Anti-Vaxxer arrested over death of Donegal COVID patient

Exactly, the poor man is dead due to this utterly stupid fool.

Hopefully this eejit gets a few years behind bars.

But he'll probably play the mental health card - in reality he is just phenomenally stupid.

The newspaper report is careful to say that Mureddu's arrest "relates to an incident at Letterkenny University Hospital" when McCarron was "assisted in leaving".

It doesn't say that the incident was the provision of assistance to leave. It could have been something that happened at the same time - a trespass offence, an offence involving abuse of the staff, something of that kind. Or, of course, it could be the assistance to leave. We'll have to wait and see what charge, if any, is brought.

If the charge is to be in relation to the assistance to leave, there has been speculation that the charge will be endangerment. But I see a problem here. The offence involves engaging in "conduct which creates a substantial risk of death or serious harm to another". But McCarron was already at substantial risk of death; his doctor can be heard telling him exactly this in the video. Murredu's conduct may have intensified McCarron's risk of dying of Covid, but it doesn't seem to me that it created that risk. I think a prosecution for endangerment may fail.

I disagree. taking him out of the hospital creates a new risk of death or serious injury due a lack of a required medical treatment. the risk of dying due to a lack of medical treatment did not exist while he was in the hospital.

A bell end like this hounded a member of the force into suicide not so long ago by means of concerted social media harassment that lasted more than a year.

Interestingly the "lady" responsible for that had much the same views as this despicable creature.

Released without charge.

Kicked up to the DPP to make the decision.

Will be very interesting to see what happens.

Sure, but consent isn't always that simple. People can be coerced or deceived into making decisions. The fact that they made decision doesn't mean the other person is necessarily scott free.

Any road, it's pretty clear that while the dead man was a complete simpleton, he was also deeply involved in this freeman nonsense over the last several years, so it's unlikely the other fruit loop came into the hospital and randomly convinced him to leave. He was most likely intending on leaving but just wanted some support.

He's friendly with Dolores Cahill and previously with Gemma O'Doherty though Gemma now claims he is a state agent.

He should be sent to jail for his facial hair alone.

Horrible human anyway, and this just proves it. Hopefully they throw away the key, he has know connections to racists in Italy as well, so fück him.

Yet. File has been sent to the DPP.

Murders are isolated incidents. That's not a reason for not prosecuting when they do occur.

I'm not saying that Murredu murdered McCarron, or anything like that. Just that the rightness or wrongness, legality or illegality, of what he did does not depend at all on how often incidents like this occur. Saying that this is an "isolated incident" is no help at all to Murredu.

Nor does the legality of his acts depend on "the management of nursing homes early in the pandemic" or the other factors you mention. It may not be your intention, but bringing them up in this context looks like an attempt to distract from the subject of the thread, which is Murredu's involvement with the death of McCarron, and whether there is any legal accountability for it.

Your initial question ("What can he be charged with regarding the hospital video?") is the right question to ask, even though none of the other points you mention are relevant to that question. There is speculation about a charge of endangerment contrary to the Non-Fatal Offences Against the Person Act, 1997 s. 13; for reasons given earlier in the thread I am not confident that a charge would be successful, but I could be wrong.

It's also possible that the enquiry will focus on more than is just disclosed in the video, and on the involvement of people other than Murredu. Reportedly, after McCarron was taken home he was given medical treatment in line with the beliefs of the people involved, which included the administration of Ivermectin. There will be questions to be asked about whether this treatment, or the withholding of conventional treatment, contributed to his death; whether the Ivermectin was supplied without prescription; and whether there are any infringements of the law here. One possible outcome is that there will be charges, but not charges directly related to McCarron's death.

Hes comedy gold in a way though. He demanded 50 grand off the Gardai who arrested him in Galway.

Ah come on...you can't see the difference?
