A Judge Who Knows How To Speak Up For Irish Hospitality!
Updated : Feb 27, 2009
An outspoken District Court Judge has launched a scathing attack on Romanian nationals who, he said, were abusing the hospitality of the Irish nation by thieving from premises on a regular basis. Judge Sean MacBride made the comment at a recent sitting of Cavan District Court when a Romanian man appeared before him on two theft charges.
Judge MacBride said the defendant and gangs like him were going into shops and businesses around the country and fleecing them. . “In Romania they can purchase a house for between €12,000 or €15,000 and they are laughing at us. It’s an absolute affront that they think they can come in here and thieve.â€
The Judge also recently had a case in Carrickmacross where he sentenced a Romanian woman to six months and fixed recognisance’s of €2000 in the event of an appeal. “A colleague of hers comes in and takes out a big wad of notes and he pours the money onto the table. He had no problem raising the €2000.â€
Judge MacBride further commented that Romanian men were abusing women and had them under severe duress. “They send them into shops and stores to thieve and then have them sent back to their native country.â€
VeryHappyPig says this judge could make a damn fine leader!!
