Murder at the Cottage | Sky

he was on his way to work so very likely he is correct about the time

it's such a critical piece of evidence it's amazing that there hasn't been more interest in it .... obviously Moonie is right in identifying that it first seems to have been revealed by professional madwoman Gemma O'Doherty - though perhaps before her full-loon-period kicked in .... There certainly is (or was) a Martin O'Sullivan living in Goleen too so my own suspicion is that the sighting and report are accurate - if the Gardai had a reason to discount it then it would be great to know what that was .... but maybe they accidentally tore that page out of the evidence book too. And ate it.... by accident.

It seems like total uncanny considence that she was murdered the exact day of the pathologists birthday. Its as if somebody knew...

Fair. Although making someone dissappear seems more difficult that killing someone while leaving no evidence. Granted I have no experience of either 😀

If this case had been investigated in America, Bailey would now be a multi millionaire living in Beverly Hills burning $100 bills in his fire.

The man has been stitched up, vilified, and cut loose to the dogs for the past 25yrs.

Any chance of a career, normality, house, car and 2.4 children was stripped away from him in 1996, with not as much as one jot of evidence to place him at the blood soaked murder scene.

His media accounts are full of hateful posts. People who deem themselves better than the law, have convicted Bailey of murder regardless of there being no evidence to support it. People berate him in public everywhere he goes. He gets asked to leave eating establishments when dining with friends. He is now in his sixties and near the pension age, and is in fact homeless...

The Gards should be put on trial for their disgraceful and bias prejudice during the initial investigation. The amount of genuine leads not followed up, ignored, or not acted upon is borderline criminal in itself.

The fixation on Bailey was unwarranted. The manipulation of witnesses pressed to place Bailey in the vicinity is corruption at the highest level.

The murderer of the young Mother has not been brought to justice. And at this stage is long gone or dead.

In a western, civilised society, every citizen is afforded the right to be presumed innocent until proven guilty.

That basic right was stripped from Ian Bailey back in 1996 - And for no other reason than a corrupt police force couldn't see past their man in black.

What if it was our turn next? Think it can't happen??

Im assuming that with the case still open and not a cold case the Garda file would not be allowed to be viewed under FOI would it ?

FOI only partially includes Garda records, An Garda Síochána became subject to the FOI Act on 14th October 2015, as a partially included agency “insofar as it relates to administrative records relating to human resources, or finance or procurement matters”.  https://www.garda.ie/en/information-centre/freedom-of-information/

Law Enforcement and Public Safety have exemptions under section 32. of the FOI Act which would include files relating to an ongoing investigation.

I was listening to Joooooeee Duffy today - no choice in the matter. But he had an artist on about painting he sent to the USA via parcel direct / TNT / Fedex that went missing.

At the end of the conversation old joe asked him what hours he works on the painting as he also does "normal" work - his answer was 11 - 7 at night! Joe was perturbed as only Joe can be - "do you not sleep". Yep, 6 hours 5-11 and a nap in the morning. But he said these were "standard artist's hours" as you get the best concentration and most writers and artists do the same. Said very matter of factly and certainly didn't think his night working was anything unusual

So this shows that it fairly common for writers and artists to work overnight and nothing unusual about it. This IB's assertion that he was writing during the night is very plausible

Thanks for the information, makes you wonder how open the investigation actually is as in is there guards still actively assigned to the case or is it just for optics at this stage.
