    Rte reporting that a blood stained note found in the car may have had info about where the body was,and the motive.

    He was to cowardly to top himself then,suicide by cop it would seem.

    Yes, reported by RTE's Paul Reynolds just now.

    It seems the murderer may have already been planning to kill himself in the car before the Gardai arrived

    Boards has responded in the majority of posts quite civilised and with empathy, yes it's kinda turned into a 'socially awkward' debate, but those things blow over and trolls are outed or move on.
    Boards ROCKS....

    No, we can't just ignore the vileness.

    They reported that a note was found in the car hours ago, well before they found the body?

    Sounds like it may have been a suicide note from what Paul was saying : he speculates that Gardai may even have interrupted him killing himself in the car


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,272 ✭✭✭theballz


    I have a source in the Garda that listed the following (that RTÉ has since confirmed so I am happy to share.)

    When the Garda approached the car the man had self harmed, he had slit his wrists and legs. They went to the car and removed the knife from before he slit his own throat. He then moved to pick up something in the car (which they thought was a gun) and they shot him.

    He was shot in upper arm shoulder area which exited through to his head. They did not intend to kill. The man had left a letter with details of the murder and intended to take his own life.

    My source is a member of the Gardai and told me this earlier today but I didn’t want to share. It sounds like RTÉ are doing the same now

    F*cking hell, that's grim if true.

    I heard the same from a person who knew Mark and the family.

    What did he say Mark was usually like?
    Poor family, they must be in bits?

    Then ban all Yes voters because someone joked about voting Yes in this thread too.

    Or just have a bit of cop on and respect and don't bring something so utterly irrelevant into this thread at all, from either side. How bout that?

    What have I got to do with it? I didn't post anything like that or suggest a certain group of people be banned to suit my own agenda.

    So many families suffering this week . Anas family , Jastines family , the Gardai and families and the families of two murderers . I hope they all get strength to cope and get support and love . My heart goes out to them all


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 264 ✭✭TheChosenOne_


    Im guessing that tomorrow mornings papers will be running with what details were in the letter?

    Or maybe we'll find out in 12months after the inquest.

    https://www.irishtimes.com/news/crime-and-law/suspect-in-jastine-valdez-case-recalled-as-a-quiet-man-1.3503362

    It says here that the guards didn't arrive at his door until Sunday...
    But it also says he is a quantity surveyor, so it may be wrong

    I'm still confused what action was taken after the initial report of an abduction.

    if the above is true I'm delighted he got shot and didn't get to kill himself, dirty rotten pr!k.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 322 ✭✭Brae100


    The poor Garda who took that shot. Did everything by the book and will likely be very seriously effected by this. Hopefully he has some condolence in knowing that the majority of people are thankful for his service and for removing this animal from society.

    Mod-Between us mods we have removed about 100 posts. All this crap stops now. In fast moving threads like this its hard to keep up but we are doing our best. PLEASE PLEASE continue to report posts and let us deal with them. DON'T react, DON'T reply. Starve the dicks of the oxygen they crave.

    Also, the 8th?. Drop that sh!te and keep it for the thread dedicated to it.
    Thread reopened

    I honestly dont think the detective that shot this scumbag will lose many nights sleep over it. Hopefully he is treated fairly by his empolyers.


  • Posts: 13,839 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Thoughts are first and foremost with Jastine’s family. Someone mentioned setting up a go fund me page. If this family needs some help financially, I would happily support a page like that

    Apparently he did everything above and beyond... The thing is with bullets they exit differently then they enter and that is impossible to control


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 228 ✭✭ConnyMcDavid


    I also feel sorry for the witness who saw the girl being shoved into the car. Can't be easy having such memories knowing what came after.

    He shouldn't feel guilty at all, his conscience should be clear. Having said that, I've never killed anyone myself so amn't really in a position to comment really. There's probably loads of issues that come with that territory such as the kids that are left behind and things of that nature. Must take a certain type to have the balls for that job.

    Me too . If anyone hears of one can they let us know . It would be a way of showing support to her family and community

    Very good idea. Are her parents in the Philippines? It would be extremely difficult for them to fly to Ireland given the expense. A fund like that would be a big help.

    Most the detectives ive met have been hardy b*stards, dubs and culchies young and old. Id imagine they would be fairly solid mentally also. Hope he's doing alright.
