    Your kidding right?
    Surely a judge would sign that 'off' in seconds...

    An hour or two to pull the data from cell masts. Google timeline doesn't seem to upload activity on my phone for a few hours.

    My op was "how often is someone shot by gardai"

    Abbeylara was 18 years ago

    You said it was the last resort. From memory abbeylara was anything but a last resort band resulted in a commission of inquiry which went against AGS

    The state might be able to unlock a passcode. Might.

    Read up on the unreal Garda work in the Elaine O'Hara case. Really fantastic police work. The technological side of things was really impressive.

    Think my question was missed by the poster here who also has a 171 quashqai.

    Does the gps within the car log data for a few days?

    Potentially a couple of seconds. If location services are on on his phone, they just need yo open Google maps and go to the timeline and it'll all be there.

    Is this reliable? My location is turned on most of the time and ive checked back the last few weeks and im getting "no visited places"

    If it turns out this woman is dead, then the gardai done us all a massive behaviour by sending that scumbag to the morgue.

    You might be right, but since none of us know what happened, I'll propose another scenario.

    ***The below is totally made up by me***

    Accidentally knocks the girl down in the car on the road and injures her. Panics and tries to bring her to hospital, she resists and wants an ambulance, but he puts her in the car anyway.

    On the way to hospital she dies. He panics and thinks he go to prison for it. Becomes totally irrational and wants to kill himself rather than face up to it. Garda find him, he gets hysterical and they shoot him.

    ****

    See, we can all speculate and come to our own conclusions.

    I think we can all agree they are asking WHY WHY WHY did they kill him, he knows where she is.
    There would be something seriously wrong if they were not questioning why the needed to kill him.

    Maybe he was going to or in the process of cutting his own throat or wrists or something , who knows ?

    All I can think is that the decision to shoot him is definitely not one that would have been the first option to take tbh , it would have been a last resort imo.

    I don't think anyone is speculating as specifically as you did just there though!

    Mod-BorneTobyWilde do not post in this thread again. reason- trolling


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,026 ✭✭✭Amalgam


    RTE stated they traced him through phone/mast activity. Hopefully that will help in the search for the unfortunate victim.

    The amount of anti AGS curmudgeons is just.. I knew someone who was all about the AGS minding their own business, until he himself was burgled. He couldn't get to the phone quick enough..

    Wasn't there a case in the US where the FBI had to get apples help to unlock a phone belonging to a suspected terrorist and Apple told em basically to go and sh1te and they weren't able to access it

    It reminds me a bit of the O’Dwyer case. He was to his family a normal family man as was Larry Murphy. Both of the above went home and acted as normal after murdering their vicims.

    Mark Hennessy didn’t though. He had been missing since yesterday. He never returned home as planned. Does that give us some hope that Jastine is out there somewhere?

    It's possible he realised that he was caught. There was an eyewitness who claimed they seen a woman being bundled into a car and another eyewitness who seen a women in distress in a moving vehicle.

    O'Dwyer was clinical. It seems this man was not. We might guess it was unplanned or poorly planned.

    Which might suggest it was a recent decision.

    Which might help suggest the motive.

    She was abducted...bundled into the car against her will.

    I would imagine they were all over it before the car reg was released to the public.


    IT saying the Guards went to the registered address earlier today, and spoke to the suspects wife who is the registered owner. They then learned he had been out with the car since last night.

    https://www.irishtimes.com/news/crime-and-law/man-wanted-in-connection-with-missing-woman-dies-after-being-shot-by-garda-1.3501945

    ...fingers crossed for a good outcome.

    How accurate is it anyway? I always thought that unless you used it for satnav, it only tracks the general area. And if GPS is switched off, how accurate would it be anyway? Genuine question as I'm curious how it works.

    .

    How do you know that?

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_John_Carthy

    Yes but the criticism stemmed from management's handling of the overall situation as opposed to decisions made by the ERU to eventually fire on Carthy and yes it was absolutely a last resort.

    Yes. It's an opt in service. iPhone frequent places is another opt in but is on by default.

    Yes there was but the FBI then bypassed apple and had a 3rd party open the phone which pissed off apple

    I just looked at my timeline there.
    It was mostly accurate, except for a 60km odd cross country journey I didn't take this morning.

    Which I've addressed in the above theory. I made it up, but it's plausible at the very least, is it not?

    It's such a bizzare chain of events up to now, anything is possible.

    Pretty accurate. Attached is a redacted version of mine for a portion of today. It's accurate to within a few metres.

    Its not reliable enough to navigate with but as a record of criminal activity its pretty good in built up areas. The neighbour cell table can be 10-12 CIDs long, that gives you a very strong gist of triangulation. Rurally it might be 1-2 long leaving you with a strip 1km wide and 4km long.

    I've been in work since 1 this afternoon so only heard about this case now. If it's the guy named above then he lives locally and I would know him to see. Obviously there are bad eggs everywhere but it's strange to think of them being so familiar.

    I really hope Jastine is found safe very soon, her family must be going through hell. Also the man's wife and children, awful for all involved.
