Flynn was found not guilty of the additional charge of robbery of €7,000 at the Credit Union. Although the court believed he was part of the gang and was involved both before and after the robbery, there was no evidence whatsoever placing him at the scene of the credit union itself. Mr Justice Hunt remarked it was impossible to confirm Flynn's direct involvement without a confession or any forensic evidence, and there were too many other possible participants who might have been at the scene to narrow down suspicion to Flynn only. Flynn was remanded in custody for further proceedings due in November 2023, with sentencing scheduled for 21 December 2023. 1014:), arrested eight suspects as part of an investigation into alleged witness intimidation and perverting the course of justice during Brady's trial. During the murder trial, a video was taken on a mobile phone of a witness statement included in the book of evidence, and the footage posted on social media, with threats added to this video against the witness. Trial judge Mr Justice Michael White described this as "the most outrageous contempt of court" he had ever seen. It was reported that the prosecution was aware of "very serious" attempts to intimidate its key witnesses and efforts to collapse the murder trial. Reportedly as a result of witnesses being interfered with and intimidated, five witnesses did not testify at the Central Criminal Court. Aaron Brady was among those arrested on suspicion of witness intimidation. 1243:

However, according to the sworn testimony of the ex-girlfriend of Treanor, when she spoke to him at their house at 9:45 pm on the night in question he was dressed normally and did not have wet hair. Since the credit union was exactly a 15-minute drive away from their house, Guerin asserted that it was highly unlikely that Treanor would be able to make it home in time to get cleaned up / dried off and dispose of dirty clothing within the timeframe allowed. He also raised the evidence of a witness who had seen a Volkswagen Passat (possibly the getaway vehicle) about five minutes after the robbery, driving at high speed the wrong way around the

Clogherhead a few days earlier. Condon also highlighted the sworn evidence of a local farmer who saw two cars travelling towards the burn site on the night of the robbery, one of which was a BMW with blue headlights. As Flynn's car did not have similar coloured headlights, it could not have been his car and therefore the prosecution had failed to link him to the burn site of the alleged getaway vehicle either. He also dismissed the prosecution's theory of Flynn testing police response times, as gardai were highly unlikely to treat a report of intruders at a yard with the same urgency as an armed robbery on a financial institution where shots were fired resulting in death or serious injury.

Simultaneously, the authorities had not presented any evidence on who was doing the "persuasion" or how they were doing it, therefore they could not prove any criminal act had occurred.
