George Gibney, who has been the subject of a new garda investigation since 2020, refused to cooperate with authorities. He was detained in Florida on an extradition request due to 79 charges of sexual offences against minors. A podcast titled 'Where is George Gibney?' released in 2020 reported allegations from various victims and prompted further investigations. Gibney's unstable living situation raised warnings about his potential flight risk if aware of arrest warrants. The situation reflects ongoing concerns regarding allegations of abuse and accountability in sports.
In 2020, a new investigation into George Gibney was initiated, yet he declined to cooperate, stating he would not assist gardaí or be interviewed voluntarily.

On Tuesday, Gibney was detained by US marshals for extradition to Ireland, where he faces 79 charges of sexual offences against four young girls.
