Gardaí have identified the arm of a man found on Dollymount Beach as that of James Nolan, a 46-year-old convicted rapist and burglar who was released from prison last November.

Mr Nolan has not been reported missing but has not been seen since his release.

Gardaí are trying to establish his whereabouts but fear he could have been killed.

The investigation began following the discovery of a man's arm on Dollymount Beach in Dublin on 8 February last.

A DNA sample was taken, sent to Interpol and British police identified it as that of Nolan.

His DNA had been maintained on a database in the UK after he had been arrested there. There is no DNA in Ireland.

Nolan was sentenced to 14 years for rape in 1986.

Following his release from prison, he was jailed again for 18 months in 2009 for burglary.

He was released from the Midlands Prison on 22 November 2010 but his whereabouts are unknown. His parents have passed away and his family in Finglas have not seen him.

Gardaí are now trying to establish the circumstances in which he lost his arm and although he could still be alive, they fear he could have been killed.

This is pretty grim. Read it this morning over breakfast.

looks like someone has held a grudge (which is one more thing than this chap is going to be holding).

Ah yes, punishment is not enough.
Got to have sadism, barbarism, butchery and revenge thrown in as well. :rolleyes:

He had a list of convictions as long as his arm, did they not have his finger prints on record?

helimachoptor · 30-03-2011 11:19AM

fcuk him, that should be the treatment for crimes like that.

Didnt deserve to be chopped into bits.

Should have just chopped his knob off to stop him raping again.

lol at "no dna in ireland"

After going on the sex offenders list, even the tide wouldn't take him out.

(Boom, Boom):D

The guy is/was a rapist and obviously 14 years in the lockup didn't rehabilitate him since he was done again for burglary (although maybe he hasn't raped again). But saying he got what he deserved by having his arm chopped off by someone (even after he did his time) is pretty fcuking sick. People who say sh!t like that really only do so to sound macho.

There will be a few upset Gardai if his corpse is found. I hope there will be a big turnout to pay homage to the rapist/ burglar/ whatever else.

Justice has been served IMHO.

btw, it's harder to rape with one arm, I'd imagine. Tryin to hold knife and undo pants simultaneously, AWKWAAARD!!

Einstein · 30-03-2011 11:28AM

Maybe his arm was just out for a swim?

Judgemental bastids

So instead of sending someone to prison you propose that they have various limbs amputated (without anaesthetic), correct?

Who do you think ought to do the dismembering and what should the compensation be for the wrongly convicted?

The Burglary case was from before he went to prison the first time.

I would imagine that the finger prints were probably unreadable, what with decomposition from being in the water.

I don't understand why we can't do the DNA tests in Ireland.

Because we don't store DNA...?

Who said this guy was wrongly convicted? He was guilty and deserved what he got.

And as per your other comment, no not just to sound "macho" as you put it, But if some scumbag raped a member of my family yeah I'd chop him up aswell.
Fúck him. Rape is one of the most horrible crimes there is. The victim has to live with it for the rest of their life but the scum who did it are released and free to do it again and again.

ronan45 · 30-03-2011 11:35AM

If he was convicted of rape shouldnt he of been noticed missing before this IE: Should he not be on a sex offenders list?
I assumed if you had been convicted of rape in this country the guards would know where you live and what you are bloody well up to?

I guarantee he also hasn't a leg to stand on.
