I read that Frank Dunlop got 2 years jail with the last 6 months suspended and a €30,000 fine.
How are they ever going to get anyone to spill the beans again if the main man is going to get crucified by blowing the whistle.
I was listening to the radio in the last couple of days and it seems to be an Irish thing where people who come clean are treated very badly.
In the States and other places they get better treatment, as far as I'm concerned the man preformed a public service by coming forward.
Call me a cynic but I feel hes taking the fall for them all.
Very few (if any) other dodgy civil servants will be found out (or chased). The rest of them can sleep safely in the knowledge that the Irish System has once again covered itself in ignorance by punishing one fallguy for the good of the rest . .
I thought prison was there to lock away dangerous criminals to protect the public
I hope the prision experince is a positive one for him and that it sends the correct message to others who may be tempted to act similarly.
Have to say i think it is crazy that he got jail. I always remember that rapist who got the suspended sentence and then taunted the girl he raped on the way home. Wasn't is a 2 year suspended sentence? I have dealt with Mr. Dunlop in my work in the past and he is a nice man, I would agree with a fine but I think that much jail is a bit much, didn't he plead guilty?

Yes, he did not come clean until leaned on very heavily by the judge. I would like to see many more of his ilk serving time also.He's a criminal !!!! He bribed people, he lied to the tribunal and only admitted the truth when the judge asked him to "reflect" on his statements to date as evidence to the contrary emerged. He did everything he could in the first instance to avoid coming clean
Hopefully this is only the beginning of white collar criminals been jailed in this country.
