The scene of the stabbing in Finglas four years ago. James Horan/Photocall Ireland

Woman charged over 2009 murder case

The woman will appear in court later today in connection with the investigation into the alleged murder of Maurice Martin in Finglas four years ago.

A WOMAN WILL appear in court in Dublin later today in connection with the investigation into the alleged murder of Maurice Martin in the north of the city nearly four years ago.

The woman in her 20s will appear before Blanchardstown District Court later this morning charged in relation to the death of Maurice Martin in June 2009.

Martin, 21, was repeatedly stabbed during a fight in Finglas on the night of 11 June 2009 after being at a house party in the area.

A passing taxi driver raised the alarm early on the morning of 12 June and Martin was later found dead at the junction of Cardiffsbridge Road and Tolka Valley Road in Finglas.

    Hufflepuff news did an article om cult leaders
    https://www.huffpost.com/entry/cult-leaders-personality-traits-common_l_65c17191e4b0dbc806adcdba

    It would be interesting to see one on cult followers.

    In particular, why do some people *need* someone to look up to, someone to follow?
    What is missing in their lives?
    Why do think so little of themselves?
    Why do they have such low self-esteem?

It didn’t go far enough for me, and I didn’t trust the state’s intention. I do however agree that we need to remove this sexist language from our constitution, but they need to do more work on the replacement wording. Similarly, I strongly believe that we need to recognise families that are not based on marriage, so they need to go away and work on the wording. The government fecked up royally

    @Marc Power: A zombie?

    I presume you are referring to Biden.

    But you would only believe that if you buy into the narrative of the US media.

    Which is billionaire and corporate owned.

    Take a look at the achievements of the Biden administration – which the US media does not want to discuss, except to try to find fault – and decide for yourself.

    Take a look at unedited* copies of the State of the Union address.

    Do these think suggest anything other than Biden has a sharp incisive mind.

    Even a simple thing such as how he deal with hecklers – like that low Klass MTG – shows both an alertness and quick intelligence.

    Trump on the other hand has no redeeming qualities.
