The officer died on Wednesday night in Castlerea, Roscommon.
Stephen Silver of Aughaward, Foxford in county Mayo was brought before a special sitting of Castlerea District Court last night.
The 43-year-old made no reply when he was charged with the murder of 49-year-old Detective Garda Horkan.
The officers death followed a violent incident in Castlerea town on Wednesday.
Mr Silver kept his head down for much of the proceedings - but did say "unreal." and I had no firearm.
His solicitor asked for all appropriate medical assessments be carried out - and free legal aid was granted.
He will appear again on Friday at Harristown District Court via video link, and has been remanded in custody.
