    Frankly, until scummy scammers like these two soldiers and ALL the scamming professionals involved from solicitors and barrister to medical "experts" are punished severely for their outright scamming of insurance (paid for by us!) insurance companies will continue to leave and insurance premiums will stay sky high

    https://www.independent.ie/irish-news/courts/soldiers-60000-claim-over-2kmh-crash-thrown-out-38880876.html?token=595878803

    I don't see any party proposing anything concrete for the immediate and hard punishment of scumbags like these two soldiers.


    Maybe there's too much sympathy for the Maria Bailey types

    I'm just amazed that the two soldiers didn't say they were deaf after the accident too.

    and how much did the legal fees come to - and what chance of getting those fees from two scammers?

    None whatsoever!

    So lose lose for insurance policy holders and no consequences for the scammers or the scammer's solicitor or the barrister or the medical "experts"

    Only loser here is us!

    Well each time they have to apply for car insurance they will have to disclose that case, as it's a previous claim.
    Hopefully that raises red flags with any/all insurers and raises their premiums through the roof.

    Although whose policy would it be under? Probably some group Irish army car insurance policy?

    I'd hope (not sure if it's legal or not) that the insurance providers have a common fraudsters database to blacklist them.
    If you can't get insurance for your house, you can't get a mortgage too.

    Surely those two have brought the defence forces into disrepute, should be court martialed and given a dishonourable discharge.

    As to their solicitors and barristers (and the whole justice industry) well what is needed is a similar disrepute process. If a solicitor or barrister or judge is found to have brought the concept of justice into disrepute then they are blacklisted and prevented from practicing law in this jurisdiction again. And the body that makes that judgement should be an independent ombudsman with no members of the justice industry involved. Let it be made up of ordinary members of the public.

    What's the penalty for these chancers?

    Fair play to the lad in the back for being honest. I'd imagine he took a bit of flack.
