    He does look like a gentle person if you ask me.

    But don't engage in lookism.

    Reading reports over the weekend this gent got the benefit of suspended sentences for very serious crimes on two occasions despite having several previous convictions. The Guards can only do so much and its up to the Courts to punish appropriately. No doubt several legal eagles have prospered on giving him legal advice courtesy of the taxpayer and of course he benefited by supplying cars to the freedom fighters

    Bollocks . . . the posters plastered up all over the area threatening violence were left up by the Gardai / authorities for years, too afraid to remove them, until the media started to ask questions about them last week. If posters like these were put up in Dublin threatening violence against business people in Dublin, they would be removed by the authorities in minutes.

    actually it was an involuntary spasm caused by the tazer electrocution . . if the Gardai had raided , he would have probably died as well . . laughing.

    In all the years these criminal attacks have being going on, the Gardai have not made even one single arrest.

    I've a feeling the tazer was set of max. :rolleyes: He was an informer for both police forces, but he went too far with the Lunney attack and they needed him gone.

    If they done it to a lorry driver or any ordinary person, you can be sure there wouldn't have been a word about it.

    What's all this talk about a taser? The official report is that he wasn't tasered or restrained, and that he just collapsed. That's not something that wouldn't be discovered at autopsy. Is there some new info that he was tasered?

    A very murky story and hard to draw definitive opinions on it. Quinn went in over his head with the Anglo shares and was burnt accordingly. Add in to the mix hush payments being paid to paramilitary's organisations to keep the border quiet and you have a toxic mix.

    I don't think Quinn had sinister intentions but once you let the cat out of the bag then you have to own it.

    Are you saying he didn't get suspended sentences or just making it up as you go along like you usually do?

    The hush payments that are only ever heard of on boards.ie and posted on by people who couldn't find the area on a map.

    Are you actually trying to claim he got suspended sentences for his activities against QIH or are you making up what was actually posted as you usually do ?

    To date, in the years since the attacks, intimidation, violence, threats and criminal damage campaign started against QIH and its new directors, not a single arrest of anyone has ever made made by the Gardai, never mind a single conviction, never mind a suspended sentence. The Gardai done nothing.

    Unlike yourself I deal with the actual facts :

    To date, in the all the years since the all the attacks, intimidation, violence, threats and criminal damage campaign started against QIH and its new directors :

    How many arrests were made by the Gardai ? Name a single one
    How many convictions were obtained ? Name a single one
    How many sentences were handed out ? Name a single one

    Name just ONE over the entire criminal campaign against QIH's new management, and the multi million damage caused ?

    Did anyone else find that Spotlight show very weak? Sensationalism from 2004 about how he collected waste waste with a license, and then paid to dump it in a licensed landfill. The big crime was that he didn't pay the duties. It's hardly criminal, gangland stuff. He found a cheaper landfill in Scotland.

    Either the DNA tests of the van found in Co. Meath have come back, or mobile phone records/numbers found in Derbyshire have proven a link.

    It looked strange that he wasn't arrested sooner, having been recorded on CCTV buying the bleach ( he complained about the price, and the counter staff remembered this fact).
