Gangland Shootings [Mod Note in Post #1]

The guards would have known for at least a week that this trial was going to collapse, probably more. In that time they let Patrick Hutch know of a threat against his life, and they would have been making policing plans for the days, weeks and months after his release.
Like another poster said there is no way they would have left an unknown waiting on a motorbike outside the courts. Whoever it was driving the bike, the guards knew, it would have been planned beforehand and they likely got protection to and from the courts at least until they were out of the city.

I'd say you're right here if you look closely at the picture the motorbike is coming out of the underground car park whose entrance is on Infirmary Road next door to the Department of Defence. Thats a pretty secure car park used to transport suspects in convoy into the court complex. Its also where judges and court staff park so you don't get in there without permission, especially not on the day that Patrick Hutch is appearing. The biker must of got permission/direction from AGS to use that carpark to ferry Hutch away. It shouldn't be surprising, the Gardai got completely caught on the hop for the Regency attack in the first place so the last thing they wanted was a gangland hit within a few hundreds metres of the central criminal courts, it was in their interests that he got away safely.

The courts were crawling with armed Gardai from the ERU, it was actually an opportune time for the gangs to conduct a hit in another part of the city while all Garda resources were tied up in Parkgate St.

I wouldn't say that now, but they are at it. We would be fùcked without the Brazilians, there would be nobody to drive the rickshaws.

Actually who would be f.ucked is the meat industry and dairy industry, as most of the workers in this sector in rural Ireland are Brazilians.

Also, and slightly off topic, I think we can all agree that Paul Williams is one of the worst scumbags that this country has ever suffered.

How many people has he killed, assaulted or intimidated? how many lives did he ruin with drugs? how many people live in fear of him and his associates?

Well said.

Secure gated community in Ballybough? I can't say I'm familiar with it lol

Don't know about Ballybough but it didn't help Garath Hutch. The area he was shot was gated.

Brazilians arrived here in 1999 from a city called Anapólis. They were brought here to work on meat factories with contract and work visa as they were considered critical skill. Don't know really why someone mentioned them in this topic.

They were mentioned by a poster in a previous page as being more prolific than Nigerians in terms of more and more arriving.

Brazilians were of course brought over to work in the beef sector as you say. Thanks.

The more recent Brazilians coming to Ireland are 'students' of English.

There were 9,225 Brazilians 'studying' English in Ireland in recent years.

When Paul Williams used to write for the Sunday world a few years ago I thought he was absolutely brilliant.

Yes I know. I tend to avoid those students as they are urban and from middle higher class and call us "caipira" (the same as "culchie"), but those people are harmless, they can't even cook because they had a maid (something common in Brazil), and most of them use drugs. They also love to fly to other european countries and post their pictures to show how happy they are. And despite going to school their english is very poor, I never went a single day to school here and arrived with very little vocabulary, yet I can communicate better than them.

The Brazilians that work in meat factories across rural Ireland are the opposite of those students. Usually religious Christians from poor stratum, humble and friendly people that behave and affraid of losing their job.

What's the story with Alan ''Fat Puss'' Bradley now, is he still with us, in or out or what?

Those photos were in the paper the other day (The one without the helmet definitely was).

Very sad about John Lawless. I hope the f**king scumbags are caught and beaten every day in prison. Cowards.

What's the harshest sentence these guys have ever gotten?

Brian Meehan has served over 20 years and is expected to spend the rest of his life in prison.
