    His bogus (illegal/false asylum application) i.e. status, was reported by a newspaper, they've most likely done some research or asked a few quesitons before publishing:

    Dammit! I always forget to proofread when the Grammar Nazis are in town! One day, I will remember.... one day...

    Anyway, where were we? Oh yes. Sunday World. Case closed - next thread please.

    Ah yes, here we are: 'Person unable to spell, critises and dismisses newspaper as a potential valid source'.

    Surely someone will do a J'Depp and sue this particular newspaper for defamation etc, if as you allude to, there is 'zero truth' to the published story?

    Of course they will, any day now...

    I know, I know - doesn't proofread for typos, can't possibly be a journalist. You never see typos in a newspaper.

    No clue what "doing a "J'Depp" is. Assuming it's related to the actor.

    HE STARTED IT!!!

    Seriously, though sorry - should have nipped it in the bud with the grammar Nazi defense.

    Not that it matters: he's scum (as in the rapist) but where he comes from and how he got here is irelevant.

    Ya see, this is the point: you're not judging the individual. If you're ok being banned from somewhere for based on your nationality - fair enough - at least your concisent.

    Beyond that it's confirmation bias for xenophobia: I'd argue you're against immigration full stop and not just in cases like this - and you're more offedned by the contry/city than the actual act.

    I wonder what background checks were conducted?

    None. He was hired solely so the Nursing Home could virtue signal [Waterford Regional had one working in the clinics and he couldn't even read an X-Ray] about how diverse their staff is. I hope the family take them to the cleaners.

    This guy who couldn't read an x-ray, was he a radiologist or at least an MD? I assume so, it just sounds like you are expecting a care worker to read an x-ray

    No idea. My Sister twisted her ankle and when we went to Waterford Regional he told her that he didn't know how to read an X-Ray. This back in 2008 and I can guarantee he's still there.

    Nah - a lot of people here are twisting this into a sick racist agenda and couldnt give a **** about the woman who was raped. All they care about is "the rapist was foreign".

    Unlike people like you who don't give a **** about the rape victim and only care about being able to shout racism.

    If the staff member isn't trained/certified to give a diagnosis from an X-Ray they shouldn't. What's the conniption there? I don't give legal or fiduciary advice in a professional capacity either even though on a personal level I know how to navigate the law and balance my checkbook. I'm not certified to do so for others and will not open myself up to that liability.

    That's the stupidest comment on this thread by a country mile! It appears to assume that the Defamation Act doesn't apply to the Sunday World, which is absurd.

    I've made my point with that respect. And the stupidist comment in this thread is one the implies moderators should approve of ad homeinem comments.

    It's outrageous that you're claiming here that no checks were done. If Garda checks are not on file for any nursing home employee that nursing home can be shut down straight away by HIQA so you can be bloody sure that Garda checks are done.

    Problem is, no-one knows what crime someone has done and got away with it but unless you expect nursing homes to be physic I don't know how that can be prevented.

    I don’t know if this is racist or not but anyone coming to work in this country regardless of colour etc should have the deepest of checks done on them and any offenders who have convictions for serious crimes should be denied entry.

    I remember that case. There was a Zambian radiographer there. She had a catalogue of complaints. A young boy was xrayed three times in succession. She was not available to come to the fitness to practice hearing because she was at home and had problems with her Visa. She claim it was racist staff that were defaming her.

    Clearly they didn't check deep enough or they would have been discovered that he was here illegally.

    I have a better question, who hired her and on what grounds?
    I mean anyone in any profession will recognise another professional in a 15 minute conversation.
    I am not a radiographer but at interview stage, I would be able to draw out a technical answer from an interviewee.
    eg.
    Q. What is the worst break you ever saw in Zambia?
    A. I would expect the interviewee to use the proper bones names and parts.
    I would expect technical descriptions like lateral medial distal proximal.
    I would also expect a mathematical questions on radiation half lives.
    Then I would make mistake and expect the interviewee to correct me on a technical point.

    I mean s*it lads, I mean how hard can it be to work out how much someone knows about a subject until a spoofer becomes apparent?

    He wasn't here illegally at the time of employment. He wouldn't be able to work at all if he was.

    Stop with your nonsense.

    I think you're confusing your stories, I'm talking about the subject of the thread who was a healthcare assistant not a radiographer. :rolleyes:
