Is that only if they are middle class professionals? I don’t think I have many people seeking to keep the names of working class/unemployed accused confidential?
Did many people seek to keep the names of the Anabel’s 4 confidential?
Can’t remember bro.
I think all crimes. Try rebuilding your life if acquitted. It also influence juries for better or worse. Is it relevant where he lives or what he does?
Back of the Herald today.
‘Dawson urges IRFU to tie O’Brien and Heaslip down’
A bit insensitive I would have said.

are you saying that Jamie Heaslip has form here?
So why did you only pipe up today.
High profile cases like this highlight it as an issue.
The NUI angle that the press has zoned in on in a big way is interesting. Obviously it helps identify the calibre of person we’re talking about. After all that’s essentially why we voted to keep the Seanad. It does appear that at this morning’s proceedings in Kingstown, Graham spoke firmly and advised the court that he was not guilty of the said charges. He is a graduate and businessman, a man of standing and he enjoys the presumption of innocence. His word must be taken and he has helpfully clarified the position.
You’d imagine that matters will now proceed with caution, particularly in light of what happened the last time an architect was in a spot of homicidal bother. When attempts were made in that unfortunate case to resolve matters by applying a bit of common sense we ended up with the resignations of a Supreme Court judge, a High Court judge and the Dublin County Registrar.

While I’m all for giving university graduates preferential treatment in criminal matters, I don’t consider the National University of Ireland and its affiliated colleges to be proper universities.
Could you expound for the expats? Is this the attorney general case involving the fat lad from Goldman Sachs?
I believe Manuel was referring to the Phillip Sheedy case.
Who is he? I missed that completely.
He was a man with eclectic taste by the looks of it.
Opportunistic murderers can’t be choosers
I can certainly understand your misgivings but in the interests of fairness, one would have to grudgingly acknowledge that they were constitutionally recognised as universities in 1937. Mind you the fact that the four National University of Ireland outfits have just three Seanad seats between them, the same total that Trinity College has in its own right, shows where they rank in the grander scheme of things.
What I find particularly risible is the Dublin & Limerick NIHE’s claiming that they are universities.

You’re confusing universities and colleges there mate.
Graham denied bail.

Hopefully one of his colleagues has updated his email “out of office” notification:
“Graham will be out of the office for the foreseeable future as he’s in police custody charged with murder. Please forward all architectural design queries to…”[/QUOTE]
Graham’s trial will seemingly be getting under way on Monday.
