Drumm ‘completely forgot’ $1.2m transfers to wife

johnpeters · 21-05-2014 08:08PM #1

I literally burst out laughing upon seeing this in the IT - what a brill defense. What a scumbag

As I cannot post links this is from today's Irish Times.

it worked for a few of them overhere

Unfortunately for Drumm the Americans won't be gullible enough to believe it, or spineless enough to accept it.

For fuck's sake.

In any serious relationship you do not keep count.

I know how he feels. I often forget about my multimillion euro transfers. Just been super busy like, can easily slip your mind.

It's different in the real world.

If he came back to Ireland could he be brought to court?

And if yes why isnt he extradited.

Overhere isn't Overthere. He's going to find that such blatant bulsh1tery won't wash in a country where he isn't part of a golden circle.

He will never be extradited because he knows all the secrets that fianna fail never want you to know!

MadYaker · 21-05-2014 08:45PM

Thread title is a bit miss leading. He didn't forget he transferred the money, he "forgot" to properly disclose it for the purposes of his bankruptcy trial. He also seems to claim that he didn't think he needed to disclose them at the time. Either way he looks a right plonker and I don't think the yanks will swallow his bull**** like our financial system did.

He might be the big fish in a little old diseased tin pot pond where he was a big cod.....
but now he is living in the big sea with sharks and they fcukin bite.

Of all these creeps Drumm is the one I'd most like to see nailed. Even more than the bould Seanie. He's got a smirky F-you look on his gob that gets me going every time I see it.

renegademaster · 21-05-2014 09:57PM

i'd almost believe him!!

Boombastic · 21-05-2014 09:59PM

I hope he tries the old
'I won it on a horse' excuse next

Wazdakka · 21-05-2014 10:01PM

Egads...

Quick!
To the pitchforks!!

vicwatson · 21-05-2014 10:03PM

He's a nasty little prat. Grrrr

I'd be far more surprised if he didn't attemp a 'the money was only resting in mife wife's account' defence.

Big mistake for the smug little b@stard not to come home and face no justice from his corrupt elite friends in this tin pot republic

I will start the bidding at 10 years American fraud style

smurgen · 21-05-2014 10:29PM

Wow,I think he's genuinely screwed. I thought he'd be a bit more slick that he's coming across now.be very interesting if he somehow got deported.

If he goes to jail how long would it be before he'd be told to "Come over here and suck Momma's dick"

Something tells me his experience (if he does get a custodial sentence) will be a plush low-security prison.

Say people with little money. The likes of him count every penny and never forget. He's a lying, thieving scumbag.

ArmaniJeanss · 22-05-2014 12:32AM

Not what the ''get him raped in a cell and general prison torture fans" want to hear, but I'm fairly sure he can't actually get a prison sentence out of this.

Its a bankruptcy trial, not a criminal trial.
All the court will do is decide if his bankruptcy can be finalised or not, and can give financial penalties against him if they find he broke any rules.

evolving_doors · 22-05-2014 12:40AM

I don't know what a tracker mortgage is!

Said mr. drumm,

to be fair to the poor fella he probably never had a mortgage himself.

Nope.

He will have his bankruptcy reversed and given his profile you can be sure they will start criminal proceedings. Then it's up to five years per offence, and he "forgot" a few.

Bet he wishes he came home and got let off by a jury now.

So you agree that this current trial can have no custodial outcome - which is all I was saying?
Down the line there may obviously be a criminal trial for related offences.

The crimes he's accused of in Ireland aren't considered crimes in the US. Therefore, it's not possible for a US court to grant extradition.
