    One of them got 20 years i think so he couldn't be out. All the teens are out though.

    F'in disgrace, complete and utter joke, might as well go rape who we want, what kinda message does this send to criminals like.

    oh ya go ahead rape people, sure youll be out early, no problem good behaviour and all that.

    who decides they get early release, doesnt the judge who sentence them have to be involved?

    If they're in prison they could not commit crime..If they cannot commit crime there is no need for as many Guards, solicitors/Barristers and Judges..

    If prisoners are released early then that keeps the judiciary in a job by keeping the door revolving..

    It's like repeat customers for a shop..without them you will go out of business.

    I think it's nuts that people can rack up 50 or 60 previous convictions. If they have this many convictions they have probably committed 10 times the amount of crimes.

    I think anybody who commits their 10th offence should get a mandatory 10 years in prison no matter how minor the offence and serve their sentence consecutively instead of concurently. How many chances do they need.

    Normal decent people will not be affected by this.

    It pays to be a career criminal. Bring back corporal punishment and the death penalty, why should the tax payer subsidise these leaches of society?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,394 ✭✭✭jonski


    This is actually the thing that got me from the other thread on here today .

    The fact that he only got 10 years for that vicious a crime is a scandal in itself ( imo hanging would be too good for them ) , but to think that he is out already just makes the whole thing pointless .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,735 ✭✭✭Stuxnet


    3 strike rule like in the US, 3 strikes ='s mandatory 25 years

    thats what we need, but we dont have the politicians with balls to do anything


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,912 ✭✭✭kilburn


    absolute joke they should have gotten 50 years each, locked ina cell with Bubba, see how they enjoy that, scumbags

    Rape is not taken very seriously by our justice system.Remember the Manuela Riedo case? Raped and murdered by a fellow who was out on bail for another rape.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 4,552 ✭✭✭bigpink


    And a free house in Murroe sweet jesus

    And he is out on bail or early release already for that rape and murder. It was in the news last week. That poor girl died and her poor parents get a life sentence of having to deal with the loss of their girl, yet the scum that did it, a piece of trash that already had a previous rape conviction to his name, is walking about where he can be a threat to others.

    Have you a link to that Kess?

    - He was given 2 life sentences almost exactly 2 years ago - July 24th 2009. Can that really equal 100 weeks in jail???????

    How many more rapes and murders will he be allowed to notch up??????


    I remember reading the details of the Cratloe Rapists night on the Town - These People should be hung from the nearest Lampost.......


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 438 ✭✭The_Dave


    Isn't it easy for the judge to hand down those life sentences for that rape when he's already serving a life sentence. Now imagine if he was a free man, or a prisoner currently serving a sentence of less than 10 years at the time of sentencing, it'd be interesting to see what the judge would have sentenced him to then...

    Heres a good read in AH About how bad our justice system is!

    People should jam the switch board of the Irish Council for Civil Liberties over this issue (and many many others). These self appointed criminal rights activists have an almost god like status on the media and among the politicians who are terrified of attracting their opposition. As a result civil society is held to ransom by criminals who operate secure in the knowledge that the law can't touch them because one of the most powerful lobby groups in the country have their back.


  • Registered Users Posts: 903 ✭✭✭bernardo mac


    Prior to the Cratloe rape crime in January2004 members of the gang involved visited havoc and fear at will in Limerick's suburbs.You can be certain that members of the judiciary or the ICCL do not live in areas where such social mayhem occurs

    If I wasn't familiar with The Journal I would have assumed that article was written by The Onion News Network. Madness.

    Will try to find something on it for you. It was either bail, early release, or some kind of day release program.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,207 ✭✭✭hightower1


    Of all the horrific stories from the city over the years this one in particular always stands out in my mind as one of the most depraved and inhuman acts possible.

    I make no apoalgies for saying that every single one of them scumbags - ringleads or not - should be killed. I'm sorry but aside from the moniatry cost they will continue to cause the state until the day they die the sheer mental anguish they have already caused justifies it let alone taking onto accout the pain they will inflict on the world in the future.

    Destory them as you would a rabbid pack of dogs and let us never remeber the likes of them again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,912 ✭✭✭kilburn


    Just read this, one of the 23 year old scumbags got a 2 month suspended sentence for attacking staff in the regional. He has 44 convictions and got a suspended sentence what does he have to do to get a long sentence, seemingly it is not gang rape anyway.

    Scumbag deserves to be locked up and have the key thrown away.

    What the hell is wrong with the judges. :mad:

    He needs to refuse to let the ESB put wiring across his property it seems.

    Maybe not pay his TV License, Dog License or like Al Capone get done for Tax Evasion(You need to earn some money which is taxable first of course)

    Send an e-mail to the Irish Council for Civil Liberties and ask them to justify this. They would be very quick to go on Matt Cooper and complain if he got 30 years. Our politicians and judges are terrified of the power they and other Criminal Liberties organisations yield on the media.

    Exactly. The scum no that there is no real punishment for their actions so they do as they like.

    A joke that a convicted rapist is out and about and still committing crimes. The latest two month suspended sentence for attacking people in the hospital is just a joke.


    Ah but this country is great at going after the real "criminals" as the link in BB's post shows. :rolleyes:


    No wonder Limerick is riddled with so much scum when they can do as they please and walk away with a slap on the wrist.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,279 ✭✭✭✭bazz26


    Just put him down like you would a vicious dog. Pointless wasting time, energy and money on these wastes of DNA when they will contribute nothing of value to society over their entire lives.

    Have sent a mail to them, and sent one to the mayor as well asking him if he is going to highlight the need for proper sentences for people who commit serious crime at the rate the scumbag rapist has been doing so with the same vigour as he showed in going to the media about Limerick having nobody in the Rose Of Tralee.

    Having people like that rapist who still is being convicted of new offences on our streets is a far bigger issue that some beauty pagent.

    It's damned incredible that these criminals are getting away with causing social mayhem.The light sentencing is encouraging the young emerging thugs to continue to intimidate their neighbours even in areas that were once quiet and civilised within short walking distance from Roxboro Garda Station: Janesboro,Rathbane......
