  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,105 ✭✭✭Kivaro


    She is on record stating she has no issue paying €30 a week

    Her criminal record?

    That's the stupidest thing I've ever read


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,872 ✭✭✭hynesie08


    what career would that be? She certainly did not put childhood before her criminal career.

    Taxi driver, that's why her convictions don't count, it was work experience.....

    She was framed


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,420 ✭✭✭✭sligojoek


    It is expected from them and in now way surprising. Its their looney sympathisers that are the problem.

    Oh the irony.

    She arrived into the store and her cousin ( who she doesnt speak to anymore ) asked for a hand carrying bags to her car. When they left the shop security approached and she only found out then there was stolen goods in the bag.

    I know people will choose not to believe me

    She may have fallen out with her cousin but she is hardly going to snitch on her. Come on .

    So she lied in court is what you are saying.


    EDIT: and used her children as an excuse in this lie

    And her other 38 previous convictions?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,644 ✭✭✭✭punisher5112


    Oh this is getting better.....

    Framed.....

    Putting Childers and angle before career.....

    I wonder is this why her convictions are less as they would be if she were working as a thief like the husband.

    Course that's what happened....

    The woman would steal anything not nailed down given half the chance.

    And none of this has anything to do with her getting a house.

    She went in empty handed, and walked out with a load of stolen loot

    I agree. Bygones be bygones. It was actually a big turnout outside SDCC considering the short notice. But i suspect there will be a media blackout hiding the truth

    Is this the same lady who said that she only took the clothes because she had to walk the streets all day and the children were wet and she’d no way of drying their clothes?

    Why are we all discrediting the theory that a woman with numerous previous convictions from an ethnic minority background with an unfortunate stigma of being known as thieves, robbers & overall mischief causers was potentially subjected to a framing of a theft consisting of €300 worth of Penney's clothes?!?!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,789 ✭✭✭✭BattleCorp


    Any link to that ? More propaganda . All she wants is a house!

    Sure put your hand in your pocket and buy her one so.

    It’s all in the first post.

    “A MUM-of-seven who came to national prominence after photos of her children sleeping in a garda station went viral has been ordered to enter into a probation bond for one year.
    Margaret Cash (28) stole more than €300 worth of clothing from Penneys in Nutgrove Shopping Centre, Rathfarnham in February this year.

    Judge Patricia McNamara ordered her to enter into a probation bond for one year.

    The judge warned Cash not to give into "temptation" and to stay out of trouble asking her "where will your children be if you end up in prison".

    The defendant, who is living in b&b accommodation, had admitted before Tallaght District Court to stealing clothes, worth €321, from Penney's on February 17, 2018.

    She was before the court for sentencing after the judge ordered a probation report.

    The court heard that Cash had 38 previous convictions, 37 of which were for road traffic matters.

    Her last conviction, for theft, was in 2017.

    Judge McNamara ordered Cash to continue working with the probation services, and to engage with the local housing authority and homeless support services.

    Judge McNamara also warned Cash to "stay away from drugs" but Cash and her solicitor Kevin Tunney said drugs were not an issue.

    Cash said she last took drugs when she was a teenager, and prior to her having children.”

    Cash initially came to prominence last August after she circulated pictures of her children - aged between one and 11 years - sleeping on seats in Tallaght Garda Station on social media”

    €600 for a communion suit????

    Jesus H Christ, there's normal folks out there earning and paying taxes and they can't even afford that. Someone's got their priorities completely screwed up.
