A MAN WHO was previously convicted of the manslaughter and rape of a woman was today jailed for eight-and-a-half years for attacking a 29-year-old man and his 66-year-old mother with a clawhammer in their Cork home.
Following the frenzied attack in March of last year Horgan sent a video of a distressed, injured and moaning Baker to his girlfriend. He knocked on the door of the victims house shortly at around 2.30pm on 26 March 2022. When Mary O’Callaghan opened the door he pushed past her and hit both her and her son with the claw hammer.Horgan then hit him again with the clawhammer while he was vulnerable and on the floor.
The court heard that Horgan seemed composed as he left the scene. He returned to the shed and put his original clothes back on. “I didn’t realise at this stage but he had also broken my right hand with a blow of the hammer. After I said to him that Hassan was dead, he then left. I really felt my son Hassan was dead as the place was like a blood bath.
“When I fell to the ground, I was then beaten with a hammer using full force to the side of my head by Ian Horgan. “My speech has been affected majorly and I I have to seen an occupational therapist. I feel embarrassed talking to people. I still continue to see doctors and I am due to go for another brain scan soon to determine the full extend of the damage done internally.”
