Ian Bailey RIP - threadbans in OP

He has that area mapped from his trip to Alfie lyons as well. But something in his ego was egging him on if he did act on impulse.

It's always the husband ,🤣

Bailey asked for the same, a fresh investigation. Yes or no? So by your logic does that make him innocent?

Was Daniel co-operative with the Guards or not? Yes or no? What I read is that he stonewalled the Guards and was not co-operative. If you have evidence to the contrary do share.

"Talking absolute rubbish" appears to be your deflection response for when your own arguments are turned against you.

Just on this. Can I ask.

Is there evidence he was day drinking on 22nd, he did leave pub at 12 midnight and drove home. I know any significant amount of drink taken would just have seriously hindered any decent efforts to leave no trace behind. But eitherway was he not sober and furthermore would be comfortable in knowing the distance considering he was on that route numerous times knowing Lyons .

Again we are saying impulse..but maybe it was scratching at his ego for months or year to go there and he was determined...it wasn't acting on spot..he had thought about going there..knew she was home..

I know it's too much speculation. The case is severely damaged in so many respects to make accurate assumptions of how this may have unfolded.

The case was effectively closed. Bailey was named and most idenfitied with the case. The gardai had no other leads, and no other hard evidence to go on.

Job done if Daniel was guilty, time for him to move on with his life.

Nope instead Daniel criticizes the gardai and the investigation. His good friend Jacques Chirac demands the case be reopened and a more thorough investigation done.

Now do you seriously think if Daniel was guilty he'd want the gardai reopening the whole thing and potentially finding new leads or dna evidence which points towards him? Of course not.

So again there is a huge hole in your logic, not for the first time.

As for Bailey looking for new investigations, the guy was a bone fides nutter determined to keep himself in the news.

His motives and Daniels were completely different.

Yes that day of 22nd I knew was fully around the turkeys and trees and guess most likely could have alcohol at home prior to pub and after pub.

In terms of reports of bailey on road on numerous occasions drunk and shouting ...was that prior to the murder or after...are there any facts to these sightings with gardai or his behaviour outside of actual case.. separately..

It was interesting that Bailey recently said that Sophie had parked her car on Ardmanagh Road on the Saturday. I think it had been speculated that she would have parked in the Church car park. There is no question that he was on the street at the same time as Sophie that day. One witness who knew them both said that she saw Bailey across the street at the same time as Sophie exited Spar. There is also no doubt that Sophie entered Marie Farrell`s shop. Farrell didn`t know Bailey at that time. This is from Farrells statement dated 22/1/97.

"It was so quiet. Sophie came in. At the same time there was a man standing across the road. He was watching her. She left and turned right up the Ardmanagh Road. As she did that, the man who was across the road, he also walked across the street and he went up the Ardmanagh Road."

Just saw the netflix doc and one thing they didnt really go into was why Sophie was in West Cork only a few days before Christmas,Ive read before that she went to get the central heating fixed? Seems a strange thing to do as she did have a local woman who keep the house clean and had keys,she couldve gotten her to arrange that.Just seems a strange time to be going to an isolated spot in another country.Also the fact that the Husband never came over to identify the body or ever came to Ireland at all seems totally strange aswell.

Did she have a lover in the area,did the Husband know about it? I mean in a small area like that its hard to have a secret lover unless the fella lives close by and knows a way to sneak up to the house without being seen by anyone.

Find her reasons for being there then and we might have some chance of understanding what happened

There is nobody on the thread who claimed Jules murdered Sophie. Nobody. I didn't see any such posts. If you state otherwise, go back and find the post where that is claimed or accept this is your own misinterpretation and strawman. Otherwise, it is plain your are making claims without any basis, and therefore without merit.

Can you find us the posts where someone says literally he couldn't walk it? Like it wasn't possible?

It has been pointed out to you multiple times that's not what people have said.

And could he walk 2.5 miles it in 50 minutes, at night, after coming home from the pub and a long day? And on the way back, after a supposed violent rage murder? The timings are dubious.

There was blood found on Sophies shoe that wasn't hers, they have Baileys full profile, DNA, Blood, Hair.

At the risk of stating the obvious here. That should have been the starting point for the cold case review.

Jim Sheridan has asked that very simple question and has got no answer.

Or is Senan Baloney going to come out and tell us a "source" confirmed the shoe was tied to the gate that no one could find but turns out it was recycled.

It is clear as day that guards tampered with the evidence that would have cleared Bailey as a suspect and the dodgy evidence they had was flimsy at best.

I wonder will the report on the corruption in this case that was deemed too top secret to release ever be seen?

Or will the cold case review team get a look at it at least.
