    I think this man is a legend. Working both sides for decades and getting away with it, and eventually the Guards give him €200k to leave. Then what? Ah sure grow a load of hash, steal some farm machinery, help in the disappearance of a neighbour. All the while helping out around the area and all the neighbours loving him.

    A joyrider not going to stop at the check point? No problem, I'll just kill him with my torch.

    This guy seemed to be a right renegade cop, I'd be interested to see will any cases he worked on be reviewed.

    so being a (very young) passenger in a car that doesn't stop at a checkpoint warrants death? lovely, reactionary stuff.

    Looks like he was as bent as they come, although i suspect anything he was involved in will be brushed under the carpet.

    You're never going to get a completely corrupt free force, it's just not possible.

    On the other hand you do get Gardai getting stuck in when they can.

    "The incident occurred at around 6pm last night when two men followed a customer into a Credit Union in Portmarnock, Co Dublin, held staff at gunpoint and took money from its tills.
    A garda on a mountain bike was alerted by a passerby and challenged the men as they came out of the building.
    They fired two shots at him before pulling a woman from a car and hijacking it.
    The garda got into a member of the public's car and followed the raiders, who abandoned the vehicle at Samson Court in Balgriffin."

    The money and gun have been found.

    I agree. And yes the Garda who done this must have balls of steel, Fair play to him, Very courageous thing to do.
