I think the shopkeeper did it.
I thought the same myself. Its pretty ironic that the shopkeeper doesn’t have an alibi for where she was when the murder was committed.
I don’t genuinely think it was the shopkeeper wot dun it but if the Gardai are going to try to lock people up for murder using only circumstantial evidence then it would seem that the shopkeeper without an alibi has the same level of suspicion on her as Ian Bailey.
Either way if there were 44 Pulse entries on Ian Bailey in 2011-2012 then thats one per fortnight, which would suggest he was being tailed by plain clothes Gardai on a pretty full time basis. I would find it hard to believe that former Commissioner Callinan and former Minister Shatter were not aware that Bailey was still under the same level of surveillance. Makes you wonder what Enda knew (probably f all, out of the loop as usual)
Another interesting angle here is that circa 2012 Ian Bailey graduated from a Masters in Law from UCC, it was on the RTE News at the time. The dissertation he wrote was along the lines of Garda malpractice corruption in the Irish state, a kind of two fingers by Bailey to the Gardai. I wonder when he was writing his dissertation on Garda malpractice was he aware that he was under surveillance ???

So they got it wrong by telling lies and making stuff up. And rather than face the truth about their own stupidity and ****ishness, they waste their time spying on him, on the off chance that he might kill a french person.
Maybe the Misses was after scoring some hash, to feed her habit, and stop her going cold turkey like
Is that it? Does anyone know? Because I got bored with nonsense about 10 years back.
Easier to pursue the wrong man than admit a mistake.
When this Gardai reform coming under the leadership of teh status quo commisioner?
Yeah you’ll see it change, now they’ve got a woman in charge
She comes across as inspiring as a salad sandwich !
This can’t be cousin jack. The same cousin jack who said he was leaving broadsheet yesterday over the pets-dressed-seasonly posts? Unless…cousin jack is Ray Darcy?
Well, isn’t that just the kind of thing you’d say if you were trying to get yourself
electednoticed?I wonder is the actual killer following the trial?
Her husband had her whacked.
Any proof?
Broadsheet, delete this comment for your own sakes.
Sophie Toscan de Plantier’s. Oddly enough, my response to ‘is her killer following…’ was along similar lines – no, he’s dead.
Why didn’t he turn up for her funeral?
Pulse that
Hahahahha, I like that
“Pulse that”.
