Only for he recorded certain conversations they'd have gotten away with it. If they'll do that to one of their own then what chance do ordinary citizens have?

Don't trust them in any circmstance. stay silent ask for lawyer

People might be slightly over-reacting here. I'm not taking away from peoples personal experiences, but you never hear the good stories. In my 9 years, I've had to take thousands of statements, including from witnesses and people who i've asked to attend the station. There's one simple rule to follow: A Garda can ask you anything, but can only demand certain things. Chatting with a Garda cannot be used as evidence, only once you have been cautioned can anything you say be used as evidence. So feel free to talk openly with the Garda, but as soon as you hear the declaration (read out at the start of giving a statement as a witness) or if you're arrested and cautioned, then don't talk, as only that evidence can be used in court, not the idle chit chat. Remember that once arrested and cautioned, there is no longer such a thing as idle chit chat, even if they take you for a smoke and start up a casual conversation, don't get involved.

As someone mentioned above, the general populace really don't know their rights, so if you're in any way worried, just don't talk and look for a solicitor. If you don't have one, and you're arrested, the station has a list of the local solicitors and they will ring and request attendance on your behalf, which most solicitors will do at the drop of a hat, lovely money for them. Most Gardai are trained in basic interview techniques, but I'd be more wary if the detectives/plain clothes members start interviewing, as they're usually better trained to a higher level and have learned techniques to get the truth.

And again, I know there are bad apples out there, but they are still highly in the minority in a force of ~13k.

You are never just chatting with a garda. If they are any way good they will use chatting time to find things they then ask about after caution. Also it gets people used to talking to the garda especially if they garda uses the persons connection to hobbies/interests to make an emotional connection.

The detective /plain clothes cannot use any techniques on someone who won't engage with them and their techniques. You don't have to be detective to be aware of these techniques. What interview techniques are the garda trained in?

The problem with bad apples is the others will back them ot of loyalty or peer pressure

If you're a black fella, living in To Kill A Mockingbird, it's probably best to wait for legal advice. If you're living in Ireland, however, the Gardai know most of the local criminals and you're not likely to get any issue from them. Most Gardai aren't setting out to 'pin' something on you. They just want to rule you out so they can get on with their jobs, as most of the time they know who they're looking for anyway.

Unfortunately like most people who lose any passion for their daily jobs, a lot of gardai (as with any police force) become lazy and disinterested and an easy quick result is a good result. Hence the bullying/forceful and endlessly accusatory questions hoping to put you on the spot and land you in trouble.

I sympathize that some of the yokes they would deal on a daily basis ARE habitual liars but they do seem to keep the general tone up with anyone they're dealing with. Usually a very young guard fresh out of training or an old one looking toward retirement is grand. Watch out for the mid career-this didn't go how I planned it- types though.

and interesting to see that video circulating on social media of gardai who were obviously responding to a report of anti-social behaviour on the DART. there's going to be (or certainly should be!) questions asked about that, one of the people arrested is abruptly and violently hauled off the carriage with no warning, and was not acting threatening immediately before he was grabbed.

I personally know of a Garda involved in a serious sexual assault allegation, was back in the 80s when you daren't pursue such matters through official channels. Anyway his "punishment" was to get shunted into the traffic corps for the rest of his career, this halting any hopes of further progression. Apparently this was standard enough practice for dealing with the bad eggs. May no longer be the case but prob best advised to trust the traffic corps less than any.

Garda interviews can have “far-reaching ramifications”, which could include a suspect making a confession and being subsequently denied a trial.

“In the absence of a lawyer, a detained suspect is in a vulnerable and disempowered position, not understanding the significance of the interview, not knowing what will matter at a later point, not fully understanding all of the rights which apply,
Dr Conway said solicitors have disclosed that they “lack confidence” in this new role and often refuse to do it. There are an estimated 20,000 people detained in Ireland every year and only 2,600 had consultations with solicitors, The Supreme Court have upheld as valid, a decision made by a District Court Judge to throw out a prosecution for drunk driving (in a case where the Accused was charged with failing or refusing to provide a breath specimen at a Garda Station) on the grounds that when the Accused at the breath machine in the Garda Station asked to speak to a solicitor the Garda mistakenly thought they were prevented from giving in to the request and halting the breath specimen procedure (the State also sought to argue that given the demand facing the driver there was very little advice the solicitor could have given other than provide the sample).

The Supreme Court have endorsed the reasoning and law as stated in the Garda Custody Regulation of 1984 namely that an Accused can as of right speak with a solicitor at any time in the course of their detention.

