In The Courts

Fairly sure I’ve told this story before here.

By all accounts he is an utter cunt. I worked with a woman who used work in the Goat during her college years. She was first on the scene helping when he was shot. Not one word of thanks or gratitude did he get from her after in her time there. She said he was an awful ignorant prick to work for.

Is there a chance she shot him?

The court was told that payments of €5,000 had been made to each of the two men as an expression of remorse, and that separate civil proceedings taken by the victims against the siblings have since been resolved.

wonder how much that cost them?

It sounds like they fairly lost it with the two older fellas. I’d love to know what they were drinking or consuming.

Refusing to give your name to Gardai wouldn’t be a great idea either.

There’s no great mystery there. It was absolutely certainly cocaine and common or garden alcohol. That’s the mix that makes some people act like that.

She should of given the leg a sly kick.

Thanks, I’m not too familiar with the cocaine scene apart from hearing that it seems to be everywhere.

I’ve read the article on the sentencing and it says they appeared stunned by the verdicts, probably thought they would get off as it was their first time in trouble.

Tough for the kids having their mother locked up for a year, not sure on the brother’s situation.

They might be better off.

Disappointing to see this event going ahead in a Chawke Group pub at the weekend but I guess violent crime isn’t frowned upon within Limerick GAA circles, the same way it is across broader society.

I wonder will this impact on their ability to run the pubs in the future. Don’t you have to be a fit and proper person to hold a publicans licence?

People in glass houses…

No chance for them to leg it.

That’s what I used to believe

You’d have some neck to defend what he said

Huh?

Violence is condoned within Limerick GAA circles that is not seen elsewhere.

I meant @glasagusban was trying to defend against your statement. Regardless of the thuggery in Tipperary or elsewhere, the lack of condemnation of acts within Limerick among the Limerick fraternity hangs over every achievement before or after.

Apologies I took you up wrong.

We may have our differences on certain topics, but you have always been a very fair and balanced poster when it comes to violent crime and thuggery in society.

I’m only guessing here but I wonder is it their monied background and getting that start in life means the judge has held them to a higher standard than the average offender in this type of case.
