    Brilliant

    Sounds like a top crotch guy.... I mean top notch.....

    Imagine that as your neighbour, rapist of children, wonderful country we live in where he will walk free again to commit more rapes etc....

    I like the way he was on first name terms with the barrister he wanted killed.

    the barrister is likely 100 times richer and smarter than him, and now morally justified.

    "The only reason he’s not dead is because I decided to do it myself. I could have got someone else"

    said the rapist locked in a prison, found with a phone up his arse.

    That barrister, Tony McGillycuddy, has a good reputation, supposedly one of the brightest minds in the legal profession. Apparently he's the sort of guy who could make a lot of money, if he wasn't so concentrated on criminal work. He does it by choice.

    Pretty sick that someone so well-intentioned would have his life threatened by these lowlifes, tbh. I hope the judge throws the book at them.

    Read the article in disbelief, clearly unhinged, potentially very dangerous. Some of the accusations levelled by the defendant against some legal representatives were beyond extraordinary. Whilst clearly not one to listen to legal advice, I'm sure whomever is currently representing him advised him to shut up or say absolutely nothing, I thought the judge should have considered silencing him.

    This all said, I hope the phone discovered on his person and in a very unusual place was water proof :)

    Joking aside, I'd certainly be very, very concerned if it we're me this individual was making threats against.

    Subjecting people to musicals is a cruel and unusual punishment, and in breach of the The European Convention on Human Rights.

    “ He said he was using between €30 and €50 a day in credit, and that Ms Kangley was one of a number of people topping it up for him.”

    WTF, €50 a day in phone credit? Was he still on some Eircell “Ready To Go” plan from 2003?

    You’d wonder whether his solicitor will get into “hot water” over it. If it’s claimed it was provided under duress he should get a few more years.

    got into a struggle with prison officers who spotted a white mobile phone sticking out from between his buttocks and seized it.

    I really hope the prison officer was wearing gloves
