Kevin Myers: 'It is obscene that these two teenage she-thugs are free'

very sad to read this today

HERE we go again: two good men are dead and two of the participants in the events of the night that brought Mariusz Szwajkos and Pawel Kalite to their terrible end in Drimnagh two years ago have gone free.
Those culprits are both teenage girls. Subtract their contribution to that terrible evening and our two Polish visitors might be alive and well, at home with their loved ones. Despite garda wishes on this matter, the two girls -- who could at least have been charged with common assault -- have been allowed to go free. And the message to teenage she-thugs elsewhere must therefore be that different rules apply to them.
It is of course impossible to say what was the DPP's office's motivation in not seeking to prosecute the two girls. However, evidence given at the trial of David Curran, who murdered the two Poles, placed both girls at the centre of the action. It also placed one of them at the heart of a conspiracy to pervert the course of justice.
One witness described a scuffle between Pawel and a local teenage boy and how the girls attacked the Pole.
"The lad in the tracksuit, the two young girls and this older man, they were basically killing the bald chap (Pawel) on the ground," she said.
When the initial brawl was over, the two girls were left there with Pawel.
"One of the girls was carrying a bottle of vodka and the other had what appeared to be a bottle of wine."
As Pawel walked away, a witness said: "One of them gave him a clatter across the face, across the neck. He done nothing. He just crossed the road."
Another witness described the aftermath of this first serious attack. "I saw Pawel, and the two girls hitting him. I asked him if he is okay. He didn't say anything. He looked upset. I noticed a broken bottle of vodka on the footpath and Pawel had a big bump on his head."
Pawel had just minutes to live. Another witness then told of seeing Pawel (earlier) lying on the ground. "(He) picked himself up. He staggered towards the chipper."
Witness said the girls were screaming abuse at Pawel. The witness was so afraid at what he was seeing that he rang the gardai. "The bald guy was heading up the road and the girls were following him and still shouting abuse."
According to another witness, this abuse went on the lines of: "All Polish people are f****rs."
One of the girls then texted Curran four times to tell him of the affray. Ten minutes later, he arrived outside the house where the Poles lived. He drove a screwdriver into the heads of Mariusz Szwajkos and Pawel Kalite, killing both.
That night, he and one of the girls tried to concoct an alibi for them both. She later lied to gardai, denying that she and Curran had been in contact that evening.
In fact, there had been four phone calls and many texts. "Ha," chortled this comely maiden, "I just reading what it says on the news. Ha. **** xxxx." Later she texted: "Ha ha but like I can't believe it. . . Mad night xxxxx."
Later still, she texted: "Do you know what I was thinking, we could say that you and me was only in babysitting cos you and me are the only ones who don't have an alibi."
THIS foul young woman has got away with all her crimes: she participated in a violent attack on an immigrant, she was party to racist abuse and she attempted to pervert the course of justice. And like her similarly complicit girl-friend, she has walked free.
It is too grotesque, but wholly apposite, that at the same time as this trial, our feminist establishment was getting its collective knickers in a twist over a silly advertisement for crisps. Ireland, declared Fiona Neary of the Rape Crisis Network, was a place where "the casual and everyday sexual assault of women is permitted and unchallenged". (Sorry, but just who permits this?) And Susan McKay of the National Women's Council lamented that the ad was "depressing" and represented "old-style sexism".
So, here we are, 10 years into the 21st Century and state-sponsored feminism is still not managing to promote a culture of equality of legal responsibility. Instead, its primary function remains the promotion of the ideology that women are always victims and to seek out examples of such victimhood as proof of a one-way system of injustice.
Two innocent men are dead, victims of a sadistic killing. Two of the catalysts, both of them female, have walked free. And the feminist-egalitarian-multicultural quangos of the State -- that could absolutely have been relied on to denounce such an outcome if the dead had been two immigrant women and two native males had incited their killings -- have stayed completely silent.
Justice and death in modern Ireland -- of which, more tomorrow.
