Woman rakes up 648 convictions

The more likely explanation is when you're on holidays, you don't see the places where the feral kids hang out.

Dublin is unusual in that its city centre, historic areas and tourist sites are also the places that have the greatest concentration of scrotes and toerags living there.

I've lived in 7 other rich countries for a year or more, our situation is unique. We breed them different.

Ok the UK is the same but nowhere else.

and its peoples responsibility as citizens of the state not to be thieving scumbags ,

but your just here to troll arent you ?

bull, there are an unending amount of supports resources and facilities to help those who want help, she chose no ignore them and keep being a scumbag

this person isnt a naïve kid , she just doesn't give a f and has had every thing handed to her all her life, she has hardly ever had to deal with the consequences of her actions unlike her many many victims ,

if she and her kind dont want to live in a society with rest of use then cut her off , isolate her in jail, remove financial and resource support and give it to those who deserved it and dont just steal, take and consume without ever contributing anything

people like here are feral and we shouldn't have waste resources supporting her , we dont want or need parasites like her , no society does

lol the responses are so true to type.

you don't think better services could have helped this lady i.e. counsellors, specialist teachers/schools, after school programs, help with health issues, addictions, career guidance, basic modern world survival skills etc. etc.?

she was screwed from birth, of course early intervention and help from the state could have given her a better chance, and it probably would cost a lot less to take this approach than pointless never ending court dates and incarceration.

Are you implying that there weren’t some brilliant peolme involved in her life trying to help her?

Are you suggesting she was let down 857 + times by us, society?

You are posting here as if you know that all this was the fault of others. Have you detailed information chronicling her journey?

is it more excusing based off “yes, she had services, but she needed ‘better’ services.”

At what stage do we conclude this pest is never going to change and either throw her in the mental or jail for a very long stretch. An absolute scourge on society.

And how much does all that cost?

Our biggest problem is that people like her are not isolated cases. It would take about ten or more taxpayers to pay for all the services you suggest. There is now a huge poverty industry dealing with situations like that, and to be honest, they don't appear to be making a blind bit of difference, which would make you question the premise you put forward. The list of projects and funding of groups are endless. Look at these examples from the North East Inner City.

Would anyone be able to estimate however roughly how much income she has generated for the legal profession, the most amoral profession in the country.

I don't think you can say that the 'lock em up brigade' are looking for lower taxes.

Just frustrated to see they way this country has gone/is going. You just need to look at this forum and the news to see that our legal system needs serious reform. There are many people in society who have no respect for the law or their fellow citizens......and you know something....it's pretty obvious to me why. I wrote about this on this very forum well over a decade ago and in the past few days have had opportunity to speak again about the topic in relation to it.

When people see holders of the highest offices in the land get away with behaviour which at best is immoral and at worst is illegal, they have can justify their own illegal and immoral behaviour.

I am not condoning any of these activities but in general citizens need to be held to account for their actions no matter who they are or the come of the rest of society sees it as a licence to do what they want.

It's not just that obviously but it's well and good telling people to mind their own business but this type of behaviour directly effects hundreds of people and indirectly effects all of us.

I'll give it a shot, but it's probably wildly inaccurate.

857 convictions, mainly for theft/offensive behaviour. From my experience, you could get 3-4 charges from a theft with offensive behaviour. So we'll knock it down by 75%, give her the benefit of the doubt. So roughly 214. Being very generous here.

So at least 214 court appearances. But we need to at least double that, because nothing gets done on the first appearance. So 428 appearances. Again, being very generous, most likely a lot of these involved quite a few more appearances. If memory serves me correctly, one solicitor told me he gets €150 per appearance. Is a lot more if the appearance is above the District Court. But I'll again assume they didn't go beyond District, such "minor" offences that they are.

So on my completely guessed based on no information, I reckon (being generous) she cost the state at least €64,200. That's just legal representation. I'd have no idea how to even start to calculate the cost to the state overall.

If I was to not be nice, I'd say there was at least 650 appearances overall. So that would then be €97,500.

Is she actually in prison now or is she free to aim for the big 1000 convictions?
