Yes but still :eek::eek:

lads, rocko just emailed me, he says dont pass it on

A new poster purporting to be a journalist has contacted me asking questions about one of our posters who or may not be in financial difficulty abroad, this is extremely unsettling.

That’s sad to read, I thought he was a decent skin from the few posts he made here…How wrong was i… How wrong were we?

But Blanche, ya gotta help me out here, I’m $64,000 in the hole. They’re gonna take my thumbs.

He is as good as named in the comments section of the herald online. Not GAA, soccerball, rugby , swimming or athletics.

Boxing?

Take a minute to martial your thoughts.

Golf?

Miniature golf by the sound of it.

A man charged with 50 counts of sexual offences against two young girls will stand trial next year at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court

A journalist facing 50 counts of sexual offences against two teenage girls will go on trial next summer.

The 51-year-old man, who cannot be named for legal reasons, has been remanded on continuing bail, with a trial now set to begin on July 13th next and expected to last for around two weeks.

When it was suggested in discussion between Judge Mary Ellen Ring[/URL] and legal representatives for the DPP and the accused at Dublin Circuit [URL=‘http://www.irishtimes.com/search/search-7.1213540?tag_organisation=Criminal%20Court&article=true’]Criminal Court that the trial might take place next December, Judge Ring said such a delay would be unacceptable.

She pointed out the case was sent forward for trial last April and that a realistic timetable needed to be fixed for the proceedings.

Sarah Jane O’Callaghan BL, defending, told Judge Ring the trial was likely to take two weeks.

She said there was on-going communication between the defence and prosecution in relation to what she termed as “a large volume of disclosure”. She sought permission to re-mention the case should there be any issues surrounding the disclosure.

Shane Costelloe SC, prosecuting, asked Judge Ring to make “the usual witness and exhibit orders”. He said should there be any remaining disclosure issues they could be dealt with at the pre-trial hearing in June.

Judge Ring remanded the man on continuing bail, first for a pre-trial hearing for June 5th next and then for a trial on July 13th next.

Of the 50 charges facing the accused, some seven relate to alleged sexual acts with a female child under the age of 17 years on dates in 2011.

A further three charges relate to the alleged sexual assault of a female in the car park of the Clarion Hotel at Dublin Airport, in Croke Park, Dublin, and in Letterkenny, CoDonegal.

Those three alleged offences occurred in April, May and June 2007.

A further 40 charges relate to sexually-based child exploitation.

They include “inviting, inducing or coercing” a child into the production of pornography on unknown dates between December 2008 and March 2011, contrary to the Child Trafficking Act 1998.

Other charges relate to allegations the accused “invited, induced or coerced” a child “to engage or participate in a sexual, indecent or obscene act” in March 2011 contrary to the Child Trafficking Act 1998.

While the man cannot be named for legal reason is there anyone who doesn’t realise who it is yet?

Should the legal age be dropped to 16?

Also why can’t he be named and why is this taking so long to go to court?

no idea mate

Can’t be named to protect the identity of the victim.

pity you gga heads didnt give a fuck about the victim when this was going on you sick cunt

I bet no one else on here got as close to him as you did.
