I know that some on here on boards will blame the gullibility of the elderly Irish natives who fell victim of this scam, but the reality is that there are a lot of older Irish people unprepared for this type of imported onslaught.

Nope. No sympathy as such from me. Yes, it's terrible that it happened, but.. this is the real world. Don't be a fool.

Whatever you want to call these Irish pensioners, they were still victims of criminal acts by this Romanian. The judge in the case called it "merciless exploitation".
I accept that you have no sympathy for the victims, but many of us do.

Had you done so, I'd have more belief that this is about the elderly couple, and not plugging your own bias.

So, not only was he creaming it on our social welfare system, he was also a full time professional beggar for the 7 years he was in Ireland. And you are having major issues of him depicted as a Roma Gypsy. I'll let you with this from the court details: "Throughout this investigation, Bradut Iosca showed no remorse for his actions or for the financial constraints both victims now find themselves in." Compassion would be expected by most people reading about this case, and the manner in which you are portraying the elderly victims is distasteful, and your lack of sympathy is duly noted.

I've looked at a variety of articles, and I don't see the info you just posted. Not that I'm saying it's not true, but... come on... provide the links which provide your "quoted" details.

Of course they were foolish but the question has to be how no one in their banks asked why they were taking out so much money. This guy arrived in the country without ever contributing a cent and was funded to the tune of 650 euro a week. Does anyone in SW never investigate these.

You wouldn't even guess they were Roma apart from the mother wearing long skirts. It's important to note that there are many different sub-ethnicities and clans within Roma, and their lifestyle and even their language differs greatly. You might notice some women wearing a burgundy coloured velvet skirt with a white geometric trim at the bottom and often a white headscarf-I know they're from Eastern Romania/Moldova or even as far as the Caucuses.

But since you used "" above to highlight your doubt on what I said, here you go:https://www.rte.ie/news/munster/2020/1106/1176429-sentence-deceiving-elderly/ It really was not very difficult to find. Not sure of the variety of articles that you looked at, or how hard you tried. I'm going to leave you at it from here, as your lack of sympathy in this case is somewhat bewildering.
