IRELAND - Prosecutors consider charging Conor McGregor amid presidential bid
(whatever)"Irish prosecutors are considering charging Conor McGregor with inciting hatred following his announcement to run for president of Ireland. This development comes after McGregor's recent invitation to the White House and his subsequent declaration of candidacy.
The Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) in Dublin is reviewing social media posts by McGregor from 2023, as reported by the Irish Independent. The National Bureau of Criminal Investigation (NBCI) has submitted a police file regarding these posts, which could lead to charges under Ireland's speech restrictions laws. If charged and convicted, McGregor could face up to seven years in prison.
One controversial post by McGregor occurred on the eve of the Dublin riots. In response to Ukrainian refugees being allowed to vote in local elections, he stated: "Ireland, we are at war." [More]:
