    Who the fcuk is Larry Murphy

    Some lad who owns a pub in Dublin. Must have served a bad pint to the wrong person I think as folks just don't seem to want to leave him alone.

    Larry Murphy has being in almost every town/village in Ireland at this stage.
    Yep and each one was 100% false.

    He has been back in Ireland like once or something since 2010 I read.

    He lives and works in snip, why the hell would he ever come back here.

    The fact that people are saying he has served his time is laughable.

    He's the number one suspect for a whole host of crimes involving the disappearance of women over a number of years and served a paltry number of years (not enough) for a wholly depraved, extremely violent and disgusting crime against a poor young woman who onl managed to escape with her life by sheer good luck.

    He is a bad person who has shown no remorse or willingness for rehabilitation so no, he doesn't deserve to live a normal life and if he was living anywhere in my vicinity I would want to know too.

    Why is it laughable? Why did he not serve enough? What is enough in your eyes and why do you come to that number?

    As it stands right now, he IS rehabilitated as he has been out of custody for 4 years and has not re offended since.

    Ignorance is bliss, there could be 10 "Larry Murphys" living close to you.

    I never said anywhere that I endorsed it, I just despise people pretending what he did was pretty much something trivial, and acting as if he's a victim, and acting as if people expressing concern about him being at large is so unreasonable, and acting as if he's remorseful/changed.
    That does not mean I think a mob should go after him, but people can talk about him if they wish. Why are people saying "Leave him alone" too in relation to people merely talking about him? They... are leaving him alone.
    You can't chose what laws you wish to obey.
    Did... you actually say that of all things? Lol

    Why did he not serve enough?

    Let's see... He destroyed somebody's life, and very nearly ended it, too. She has to live with his depraved, disgusting, evil acts for the rest of her life, while he gets to now live the rest of his life however he chooses. Do you have any idea what kind of horrendous psychological consequences there are for rape victims? Just because the guy served a paltry handful of years does not mean she received justice. She has to live with what he did for the rest of her life.

    An appropriate sentence for what he did is life without parole, so that there is absolutely NO risk of him ever hurting another woman in that way again.

    He completed no rehabilitation programme. He is not rehabilitated. He hasn't offended in four years? That's not even a long time.

    I don't see how you can say somebody who has never shown an ounce of remorse is now rehabilitated.

    And did he say "She was lucky" that she didn't die?
    has shown no remorse or willingness for rehabilitation
    "Leave the poor guy alone. :("

    So non offending that we know of (and only because he's had the cops breathing down his neck if that's the case) makes him a paragon of rehabilitation then? :rolleyes:

    i used to frequent a rather quint pub, the very old fafhioned owner did not like bad language or worse bad manners, gimmie a pint always got the deaf ear, a new customer was under constant watch until they met with the owners approval, if they did not they got a dash of fairy liquid in their pint, after which they rarely if ever returned.

    I know, absolutely unbelievable. Goes some way too towards understanding what's gong on in his sick fcuk head.

    Not committing further crimes would be a good enough indication of rehabilitation in my view. No you're right 4 years isn't that long, but I believe that most criminals re-offend somewhere within that time period.

    From reading the reply's here its clear most think our justice system needs to be harsher, more punitive and retributive yet these do nothing to stop crime so why call for them when alternative approaches have been shown to be much more effective?

    Jesus can people not leave him alone.

    well if he had of left those women alone I'm sure people would leave him alone

    Wait... what mob violence has Murphy been subjected to? Oh yeh... none. It is only just talk, no need for losing the run of oneself.

    I think in most cases, our justice system is fine. In a hell of a lot of sexual violence crimes, it's far from fine, thanks in part to that tool Carney.

    Punishment does plenty to stop crime - while they're locked up, they cannot hurt any more innocent people.

    Accepting and participating in a rehab programme would be of great help to lots of offenders and if they successfully complete it, and undergo psychiatric evaluations to prove they are a low risk person, then yeah, let them out after 10-15 years.

    Someone who shows no remorse and does not participate in rehabilitation treatment should be locked up with the key thrown away.

    Rape destroys lives and some of the sentences for it are a joke.

    Sorry Fred but no...his debt to society has not been paid...he gave his victim a brutal and horrific time.She was convinced she was going to be murdered and lets face it he would have had the two hunters not arrived on the scene and disturbed him.She will most probably try to commit suicide during the course of her life or as a result of this attack never live a normal life...who could? Could you?
    The very fact the guards are keeping tabs on him suggest to me this wasn't his first foray into rape and attempted murder.
    By your logic is the rapist of those two girls aged 6 and 9 to be allowed the same sentiment of having paid his debt?...of course not don't be silly..
    If this happened to someone you knew could you sit with your faith in the justice system to carry out the correct punishment?..I'll admit I couldn't because to some and I include myself believe that pitchfork justice is the only way a heinous wrong such as this can be righted in the eyes of the victim and all it affects.

    But I... thought you were all, like, against the gardaí and socking it to the man. Only in favour of vigilantism when it suits?

    So what is the point of all this "talk"?

    For the majority - to know where he is, so that people can feel protected and safe, knowing he is not in their area, or take precautions to feel safe, if he is.

    For the minority - to make silly empty threats about violence, based on moral outrage at his crimes.

    If he moved into my area, i wouldn't leave my home alone. I don't believe in mob mentality justice, but if he were to move to my area, I'd sure as hell want to know so I could protect myself.
