In her victim impact statement, the young woman, now 19, said she thought she was going to die during the assault and is still traumatised.
A year later, on July 5, 2019, Quigley broke into the home of his elderly neighbour by kicking in the back door.
THE daughter of a pensioner who lay seriously injured in his home for five days after being violently assaulted by his neighbour has said he will never recover from the attack.
Serial offender Dean Quigley was yesterday given a six-year sentence at Dublin Circuit Court over separate attacks on his OAP neighbour as well as a 17-year-old girl.
In the first crime he punched and dragged the teenager by her hair in an early morning assault, with the victim fearing she would die as he beat her.
Over a year later, having broken into his elderly neighbour s home for a second time in a matter of months, he punched and beat the man before putting him in a headlock.

A 23-year-old man has been jailed for six years for a violent burglary that left a 75-year-old man in fear of his life.
Dean Quigley, of Temple Road, Blackrock, Dublin, was also sentenced today for a separate attack on a young woman, who thought he was going to kill her.
Attack On Elderly Man A Terrifying Ordeal
Judge Karen O’Connor described what happened to the 75yo man who was viciously beaten by Dean Quigley during the burglary as a “terrifying ordeal.”

A man has been jailed for six years for assaults on his 75-year-old neighbour in his home and on a 17-year-old female a year earlier.
During a roadside attack on the N11 in July 2018, Dean Quigley (23) punched a young woman to the face, pulled her hair and continued to punch her while she was on the ground.
The following year he twice broke into his elderly neighbour’s apartment. During the second attack Quigley assaulted him, telling his victim he would return and kill him if he told anyone what had happened.
The elderly man’s daughter found him when she visited five days later, and he was brought to hospital where he remained for a number of weeks. He was treated for a bleed on the brain and this left him at an increased risk of stroke, ligature marks to his neck and severe bruising to his chest.
