    The elderly man also made official complaint to gardai for trespassing on private property and stalking harassment.

    I knew we have the fine line between TLDR and multiple short instalments but an abridged full story would be appreciated.

    When, I say appreciated, I don't really want to know but it would save us all a lot of grief and wasted time.

    What he didn't know was that the Maltese Falcon was hidden at the back of the hot press the whole time.

    An elderly neighbour of mine who had a bad fall in pothole in which he broke his hand and injured his knee . He then took a case civil against council this is about 17 years ago so every now and again I would call over to see was he okay. So next he told me there is a van out side his door 24/7 and he sees a guy going into the back of the van with black out windows So next he showed me this black device with wiring and I said to him where did this come from and he said I caught the guy who is parked up in the same van putting this device in my porch door. so he called the Gardai and I was there the Gardai came and the said to him it looks like bug listening device. he never heard any more .so next a few weeks later the same van was parked out side his house again which is next to a primary school with black out windows so next he called the Gardai saying there is van parked up out side a primary school with blacked out windows acting suspicious. .next within a few minutes the Gardai car came to investigate and your guy in the back of the van was removed and the elderly neighbour was at front porch door watching this search of the van. So next the Gardai went over to my elderly neighbour did you call the gardai and he said yes then told him the guy is a private eye in the van sent to watch you.


    Am I the only one who read all that without taking a breath?

    Why on earth would a PI put a listening device in the porch??? What do you mean with a wire? Was the wire leading to the van? :pac:

    PIs are used all the time, by debt collectors, personal injury solicitors and you will NEVER know, nevermind have a bug planted in your porch!

    I've done a bit of PI work on the 17 year old scenario in the OP. I've managed to track down the PI.

    Cobblers. A crowd I know hired a posh one to follow a lad suspected of being naughty. Naughty boy drove off, Dick tailing a few cars back.. Naughty boy gets out in stopped traffic, 5 miles later, walks back and goes "If you keep following me, I'm heading up the mountains and you're not coming back", walked to his car and drove off. Dick went off the assignment.

    Plenty of people are utterly paranoid and spend their life looking behind them/at every parked car/parked van/changing phones. They very often do "know".

    It's not cobblers at all. There are plenty of people being watched and they have no clue.

    What are you trying to say OP, that the council hired this PI so they can see if he did actually hurt himself and deserved the money, or what?
    Yes and NO the council hired the PI. But the poor older gentleman broke his hand and had medical evidence X-rays to prove this so why was the council and the PI Staking and Harassment to this older gentleman was it to bully him to drop his civil case against the council ?.

    Id say part of his claim is that his enjoyment of life was affected by his injuries, he can't carry bags or heavy things. And they're there to catch him out. I don't think they're reports are allowed as evidence in court, I think the defendants barrister can just ask questions based on what they've found out
