The evidence given by Ms D and her father really show that the whole accusation was done to get at McCabe because McCabe had the audacity to reprimand Ms D Father for drinking on duty. I bet it was a shock to the Ms D father that he would be pulled up on this and probably said âshure doesnât everyone do itâ which wouldnât surprise me. I guess the standard way of handling drinking on duty in the guards is for the superior officer to say to the person caught âlisten I am going to let you away with it this time but donât let me catch you againâ because they are also drinking on duty or cant be arsed doing the paperwork.
Thatâs just another coincidence
I see poor superintendent Noel Cunningham was also suffering from memory loss at the tribunal yesterday. He can remember telling Ms Dâs parents that there will be no prosecution, he can recall contacting sergeant McCabe and being left a voice message by McCabe when he was telling him that there would be no prosecution but he canât remember if he told the HSE.
Is this not very funny language for a letter from the DPP
I agree with you and the Guards, that the evidence does not warrant a prosecution
Iâm surprised that the DPP would write âthe Guardsâ.
That eviscerates Williams. The evil cunt.
Five years behind tfk on that stakes. Heâs been a staple of coty for as long as I can remember
Latest Broadsheet report doesnât read well for the motives of this retired senior Garda chap Jim Sheridan.
That report from broadsheet above. Doesnât it vindicate the lovely Ms brophy claims that she might never have heard of McCabe at the time of her error??
Her counselling session where the error was made and reported to tusla was in 2013. The broadsheet piece specifically notes that mccabe wasnât named as whistle blower until 2014
I thought it was yer wan who ârandomlyâ plucked his file out of the Tusla filing cabinet who claimed sheâd never heard of McCabe rather than Brophy. Just because McCabe wasnât mentioned as being a Garda whistleblower in the national media until January 2014 doesnât mean that the wheels of the smear campaign werenât being put in motion before then.
If thereâs ever a film made about him itâll be called âMy Left Foot (In Mouth)â.
I also thought of âIn The Name Of The Gardaâ but it just doesnât work as well.
The latest from the Charleton tribunal.
McCabe is just so unlucky.
The most recent Broadsheet articles donât read very well for retired Assistant Commissioner Kieran Kenny or that Jim Sheridan guy.
Looks like Noirin could be off to a new job.

Whats the role? Iâm not clicking on a link to the mirror.
GARDA chief Noirin OâSullivan could be leaving the force after being tipped to take up a new role at Europol.
The under-pressure Commissioner is among a number of candidates being considered for a senior position in the area of specialist enforcement, the Sunday Business Post claimed.
The job with Europeâs law enforcement agency will become available in November this year.
Since becoming Commissioner in November 2014, Ms OâSullivan has had to deal with a number of controversies â from almost one million falsified breath tests to most recently the financial scandal at the Garda Training College in Templemore, Co Tipperary.
Earlier this month she was heavily criticised in a report by the Dailâs Public Accounts Committee for her handling of the issue.
The PAC had been investigating serious financial mismanagement at the training college which it found to have 50 associated bank accounts as part of a non-transparent system of accounting.
Public funds were also being misused to pay for gifts, while EU money was being diverted into a bank account used to fund Garda entertainment.
The PAC report said the information Ms OâSullivan provided to the Stateâs financial watchdog â the Comptroller and Auditor General â âwas not accurate and therefore not acceptableâ in relation to the financial irregularities.
It also criticised Ms OâSullivan for not reporting the issues to the watchdog as soon as she learned of them.
Ms OâSullivan is on six weeksâ scheduled leave and will return on September 4.
Six weeks off
Why the fuck would Europol want that useless yoke? If true it sounds like someone in Europe has been asked to save FG the embarrassment of firing her.
