    If the majority of boards.ie posters think that acting how he acts in that pub is normal then honestly I feel sorry for the boards.ie community.

    You saw a 20 second clip on loop.
    How do you know how he acts in pubs?

    I wasn’t talking about the pub video. Can you try and follow the thread.

    I have to say I thought the same. I can't imagine seeing someone bundled into a boot of a car or seeing someone distressed in the back and being worried enough to call the guards but just let the car go. Surely you could try following at a distance. Worst case it all turns out to be a misunderstanding, best case it could help someone.

    Shock most likely. Easy to say the witness should have followed but I'd imagine they were still processing what they saw long after he'd left the scene. That person has nothing to feel guilty for. Getting the car reg was enough.

    Honestly I get a bad vibe watching that video how he stands, his posture, his eyes. Somethings off with him

    The video of him in the pub he comes off as a bit of an a***hole (to me), not unusual for some people with a few drinks on them but nothing more than that imo.

    No context to that video of him in the pub whatsoever.

    Those women could easily be part of his family.

    Absolute nonsense from people saying that “you can tell hes a physco”.

    Anyone can look weird when framed in the wrong way.

    Exactly... context is king, unless you're a pseudo crime profiler..... like at least half the people on this thread.

    Had no hope? He was married with children!

    Not to be bad but for all we know his wife was like him (not the murderer part the socially awkward part)

    Watching that video of him in the pub shows he was utterly disastrous with women and they weren't even lookers judging from their bodies...

    Exactly. A snippet of film and from that some people can see what he us potentially capable of. Ridiculous.

    Go into any pub and you will see men just as awkward.

    I know it sounds morbid but I really hope the time of death was shortly after the time of abduction. I'd hate to think she went through an ordeal like Ana Kriegel. It's really hard to keep faith in humanity when you read about these incidents.

    I am in pubs regularly sober and everyone looks like that

    Not wanting to slam the Guards here. I know real life is not CSI.

    Was the reg known on Saturday? Do we know if he had his phone on him and switched on Saturday? Just wondering about the possibility of locating him through his phone. Presume he had it switched off.

    Doesn't seem like a well planned attack if he's driving with her visible in the car on the N11.

    If that one person hadn't seen him punch her and abduct her we wouldnt be here posting about it


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,478 ✭✭✭wexie


    That clip says all we need to know about him and his attempts with women. The guy was socially awkward, desperate for women but couldn't chat them up to save his life.

    A lot of Irish men are just as awkward no one is denying that I am just saying that watching the video and knowing what we know now its hardly surprising.

    And you're saying this off course in your capacity as a criminal psychologist* right?

    Right?

    (*it's okay you can google it)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 68,173 ✭✭✭✭seamus


    Apparently the context of the pub video is that it was taken on Saturday night.

    That may be completely wrong though.

    I never said that. I said knowing what we know now its not surprsising to see socially awkward man who can't chat up women in the video.

    Are you denying that most men who engage in these sort of crimes aren't socially awkward and resentful towards woman because of their lack of success?

    Also I'll defend my country and say that while Irish man aren't as smooth as say French or Italians I would argue that most Irish men are not as bad as the creep in that video.

    It doesn't matter as I can't say. We will go by whats reported and that one driver saw her in the front passenger seat in distress as it doesn'ta ffect my argument.

    He knew she was in enough danger to call the guards but didn't bother to stay on the phone to them and follow them giving the guards updates on their location. A life could have been saved.

    We don’t know anything about this driver. Personally I would not be able to simultaneously drive and make a phone call, moreover especially as my whole body would be shaking with fright having just witnessed somebody in great distress, all happening out of the blue. I remember having to stop my car at the scene of an accident where a motorbike went across me and into the sea (thankfully not fatal) in a remote place with little traffic in Scotland. My hands were trembling and could dial even 999. That’s just me, maybe everyone else is brilliant at multitasking successfully in a state of sudden shock.

    Did he realize that he had been seen abducting her I wonder?
    Because if he thought he hadn't been seen, he would have come home that night to pretend everything was normal.
    I'm just trying to piece together if he had banked on not being seen and getting away with it or was it a moment of madness and he snapped not caring about the consequences?

    To thine own self be true

    In fcuking fairness.
    Are you 17?

    No mate but they aren't good looking women no matter how you try spin it. I am just being honest. If he can't even chat up them then he probably couldnt get any woman.

    I'm not sure if bring successful with women matters when you're married with 2 kids

    Socially awkward
    Rejected by women.

    Why don't you google the FBI's profile of serial killers who target women?

    Hindsight is a great general. Easy to sit and type how you(not you personally) could have done better and stopped this tragedy occurring. I hope the community there can be some comfort to the victims family. I recall the parents of the Swiss girl got some solace from the kindness of strangers after the pond scum who murdered her in Galway. The same for the parents of the teenager in Kildare
