    Good work. I wonder will all the naysayers who thought the guards were “doing nothing” have anything positive to say about this? I doubt it

    I agree with you but charged “in connection with” or “in relation to” is a bit ambiguous and could mean anything and probably won’t appease those with a specific agenda towards the Garda?.

    of course they won’t even though if these naysayers followed the news every day the work of the AGS is reported on almost daily.

    Great work by investigating members and to those ppl who helped them.

    It’s all a vicious circle. Your man Ryan was suspected of gunning down two ppl himself. The fella that shot him probably shot someone else before Ryan and in turn will get shot himself one day. Disgusting.

    Why not just say ‘people’? It’s a word, ‘ppl’ isn’t.

    Also, text-speak words like ‘ppl’ just make you appear a bit stupid.

    And it’s sad that you have to go out of your way to point that out. Very sad. Go out for a walk or something.

    So this guy was charged with a relatively minor offence, and now has a rather severe death threat hanging over him.
