Does Ciarán Keane Jr., did he fight this case or did he just concede and not show up?

So yeah, no, it was contested.

So she basically is allowed to stay in that house, but it'll ultimately be taken from under her and sold as well and put to auction like the other two.

How is, I suppose finally, things in Limerick in general amongst the criminal fraternity?

A ferret?

Thomas O'Neill, of course, is the partner of April Collins, who was once the partner of Ger Dundon and who wound up giving evidence at very significant trials against some of the Dundon brothers, certainly Wayne and John.

Certainly John, anyway, she gave evidence at that trial as a state witness.

And so they were once very much together, both in a relationship, plus kind of the two families were in business and associates together.

And that split amazes me still that they still remain all in the same street.

Yeah.

Sort of the women of the Dundons are just at one end of the street and the Collins clan are just like, I mean, you could walk in five minutes between the two houses.

And all those poor people living in between.

Okay, Eamon, thank you very much.

It was a pleasure, Nicola.

And I mean, and with the MV Royal guys, including Gary Monks, it was put to the judge with each of the defendants by the different counsel that they pleaded guilty at the earliest moment they could.

We're talking about a trial with 114, 120 witnesses, would have gone on for months.

So they're making the point, like, you know, this has to be worth something in terms of mitigation.

And it always is rewarded.

It's always taken into account.

loading up a cargo in brazil to head for limerick so yeah this is the mv royal which is a 200 meter long maltese flagship so it's a it's a bulk carrier it's actually it's quite big um i'd say anyone going out to it would see it from a long way off no doubt um so that was that was important the amazon um and it was taking on something like 40 000 tons of bauxite which is the ore that's used to manufacture aluminium and that was heading to the factory in oganesh in in county limerick
