    If he's ever extradited to Ireland he'll be in for some serious punishment, 5 years banged up in the Westbury Hotel, and 400 hours community service on the Miss World pageant nipple tweaking team. Serves him right!

    And probably a NAMA job paying 250k a year and a load of further directorships like these guys

    He deserves to have the book thrown at him and go down for a long spell. An utterly despicable human being.

    The judge seems to agree with you. An Irish judge would have kissed his a$$, with a nod and a wink.

    Good to see him getting a roasting by the US judiciary, a spell in a US jail wouldn't go amiss.

    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.
    So he forgot about it but he thought about it at the same time. That doesn't make much sense.


    I could believe that someone dealing in millions and millions could over look a million. It makes him look stupid and you'd wonder how he ever made money but I could just about believe it. Still seems unlikely.

    Sean Dunne comes across as much more smarmy and he got away with it.

    I read a book about Anglo and David Drumm was on of those individual who believed their own hype, was give too much responsibility/promotion when he was young which made him arrogant.

    He didn't come from a middle class background nor the old boys network that often pops up in Irish financial circles nothing seems to have happened to the real insiders in all of this.
