    Even with the phone evidence being admitted, I'm surprised he was convicted. I think he did it for sure, but the evidence against him was weak enough.

    I see it the same mid trial I had him walking. But if the state want you they will get you. But convinced on EU directive he walks.

    Is it not already a done deal. Alan Wilson won the same ruling. If he wins it hell never do another day in jail. Unsafe conviction then due to media hyperbole he will have an "unfair retrial" Graham more then likely back on his sick websites come end of summer.

    Can I ask why you refer to this excuse of a human being using his first name above……?

    It was not they had him hooked

    They had him saying what he was going to do then it happens and the phones end up in a reservoir 6 hours walk away from where the body was found ruling out suicide

    What should I call him and i ll address as such from now on.

    He who must not be named.

    Gradwy

    Anything else you'd like Me to call him. He's still a human being, you don't have to like or agree with him. But I've been in prison and I feel I'm no position to judge.

    Good question and I'd also like to know who is representing him in this action. There's no way this guy should be freed, it was clearly shown during the trial how dangerous he is.


  • Registered Users Posts: 407 ✭✭LMHC

    He wouldn't have legal aide. Guys filthy rich.

    This is it in a nutshell. Regardless of what comes out of Europe he is not getting out of jail. No judge in Ireland will allow that to happen.

    The law is the law. A judge can't lock him up illegally, no matter what he did.

    No he wasn't on legal aide. He sold his home for 1.6 million.

    Yes he was, the home was sold after the trial

    Did you think he owned it outright?

    And you have no idea how much these things cost

    The house sold for say 600k

    Stop making things up, it was a 3 bed house of horrors

    They ruled the only evidence that corroborated the states case was illegal. Alan Wilson won his murder trial on mariora on same ruling.

    Without the phone data, his conviction is flawed and will be quashed.
    The government will seek a retrial but we don't yet live in a country where internment or holding people in prison at the whim of a Government and in the absence of due process is the norm.

    To be fair the house only went up for sale 2 or 3 years ago. I remember reading it was broken into a few times after being empty for years.

    Edit - https://m.independent.ie/irish-news/news/sale-agreed-for-murderer-graham-dwyers-former-family-home-38874893.html
    It was up for 600k alright.

    At least use his surname like everyone else here…..addressing him by his ‘first name’ suggests respect and that is the last thing this absolute abomination deserves….by the way if you have met him is it true that he is only a 5’ ft 2’’ inch short ass…?

    If released he would probably be immediately recharged with Murder and remanded again. They changed the law in Ireland regarding being trialled twice on the same offense. There appeared to be ****loads of evidence against him at the trial so even without the omitted evidence that he appealed the state could still have a successful case against him. I would hope so anyway.

    No, 5 ft 7 or 8, normal enough

    Not a short ass then but nothing huge either…..I wonder has he got a ‘hiding or two’ since his sentence began…? I’d say There are plenty Who Would fancy turning him into ‘A punch bag’

    You are a bit harsh on the barrister. Everyone is entitled to a legal defence. He is only doing his job.

    Article 40.1 of the Irish Constitution says the State cannot discriminate between citizens and denying Dwyer legal representation would breach those rights (no matter what he did or is accused of doing).

    Well here read this then.

    The State’s appeal over a High Court ruling upholding Dwyer’s challenge to a 2011 data retention law has important implications for the investigation and prosecution of serious crime and may also impact on Dwyer’s separate appeal over his 2015 conviction for the murder of childcare worker Elaine O’Hara.

    Dwyer's challenge was upheld this means he won. Then the state appealed it.

    The State appealed it to the Supreme Court who referred it to Europe and that's where we are at now.

    Dwyer has won the first round, but it's not over yet. But given other EU rulings on similar data cases, Dwyer seems to be on the front foot - unfortunately.


  • Registered Users Posts: 407 ✭✭LMHC


    I understand the crime was unsavory but we need to be logical he still has rights.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,150 ✭✭✭Immortal Starlight


    He might have rights but I also have the right to hope he never again will see the light of day.

    Who are we to judge a man who premeditated the murder of a mentally ill woman and then set about dismembering her remains and subsequently buried them in several locations?

    You know what? You've convinced me, Graham Dwyer poses to threat to society, we should release him and punish the Gardai for persecuting him.

    This is interesting if it's true. You obviously spent time with him if you know of his intelligence and deviousness, what was he like to be around? Where did you work together in the prison? Can you shed any light on him, his attitude, his behaviour, his interaction with prisoners and prison staff?

    There wasn't much hard evidence against Dwyer to be honest. Take away the phone evidence and he could walk in a retrial.

    I was surprised he was convicted at all tbh. I really don't want to get into the nitty gritty (gross) details of this case, but I feel good lawyer would have a lot to work with in his defense.

    Been waiting to hear an update on this in fact, thanks OP.
    (***not that it matters but I do believe he's guilty and an absolute scumbag)