In case of McCrea, this meant that the denial of access to legal advice in the Garda Station meant that the refusal to give a breath sample made after he asked for a solicitor was ruled out of evidence and the case against Mr. McCrea collapsed.A person under suspicion from the Gardai ,or any Government organisation with prosecutorial powers should never allow themselves be questioned without having taken specialist criminal defence legal advice.

wouldn't trust any of them .Ireland has an adversarial justice system.The garda is on the other team.

With respect to the OP Iam surprised anyone does not know their rights when arrested these days. It is googleable and there are books available which won't make anyone a solicitor but give clear info on rights.The most important is keep silent which is why criminals like The General and The Monk do so

I remember reading that some time ago if you willingly gave fingerprints when arrested they could be held on file for ever but if you refused and the garda had to use statutory power to take the prints they could only be kept for a year. It's different now.

There are a lot of 'statutory fingerprints' if you keep a look out

If they got a solicitor wouldn't they still have to give the breath sample? is there a possibility of trying to delay while the blood alcohol level falls. How long would it take a solicitor to arrive at 3 AM?

They wouldn't wait for the solicitor to arrive. They would allow a phone consultation only. Even a delay of a few minutes might affect the alcohol levels.

So what would be the point as the solicitor cannot tell them to refuse the sample can he?

Would they wait for the phone consult before doing the sample?

the solicitor can tell them what they want. they are free to give advice. it would be terrible advice though. If you refuse you will be found guilty of refusing to give a sample which carries the same penalties as being over the limit.

In case of McCrea

the garda’s mistaken belief that the whole process would be aborted if the procedure were delayed to allow consultation with a solicitor because “she would not be legally entitled to make another request of the accused if she broke the intoxilyser’s machine’s cycle in order to allow him to consult with a solicitor”. This is admitted to be an error but it is, undoubtedly, the source of all the difficulty which has arisen in this case.

That may have been myself who spoke of this previously, strictly speaking the year requirement could be extended depending on the circumstances, also the no limit on retention for prints obtained via consent rather than under a statutory power still exists, as held by the Supreme Court in the DPP vs Boyce [2008] IESC 62 case, the Criminal Justice (Forensic Evidence and DNA Database System) Act 2014 does not appear to have changed this either as it deals with retention of prints obtained with statutory authority.

That said it's been 12 years since the issue has been tested here that I know of and I suspect it may change in a new case in light of GDPR for example and the issues surrounding biometric data.

They would wait for the phone consultation. They won't supply phone numbers for solicitors either.
The solicitor could advise them that if they have a medical condition which precludes giving a breath sample they can offer a blood sample. They can advise them to keep the offered sample and to take contemporaneous notes of everything which is happening.

There are time limits when obtained under statutory authority, it is when these limits are extended that you can apply to the District Court to have them destroyed.

Having done jury duty and seen how both plays out I would say if guilty say absolutely nothing without a solicitor with you and the very same if innocent, how you can incriminate yourself and then see it later played in court would surprise you, saying absolutely nothing both at interview and in court leaves the jury with a much harder decision to make.

baalad · 22-12-2020 3:12pm

Is the onus on you to request to speak to a solicitor or does the guard have a duty to give you that option?

I was arrested last year around midnight but i was clueless as i had never been in trouble before so it never occurred to me to ask for a solicitor because 1, i did not know / have a solicitor and 2, it was so late that surely i can't just ring one after midnight and expect him to come to my aid when i never spoke to the guy before in my life and 3, i have no idea what this is going to cost me.

Plus my phone was taken off me so i was not allowed contact anyone which caused my parter a lot of anxiety because she thought i was dead because she did not get a response from me in 3 hours haha

Personally i always thought that if the judge hears a defendant wouldn't talk or kept repeating "no comment" that they would just think you had guilty written all over you!

But judges don't convict you because they think you're guilty; they only convict you if the state produces evidence to prove your guilt. Your failure to answer questions put to you is not proof of guilt.

Silence can sometimes be taken into account but they cannot convict on that alone. I would nEVER make any comment to any garda either beforer or after a caution or during so called chatting.You are never chatting to a garda.Theyare supposed to tell you your rights to a solicitor and give you a rights sheet detailing your rights.

That's correct because there is an inference drawing provision for such under S19 of the Criminal Justice Act 1984, however, it only applies to an inference on your whereabouts and no othet aspects of the alleged offence.
