All the easier to spot him if you ever came across him and give you a better chance to get the feck out of there. Still find it appalling that TV3 are doing it though.

But lets pick on this one, cause he has a hood up and looks scary on the front page of the indo.. And when tv3 show the add, they'll have menacing music.. And people who read tabloid crap will watch just so they can be told what they should think of larry. And after that, we can all watch some family airing their disfunctional wares on 'telly till some bint shows us how it should be done.

And his name & face are so recognisable that of course tv3 are going to look for an interview. How many people would tune into such a programme about someone they never heard of? Tv3 are doing this to generate viewers.
Its something people will watch just to see how he is in the interview & quite possible rip the piss out of tv3s interviewing skills. Many of us are capable of forming opinions without the help of a newspaper or tv.

His victim still lives in Ireland and will have to put up with this crap for the next few days. As if she hasn't suffered enough.
