He rents a lock-up facility and a postbox to store his personal belongings. As part of his bail conditions he must sign on twice daily at Harcourt Terrace garda station. Mr O'Grady also gave an undertaking earlier not to seek travel documentation and has surrendered his passport to gardai. The material allegedly confiscated included images and videos on a USB key, an external hard drive and a laptop. Det-Gda Doyle had told the court earlier: “We are talking about thousands upon thousands of images of child pornography. Children from the age of two and three up to teenage boys and girls.”
