Jordan Mallon faced multiple charges after an incident on October 14, 2024. He pleaded guilty to assaulting Garda Cullen, behaving violently in custody, damaging a bus stop, and public order offenses. Mallon, visibly intoxicated, was arrested after damaging property. While in custody at Tallaght Garda Station, he spat at Garda Cullen, causing distress but deemed low risk medically. With a history of 38 convictions, defense cited Mallon's grief-induced alcohol issues. Since March 2025, he has committed to sobriety and rehabilitation through Alcoholics Anonymous.
During the incident, Mallon was seen kicking and smashing a bus stop shelter, demonstrating erratic behavior while intoxicated. He was subsequently arrested and taken into custody.
While in custody, Mallon spit in Garda Cullen's face and eye, causing distress despite the low risk of infection from the saliva, as it contained no blood.
