Mairia Cahill’s Rapist ‘Abused Two Girls Aged 13 and 14’ – Serious Questions Raised About Barra McGrory’s Prosecution Service

The Broken Elbow's avatarThe Broken Elbow

Serious questions have been raised about the functioning of the North’s prosecution service following the collapse of criminal proceedings brought on behalf of two West Belfast women who were allegedly sexually abused when they were young teenagers by Marty Morris, the IRA member at the centre of the Mairia Cahill abuse scandal.

The women were aged thirteen and fourteen at the time of the alleged abuse.

The two women, who at this stage do not want their names revealed, claim that Morris had subjected them to sexual abuse over a three year period between 1997 and 2000. They complained formally to the PSNI in early 2011, Morris was returned for trial in July 2011 but proceedings were delayed repeatedly and then indefinitely adjourned by the North’s prosecution service to facilitate Morris’ trial on IRA membership charges.

Like Mairia Cahill’s case, the PSNI and prosecution service decided that before the two…

An open letter to the Army Council

Dear Army Council,

I don’t have your postal address, so forgive me for using this method of correspondence. I hope that one of you might read this before heading out to the Felons’ Club.

To set everyone’s mind at rest and to stop unreasonable allegations, I wonder if you would confirm that:

1. Gerry Adams was never a member of the IRA.

2. Martin McGuinness left you in the 1970’s, was a terribly bad shot and was never on the Army Council.

A simple reply to my blog will suffice.

Martin McGuinness-the murderer’s files being examined?

When Barra McGrory replied to my request for an investigation into McGuinness, regarding the murders of my parents, he said: “I have no reason to believe that there has not been a very thorough and comprehensive investigation of their deaths” That was when it had slipped his mind that at all material times he had been McGuinness’s lawyer.

That reply  was last May, now, five months on, I am told that the PSNI and the PPS are to meet to discuss my concerns and allegations.

New inquests -a level playing field for unionists?

Readers may recall that Barra McGrory, on the basis of a Panorama programme, requested the Chief Constable to investigate the behaviour of the Army. When I asked him to carry out a similar exercise in respect of Martin McGuinness, he refused, then said that he had not refused , then delegated the decision to a senior member of his department.

Now the Attorney General has decided, on the basis of the same programme , to order new inquests into the deaths of Daniel Rooney and Patrick McVeigh.

I have today requested that the A-G order fresh inquests into the murders of my parents on the basis of extensive publications , over the years, asserting that McGuinness was head of northern command PIRA and that he approved the murders of my parents. I also request that the voluminous State intelligence on McGuinness is made available to the Coroner.

Let’s see how even handed the response is.

McGuinness, the murderer

I first asked the DPP and the Chief Constable to make further enquiries into what I allege is the involvement of McGuinness in the murders of  my parents, in May this year.

After insufficient responses from the PSNI, I gave them one final opportunity to respond, before I set out here the allegations. That matter has been with the DCC, Harris, for several weeks.

Having undecided a decision he had made against me, Barra McGrory delegated responsibility , on 5th June, to his Senior Assistant Director, Stephen Herron. He promptly went on leave. On 12th September, Mr Herron promised me a reply “within two weeks”.

I am still waiting.

I suppose I have to join the queue behind the decision whether to prosecute Adams, the review of Adams in respect of his brother’s case and the review into the cases associated with Ms Cahill .

Dodds Law

Just to keep you updated on our MEP.

She hosted a meeting of innocent victims of terror at the EU. I presume they told their stories, were patted on the head and sent home. Nothing tangible came from it.

No mention of course of the billions of Euros of Gadafy’s money which the EU have frozen yet will not pay out to “innocent victims of terrorism”, and about which she will make no application.

Meantime she now wants you to back a campaign to refuse to pay money to the EU.

Bites the hand that feeds her?

Diane Dodds, what is she good for?

Martin McGuinness , more thoughts on the murderer

If you lived in a community where, over the years , people said “Joe Bloggs does all the burglaries about here”; you might expect that Joe would have a few convictions. If he had none you might wonder why. Ponder also when several of the local newspapers say; “Joe Bloggs is a burglar” and Joe does not sue for libel.

As with Joe, so with Martin. Soon , I will list all those who have accused him of membership of PIRA, of being on the army council [though it was never an “army” because they bleated like sheep when the SAS dealt with them], and of being head of northern command. Volunteer McGuinness has never sued. You can work that one out.

Diane Dodds

Readers may recall that this DUP MEP undertook to support my campaign for compensation for those killed or injured by PIRA semtex. I asked her to lobby the European Union for the release of a tiny fraction of the billions of pounds of frozen Libyan funds.

She agreed to help.

I have emailed her , asking for an update, on 25 September and 13 October, but no reply.

Those who voted for her might be interested in the subject matter of the ten written questions she is recorded by the EU  as having asked in the period August to September 2014.

Tackling the hyper-sexualisation of society

Securing a safe and transparent food chain

Compliance with the EU Industrial Emissions Directive

EU législation pertaining to VAT registration

Support for those fleeing the Islamic State on Turkish Border

Sustaining an acceptable working age

Preventing a rise in EU anti-Semitism

EU action against the Islamic State

Protection for minority faith groups in Iraq

Improving air safety in conflict zones

Impressive stuff you might think and all close to the hearts and interests of the ordinary NI citizen

Mrs Dodds has an interesting record re question asking. On 20th May 2014 the Belfast News Letter reported that at the mid point of the last EU parliament, she had asked just 39 questions. But by April 2014, as the election neared, “that number had soared to 437”. The paper went on –of the 437 questions 77% have been asked “since the start of last year”

One wonders what the DUP is good for.

Public Prosecution Service and Ms Cahill

Today’s statement from the PPS appears to be a tacit admission that there was a lack of supervision and joined up thinking in respect of the cases relating to Ms Cahill.

Once again it also appears that the Director is professionally embarrassed by his past representation of Sinn Fein/PIRA and is unable to carry out his function as a government law officer.

Meantime the letter promised to me by the PPS by 26 September has not arrived and no explanation has been offered.

Martin McGuinness, the murderer of my parents

Just to be clear. I accuse Martin McGuinness of being head of northern command PIRA and of approving the operation which led to the murder of my parents. I will set out all the information about this in due course.

I also accuse the State of being complicit in this and other murders , because it had penetrated PIRA at the highest levels. It is inconceivable that the State was unaware of his role and his criminality.

It’s not just Ms Cahill who has a case to make.

I still await a substantive reply from both the PPS and the PSNI. Busily covering up.
