Thought LB trial was due today?

Brannigans an absolute tool to think he’ll beat his trial. I’d assume the covert evidence is staggering against him and certcumstantuinal evidence overwhelming. He’ll get a heavier sentence than Alan (6y) for going to trail.

Brady’s another tool who’ll do at least 40y, bad move what happened up the road

The Judge will throw the book at Brannigan.The others admitted their guilt so got more lenient sentences.Brannigan will get hammered for being such a brazen pr1ck and the Judge will give him 8-10 years id say.

I'd love to know how the Mansfields were allowed to operate with impunity for so long. The auld fella must have had some very influential connections in high places to be allowed to do business for so long (whether he was paying them off, or had dirt on them). I'm not normally one for conspiracies, but people in very high places must have been looking out for him for a long time.

Many a FF ard fheis was held in city west for a start.

The Satanist

There's a long list of FFers who were in bed with Mansfield Sr over the decades. How they managed to keep that relatively quiet is a mystery, especially since one of the main crooks, Liam Lawlor, is dead.

Lawlor took a lot of secrets to the grave I'd say.

Is there rumour / suspicion that Lawlor was involved in or profited from Mansfield's 'alleged' 'import' enterprise?

I remember seeing vague references to Mansfield being friendly with some high-up folks in the Gardaí, possibly a former commissioner. That usually means the journalist knows something, but can't come out straight and say it. Did Mansfield have top brass in his pocket?

Anyone see the first Ep of Darklands on VM? Any good?

New charges for Mansfield before the Special Criminal Court. Looks like they are going full on for him.

Well Patrick Hutch was let walk despite a photo of him fleeing a murder scene with a gun in hand, so who knows?!

The identifcation of that photo was a set up. Over 100 or something cops looked at photo and only 2 could say they taught it was Patrick Hutch. The judge letting the photo be used as evidence was surprising to be honest

Well, compare it to any other pictures of himself out there, and it's clearly him (unless he has an evil twin who's out to set him up!).

Regardless of how the initial identification process was conducted, you'd have to think that photo evidence was pretty irrefutable, no?

There's no way you could prove beyond reasonable doubt it was him by that photo.

As 98/100 Guards proved

The prison even forgot to bring him to court yesterday and theres be no news of it today

If they had of put that photo on Crimeline, I reckon they would have been getting alot of phonecalls and one name coming up. Gardai mightn't have known who it was. If you knew the person in the photo. you'd know who it was.

Did you volunteer to go on the stand and identify him?

No, I hadn't a clue who it was never mind who PH was. But I think He could have been Identified by the public and maybe used technology to confirm.

odd then that nearly all the guards that did know him and looked at the photo did not recognise him.
