    What was the name of the programme, anyone? I'd like to catch it. I remember the case very vividly, hopefully it's on catch up somewhere.

    I think what the OP is trying to say (without saying it) is that you shouldn't automatically believe some women who claim a child is in danger, and that they are probably the danger themselves.

    I'd rather act first and assign blame later when a childs safety is in jeopardy.

    that is scary thought .I have Come across people like karen Matthews who tell a lot of very dangerous rumors/falsehoods about people she even convinced a mob out side a innocent families house this house was burned down she convinced the mob and guess what her nickname was in the area Karen Matthews she all so a very long history of making false report to the police /garda did she get done for wasting police /garda time no and if other with the same mind set see this and you can play the victim we have a great chance of the likes of Shannon Matthews happen here in Ireland.

    You know a lot of dodgy people OP!

    Slovakia is ripe for it, too. And Denmark.

    Definitely.

    Not Malta though.

    There is lot of people with the same mind set of the Gimp Karen Matthews In Ireland Male /Female playing the victim card and it works so I think 100 per cent that Ireland will have a case like Karen Matthews in Time. I do Know off a lot dodge people but I do not mix with them that is the difference and as I dont live in bubble like a lot of people.

    Never said that you mixed with them but I think your focus is too much on the bad in our society.

    You'll wreck your head if you go around wondering what situations could occur in Ireland in the future.
