Justice Keane said that a recent dictum from the Court of Criminal Appeal suggested that anyone who wishes to provide a character reference to the court should be in court and available for cross-examination.Kathleen Leader SC, defending, replied that it was accepted in evidence that her client, who went into custody last December, was a good father and that he was very much missed by his family.
This second child told an adult relative and the victim then told this adult that “his father put his yoke in his mouth and got him to suck it”.
In 2000 prolific Pedophile Michael Feeney pleaded Guilty at Monaghan Circuit Court, he had a Character Reference from Northern Ireland Education Minister, Martin McGuinness, Feeney had Raped at least 40 children in his school in Ballybay, Monaghan...
Or maybe they should do away with the practice altogether and sentence the person on the facts of the case 🤔
Why? Sure I regularly gave people a glowing reference for a few bob in cash. Sure I paid Pat Hickeys bail, well I used the FAI account but sure what's a bit of bail money amongst friends. He said he'd pay me back.....
Yup. They should turn up and put up or shut up.
