Ian Bailey Frame Up Is Just One Case - Now What About The Kevin Tracey Frame Up

categoryinternational | crime and justice | other pressauthor Friday March 02, 2012 14:17author by Sam Malone - LSGReport this post to the editors

THE TRACEY CASE IS AS SERIOUS AND INVOLVES MANY ABUSES AND CRIMINAL ACTIVITY BY PERSONS IN POSITIONS OF POWER.

Congratulations to Ian Bailey who eventually scored a victory in the Supreme Court yesterday, ultimately at a huge cost to the State. The questin is what will happen to the perpetrators of the frame up of Ian Bailey, particularly the Gardai. Surely this frame up can not become another cover up. Minister Alan Shatter you need to take focus of what is going on in the Justice and Legal System.

Kevin Tracey has undergone an enormous personal attack and abuse over many years despite his innocence on all accounts. The perpetrators must be brought to account. Not only has he been the victim but his family have suffered too. He has been particularly abused as a lay litigant in his fight for all wrongdoing against him. I invite all justice seeking persons to read the gruelling account of part
of his story on WWW.CORRUPTIONINIRELAND.COM

Have met this man in his protest outside the Dail and believe he is 110% genuine. He is telling a story of very disturbing corruption by very senior people in Irish society. My advice to him is to stick with it and one day soon he will bring the perpetrators to justice. I admire him for his tenacity eventhough all the stress and strain has caused him ill health. Will some decent people come forward to help his and to expose this corruption before it gets any worse?

I have no doubt that the truth will come out one day like Ian Bailey but at what cost to the Tracey family?.

To date, and well over four months after the old age pension appeal submitted on November 2nd 2011, which, because of all the extremely serious criminal government wrongdoing involved over a period of several years, was also copied through the registered post to President Michael D. Higgins on November 2nd 2011, a decision has still not been received. Information relating to the two registered letters used for the pension appeal in question, and all the cover-ups and crime involved, can be found at:
http://www.humanrightsireland.com/PensionAppealsOfficer/2November2011/RegisteredLetter.htm

Impunity:

"Impunity means the impossibility, de jure or de facto, of bringing the perpetrators of violations to account - whether in criminal, civil, administrative or disciplinary proceedings - since they are not subject to any inquiry that might lead to their being accused, arrested, tried and, if found guilty, sentenced to appropriate penalties, and to making reparations to their victims."

The "impunity" excerpt just above is from: http://www.derechos.org/nizkor/impu/principles.html

The very worst thing about impunity is that nobody anywhere seems to have the faintest idea (in practice) about how to successfully tackle it: and certainly nobody in the Republic of Ireland as far as I am aware.

Once our grossly corrupt legal profession decides to deliberately ensure that the targets of government crime cannot get any legal representation of the kind which would stop the government crime they are being subjected to, then the targets of such crime are totally on their own, and their situation is completely hopeless at the present time: as far as 1) stopping the Government crime is concerned, and 2) also as far as receiving justice and reparations for the government crime in question.

In other words, our Government (Executive, Legislative, and Judicial) can do what it likes at the present time to its citizens, and get clean away with it: thanks to the red-rotten-with-corruption impunity system our legal profession is running and sustaining.
