From the 1st of January 2013 up to the 23rd of April 2013, Anthony Pettit, who was the Senior Investigating Officer...

carried out two functions.

He assisted a colleague in a search looking for a file in the basement of Waterford Garda Station.

And he made one phone call to a retired police officer asking, did you know anything about Bill Keneally?

Okay.

Now, from the 23rd of April, when I went to the media, until I think it was the 10th of May, Mm-hmm.

They did 101 tasks in those 10 days.

Now the judge was, part of the inquiry was the judge was looking at this to see what was done beforehand, before I went to the media and after it.

And it's unbelievable.

I mean, and I have to say this as well, Waterford Viking Basketball Club was the club that Bill Keneally was involved in.

Like they're as much a victim as this.

Of this because they had absolutely no idea.

The Gardaí Southies or the HSE, nobody went near them.

Okay.

And what actually happened was

When that story came out, Damien Tyrion, who was RG at the time, did an interview with Bill Keneally.

And Bill Keneally gave him an interview and it was on the news.

Now, Bill Keneally's face, his face was blocked out.

But a committee member of the basketball club recognised sort of his silhouette.

They rang Bill Keneally and said, was that you on the news tonight?
