    When is the Patrick Hutch trial due back in the Special Criminal Court? Reports when it was last adjourned said it'd be back for mention by October 8th but no news about it over the last week - presume it's been delayed again and thus the investigation into Spt. Fox has not been concluded, but does anyone know when it's next scheduled for mention?

    Media blackout on the orders of gardai. Last in the press was 3 September for mention on the 8 October, nothing since.

    Have you a source for this? Seems unlikely that the media would oblige, especially given that there are allegations of potential Garda wrongdoing here... Does this mean the case gets buried and we never find out what's been going on that's caused so much internal controversy?

    I've no source, this as you say is a massive **** storm for gardai, the hacks will abide by anything ordered, otherwise they've no sources.


    One example of many below.

    thejournal.ie/man-taser-arrest-clondalkin-4292750-Oct2018

    "Gardaí requested a media blackout yesterday morning as their operation began."

    FFS, this is one I'm seriously curious about :D Surely though court proceedings are generally a matter of public record, even if the media don't report? Don't know if the Special Criminal Court is different, but shouldn't information about the trial be available from an official source?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,962 ✭✭✭r93kaey5p2izun


    I don't think you can compare a request for a media blackout during an active armed hostage situation with a request for a media blackout on court proceedings involving possible issues with Garda conduct! And the former was rendered rather pointless anyway given the extensive social media coverage provided by locals.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 548 ✭✭✭Commanchie


    Media will destroy AGS when this stuff hits the public.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,775 ✭✭✭P.Walnuts


    Just as Freddie gets put away looks like Brian Rattigan will be out sooner rather than later. Just pleaded guilty to manslaughter to a crime he was previously convicted of murder. Time served should see the new sentence meaningless.

    He still got 17 years for directing drug operations in 2008, who knows how long he will serve of that.

    The interest is huge in this trial you aren't the only one, it will come out eventually, but it has took a weird turn since the death of well respected detective.

    I agree, it's like comparing apples and oranges, but it's the only likely explanation I personally can conclude, or there's a highened risk to his life because of reporting court dates.

    There nothing goin to happen in Patrick Hutchs trail until the investagion is finished into Colm Foxs suicide. The papers said that the timeline for that is the end of October so were not just there yet.

    17 years minus a quarter remission is 12 and 3/4 years. Not too long to go in that case.

    Excellent result.

    Excellent result.

    I have a feeling Gina gets guilty too. Judge while reading out Fox decision he said "By contributing to the commision of murder In ANY way shape or form you are also guilty of that murder" surely providing steriles and gloves is also contribution.

    Good enough for them. I wonder do they think the few bob they got was worth it.

    Ok. Thanks. Having seen someone else get off scot-free a few months ago having played a much bigger role in a murder I'm surprised. But good enough for her.

    One would have thought that Regina Keogh, as a mother-of-five, would have had better things to do than organising gangland assassinations. She just doesn't look like the type to be involved in that sort of thing.

    Who is Mr AB?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,797 ✭✭✭✭hatrickpatrick


    I'm a little confused - was this case related to the Kinahan/Byrne v Hutch feud, or was it a separate local dispute? Are the Keoghs connected to the cartel?

    Seems strange that there's no mention of the feud in articles about this, and nor have any allegations been made of anyone directing or ordering the murder. Seems like it's unrelated?

    You'll find Tossy Fox was a Facebook pal with Gareth Chubb. Shows there's a cartel connection ok.

    Does the Keogh family have a history of involvement in crime? Why would Regina risk losing her children to have Gareth Hutch killed?

    Considering that Regina is now serving a life sentence, are the rest of the family minding her children?

    And up until now he wasn't pictured or named in the media. Now he is and if seen in Europe he's getting nicked.
