    Fair play to her. She done the crime, she done the time.

    Who are you to say, she shouldn't earn some money?

    Alot bigger crooks in our government and people will keep voting them in


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,790 ✭✭✭✭BattleCorp


    Because she’s a pure ride and the nation needs something to be outraged about.

    She'd be nicer if she didn't go fcuking mental with the auld lip fillers.

    I wonder will there be a film , I'd like to play a part in the film, maybe the judge in court or the prison governor.

    Eh she didnt do the time though. She was released after 3 years of a 7 year sentence. Prob because our idiot media made a story of it.

    And of course she shouldnt make money off of trying to import 1.5m worth of drugs that could potentially ruin lives and lead to deaths.

    And lastly wtf kind of argument is 'oh theres worse things other unconnected random people have done'?!

    Its not a competition between two bad things. Oh this thing is way worse so that thing isnt as bad!

    Both are true and neither make the other right. Drugs do cause deaths as do the others. Dont even get the point you're trying to make.

    That's how the justice system works. Same way it does here. You rarely serve the full custodial sentence.

    My point is that you are making poor little Michaela out to look like a sadistic murderer.

    She got punished

    3 years of 7 is nowhere near the full sentence though. Thats a bit different than 1-2 years early release.

    Nope, merely pointed out that drugs cause deaths. Thats why drug smuggling is treated so harshly in many countries.

    And theres lots of people who would say she got off lightly in the end. And that its wrong of her to be going around trying to profit off of it.

    Keeping to yourself and leading a good life as a mum is one thing. But parading yourself on the media and bringing out a book is another. She put herself in the firing line again and cant complain about getting people having a go.

    I assume you guys are taking the absolute piss??? One of the biggest jokes about her when she was caught was that she was one of the ugliest, repulsive looking humans of all time. And, now that she is caked in orange stuff and filled her lips with ****e, she is even worse.

    Cue jokes like...
    • Special Forces wouldn't take her out.
    • She'd turn you gay
    • She's pretty ...pretty fcukin' ugly!
    • She's so ugly, she made my happy meal cry
    • etc...

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 927 ✭✭✭BuboBubo


    Did she drop the "Connolly" from her surname?

    She's become another one of those vapid famous reality/social butterfly/falling out of her clothes types.

    Suppose it's a legitimate way to make a living nowadays!

    Probably came from an alienated background where the father is Connolly and she was turned against him, she never acknowledged herself with the double barrel surname I think.

    Thats pushing it .

    Michaella McCollum is a reasonable looking Woman . Nothing super dooper .

    I suppose she is doing this as a way to make money . How employable is she ?

    I thought the Brits brought in laws to stop people making money from crime ( books , media , whatever ) . I don’t know if thats just for crime committed in Britain mind .

    I suppose if she is making any money from all this she is probably getting paid in the Republic of Ireland or something like that .

    I think you do.

    I's say it's more that just don't like facts getting in the way of your moral outrage.

    Drugs are bad kids, they kill people. Except alcohol and tobacco of course, they're fine. Sure if they killed people they wouldn't sell them in shops now would they.

    Don't think so. I watch Shaun Attwood on youtube, former ecstasy kingpin and he has ex-cons on his channel who are plugging books etc.

    There is a civil recovery scheme in the UK whereby the Serious Organised Crime Agency can apply to the high court and ask that any money received from the publishing of a memoir is forfeited to the government. It is granted only if certain conditions are met. It applies to offences committed in the UK and overseas.

    Thanks for that . Good information .

    Is McCollum-Connolly a Loyalist or Nationalist? I'm sure if she was using the ROI as her base to take in the money then she will upset some people who are loyal to the crown for not doing it in the 6 counties.

    It's fine to ride a loyalist so long as you go to confession straight afterwards.

    To be fair no matter what gets on the internet it generates insane levels of 'pure froth in the mouth hate'. Just look at this place. Its almost like the internet brings some schizophrenic absolute cvnt alternate personality out of people.

    She's just a reality star now. She has a well known story, lots of controversy, good looking in a trashy/chavy way. Has a book out. Get some pictures in gym gear, pictures falling out of a nightclub and a bust up on morning TV.

    What else do you need for a reality star?

    I expect her or the ISIS returning bride to be on DWTS

    Ah yes, so what you've done is taken the absolute best picture you could find of Michaella, after all her plastic surgeries, and the absolute worst picture you could find of Melissa. Very fair comparison!

    Melissa was by any fair-minded person vastly hotter when they were first arrested. With the stress being put on her while in prison and the limitations on what she could eat, she seems to have put on a lot of weight and it doesn't suit her very well.

    It's almost inevitable that Melissa will lose that weight at least at some point in the future, maybe she will put it back on again or not. Whatever the case at least she's a lot less of a fake than Michaella both inside and out.

    Trades description act ?
    Costs money to to get that look from the pre-jail look.Wonder where the time and money comes from considering she also has two children.
    Certainly could appear to some that it has all payed off for her eventually.

    There is no question that the Scottish girl was prettier than her in the convict photo.

    She was talking on Good Morning Britain about how she has big debts to pay off that the proceeds of her book will go to.

    No prizes for guessing what debts she's talking about, no doubt with interest and everything.
