For those people who turn Queen's evidence, they're going to get pardons or that they're not going to face prosecution.

And we know today that that in itself is a very problematic thing to do because the person has motives.
podcast-host
I don't know if this is a good time to introduce it, but they could understand English.

But what I'm wondering is does the fact that these men are bilingual give them a better understanding of what's unfolding around them and they can see the writing on the wall, where all this is going and they come to the decision that the only way out
podcast-host
Is that they'll turn on the others.
podcast-host
And in return for that, get a pardon.

And then if we move on to the actual case, you know, I think if this was happening today, we would expect a very clear motive set out that they had acted in the way they did, because of very clear motives, and then there would be very specific detail laid out as to what had happened on the night in question.
podcast-host
I might ask you first, do the prosecution lay out
podcast-host
A motive and then second there is a bit of an issue
podcast-host
as to the accounts presented about what happened on the night in question at the house, about who actually entered the house, who stayed outside, 'cause obviously that would create issues around who actually committed the murders.
podcast-host
If you were outside, you clearly couldn't have done it.
podcast-host
But what I'm getting at, I suppose, more generally is this is not what we'd call a watertight case.
podcast-host
A pivotal moment in the trial is that some of the accused turn Queen's evidence very
podcast-host
I suppose controversial thing to do in rural Ireland at the time.
podcast-host
What is the impact that this has on the case?
podcast-host
Obviously
podcast-host
You know, you've got people who are accused now saying that they're going to testify as to what happened.
podcast-host
Do they
podcast-host
admit they were there in the night and say, Yes, I was there and this is what happened.
podcast-host
Do they strengthen the prosecution case by doing this?
