Heâs obviously a muppet, 40 odd yearâs ago in SF Cork youâd get at least put into Coventry , probably a dawk- or 2,left linger and eventually be publicly fucked out/ humiliated
Consulting âthe partyâ before making a witness statement in the murder of a Garda.
I see yourself and @Tim_Riggins continue to swallow what youâre fed - I believe the actions of some party members led to the right person being convicted?
Normal
The break in the case came in February 2017 when the witness contacted Louth Sinn FĂ©in Cllr AntĂłin Watters through Facebook and told him he had information. Mr Watters put him in touch with Mr Marry.
The witness wanted to help but told the detective that, as he was a Sinn FĂ©in member, he was ânot sure where he stoodâ about making an official statement without permission, said Mr Marry.
The detective said he went back to Mr Watters for help but the councillor told him it was a matter for the partyâs head office. Mr Marry then approached a Sinn FĂ©in TD, who he declined to name.
âThey said to me: âAnything that Sinn FĂ©in can do to help justice to be brought to the Donohoe family, we will do.ââ
Mr Marry said Sinn FĂ©in confirmed the witness was a party member. âThe TD came back to me a couple of weeks later and said that man has been spoken to and told that absolutely, if he wishes to, he should to talk to the guards and make a statement.â
thats 2 threads youve posted the same story in tim, dâould blueshirts must be fierce rattled that the shinners helped solve Det OâDonohoeâs murder.
so much for FG the party of law and order
I responded to someone else bringing it up with the specific detail, so youâre wrong.
It isnât up to a political party to do so, itâs up to individuals. Telling that they need âpermissionâ
Curious bunch the shinners. Need permission from head office to be a witness to a murder, but not to nominate a racist for mayor
the person needed advice, not permission, so stop twisting it into something that it isnt
They dont need permission - the person went and sought advice off their own backâŠ
It literally said he had to check if he had permission
You need to improve the reading comprehension
The witness wanted to help but told the detective that, as he was a Sinn FĂ©in member, he was ânot sure where he stoodâ about making an official statement without permission, said Mr Marry.
Here is went through multiple layers of the party.
Why would you seek advice from a political party as to what to do if you were a witness to a serious crime?
It?
Yes it. The article that quoted Marry directly.
In this instance, Iâm sure you can figure it out ⊠I think the person was over stating the âneeding permissionâ or else the press is over stating it for obvious purposes. But surely youâre fully aware of how fucked up republicanism is in certain neighborhoods up north ⊠Youâre also aware of the fuck up made of another murder along the border a few years back with a family still looking for answers? - this came up during the election⊠maybe the person just wanted all their Is crossed and Ts dotted so thereâs nothing misrepresented and everyone is on the same page.
They obviously did need permission as the councillor told him it was a matter for head office
And they smashed the case. Unreal.
Why would you need permission from a ânormalâ political party?
Are you a Shinner again now?
Lucky the TD for Louth at the time had a direct line to the Army CounâŠsorry âHead Officeâ so he got permission.
