Tom Kennedy

Well perhaps if Kennedy had actually bought the land what you are saying might well be correct. The rightfull owner is his Sister, who has the right to occupy her property without interference from Kennedy.

This site is being used simpy to peddle propaganda by those who have a vested interest in the case.

I feel sorry for Damian and more so for Justicia. They are both rigid with righteousness. They would clearly have rather seen Tom rot in prison rather than consider the fact that one of their legal brethren cocked-up.

Normal people would be full of compassion for all the Kennedy family at this time. Yes, there is a legal mess, but who caused it?

Answer, Solicitor Conyngham. He was Kennedy family solicitor for generations. He was party to all land transactions in the family. He had the duty of care to make sure the Land Registry records were up to date. He wrote the will of a the late Batt, knowing the sensitivities. He had the duty of care to specify in the will the properties covered by the will to avoid doubt.

His negect of the registration and the vagueness of the will that he prepared for Batt each represent gross professional negligence. He died leaving this mess behind him but his firm lives.on and has washed its hands of the misery that has ensued.

I'll say no more on the issue

Judge Buttimer, who predictably turned a blind eye to the letter of the law to allow Kennedy out on compassionate leave, made it crystal clear that if he persisted in obstructing the rightful owner, he like any other person who might make an unlawful attempt to grab the property of another and defy the court would inevitably find himself back in prison.

There is nothing noble or progressive about attempting to take someone else's property. It s even less noble for third parties to use the delusions of a man who has confused right with righteousness to further an agenda which has little to do with assisting Kennedy to reconcile himself with reality and much to do with hate and vengeance against the legal process which has dealt inconvenient justice to the same third parties.

Still a long way to go in this one, don't forget there are many more court cases to go.

Sadly I think he'll be seeing the inside of that prison again.

"What does it reveal about our country?"

What it reveals (for me) is that there is very little regard, or even knowledge maybe, for basic human rights, and for basic human rights law.

This was a sorry saga.

Glad Tom is OK and back on his farm
