A curiosity I came across in one of the newspaper reports on the court hearing was that Smith spoke in English and Sheehan had to be given an interpreter because he couldn’t understand the language.

Apart from the oddity about Smith insisting on English in court, is it even possible for a policeman to not understand English?

[Daphne – Yes. Face it, he can’t even speak Maltese.]

Actually they lost their jobs/were demoted because they felt that defending this person was more important than bring transparent with us the people.

No it is not.

Chief Justice is up for grabs soon.

Take Inspector Louise Calleja. She was head of the Vice Squad. She is accused of having arraigned and prosecuted an innocent man who ended up for over a year in jail.

What does she get? Even before it was discovered what she had done, they created a special job for her at the airport so she gets special privileges like conferences abroad. That is how Labour ‘punishes’ evil.

”If it hadn’t been for a handful of free journalists and the Opposition, this incident could have been concealed from the scrutiny of the public, the perpetrators would have revelled in the complacency of the un-reacting uninformed masses, and then reinforced their abusive and bullying behaviour.”
