is that really of consequence mate? She worked there for 14 years, youâd imagine she worked with the lads that went after her for either all of that time or for as long as they worked there.
You are trying very hard to justify/excuse this
Iâm not at all excusing it. Youâre attributing personal animus to everyone involved though, when it probably came from one or two higher-ups.
So you think itâs ok for a guard to behave inappropriately because they are commanded to? They knew what they were doing mate.
Where did I say that?
You said Iâm attributing personal animus to everyone involved and that it came from a higher up.
By deduction I assumed you meant the rank and file werenât to blame because they were told to go after her.
Please correct me and make clearer your meaning if that wasnât the case.
Neither of us have all the facts. Youâve leapt on a theory of a DPP-involved state conspiracy. I think itâs a HR disciplinary issue, not a criminal matter. Youâve a lot of emotional bunkum there about lads turning on her after 14 happy years working cheek-by-jowl together, which is all in your head really. Lynn will retire out of this Iâd imagine. Iâll leave you there, I donât care enough about this to back-and-forth all day.

Ever doctor in Ireland throws out sicknotes like confetti.
Yet youâve got extremely defensive about the indefensible regarding the Gardai again.

Youâve exposed me again 
why did it get all the way before a judge then?
I agree. Neither of us will be swayed on this, despite you inadvertently agreeing with everything Iâm saying while still somehow managing to argue the point. Quite impressive internetting all told. Well done

Sigh.
she went to her brother for medical care. Youâd have to assume she trusted him.
The Guards have admitted that she was genuinely not well enough to work.
Yeâre doing acrobatics here lads.
At the trial last month, Supt Des McTiernan told the court that he believed Ms Margiotta when she said she was sick. He said he was investigating whether the certs were used to obtain sick leave by deception. Whether she was sick or not was irrelevant
a 4.5 year case opened for pulling a sickie.
Ireland in a microcosm. People think its perfectly acceptable for someoneâs brother, who isnât their registered GP, to sign them sicknotes to their hearts content, under the stamp of another doctor.
Lads still think theyâre getting one over on the brits.

It is not normal for oneâs brother to be ones doctor. In fact it odd in the extreme. You obviously have personal issues with this case, so Iâll bow out.

it isnât illegal. Itâs not regulated in the least.
Acceptability and illegality are two completely different things.
It was a matter for HR not the criminal courts.
Sigh
is it illegal?
