Good news for a change on here.

300 Convictions.

No great loss to society.

Forty Seven

Those are some numbers. Father of 15 with 300 convictions!

So, 300 x 15 = more prison spaces required.

Won Wimbledon a couple of times back in the day. Then turned to crime when his legs gave out.

Live by the burger, die by the burger.

Sir Osis of Liver.

If your name is Fat Jimmy what better way to go than choking on a burger.

Good night sweat prince.

"The father-of-15, who had more than 300 convictions"

Good riddance.

Choking is an absolutely horrible way to go but in this case probably karma for the untold amount of misery he caused.

300 convictions, what a cretin. Good riddance.

"Of his more than 300 previous convictions, a large number were road traffic offences but he also had been convicted of assault, burglary and making threats to kill.

His younger brother, crime boss Andy Connors, was shot dead outside his Saggart home in August 2014.

He was later buried in a €28,000 coffin and wearing a €40,000 Rolex watch. At the time of his death he was the leader of an extended Traveller gang with around 200 close associates.

Jimmy Connors had been targeted by the Criminal Assets Bureau (CAB) as part of its investigation into his brother's crime gang. In 2013, CAB seized almost €1m from the gang.

The 'Pale Miley' Connors gang was the top target under Operation Fiacla, an anti-burglary initiative.

The gang remains a prime target under the more recent burglary crackdown, Operation Thor."

Woohoo. These lads are going to rock up to Gorey so for the funeral and cultural ceremony. Like an army of White Walkers.

Batten down the hatches lads.

It's quite hard to nick a cooked burger when you think about it.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire of the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser Gate.

What were the circumstances, did this happen in prison in the UK?

Sonny noggs

Good riddance.

Littlehorny

Another case of the law not doing it's job.
If this scumbag had been in prison he wouldn't have caused all the misery that comes with 300 convictions and also been able to bring 15 more brats into the world.

LuasSimon

326 convictions , 15 children who no doubt also have large family’s , A good example of unlimited benefits travellers can avail of whilst law abiding people can’t afford to have children , some cost to the state

Chalk McHugh

Nice symmetry here. Lived his crime ridden life as a gypsy king but died like Elvis the king choking on a burger king. The guards couldn't put him away but irish beef got him in the end. The farmers revenge. At last. Good riddance.

PicardWithHair

I'd say the funeral will be a real meeting of intellectuals, a real classy affair.

Hello pavee, could you comment????

Dial tone....

I seem to have..... Dial tone....

How are ya boss I've been caught robbin the elders and need help.... Yes sure thing sir you must be going through untold stress and worries we will have the best free legal aid the state has to offer.... Would you need any other support as we can come over and hold your hand....

riffmongous

Might be a time for everyone to review the first aid procedure for choking..

Alternate 5 hard pats on the back with 5 Heimlich attempts. Ring an ambulance after the first 5 hard pats. If the person loses consciousness start CPR.

Bend the person forward, support them with a hand on the chest. With your other hand, kept flat, pat them forcefully between the shoulder blades 5 times

For the Heimlich, close off the space between your bodies, make a fist with one hand and place it between the navel and chest bone. Grab it with the other hand and then pull inwards and upwards.

He picked up gagging on meat in prison, and it ended up killing him on the outside.
