Gerry Adam

His press conference tonight.
Sorry you didn't like the food matey but better than being dragged from your home, in front of your young children, tortured and executed by the IRA - the people who, again, you said today you would never disassociate yourself from.

they are not alone, according to her son who witnessed her abduction,
however he said he knows who did it, and anyone would understand why he can't say, think what would happen if he named Adams directly and others, his life and any member of the family will be at risk - he has children i believe so they could be targets, terrible dilemma then as now

I must confess to not really understanding this question either, but assuming it's about Gerry Adams, I'd say 4 things, one of which I mentioned before

The evidence, in so far as we know it, would be unlikely to be used in an actual trial.

It was right that he should have been hauled in for questioning, and probably inevitable, conspiracy theories aside, that he would be released

"Dark forces" probably are at work here. Probably on the dissident republican side

It is possible for someone to be a killer and also a peacemaker. Sometimes the most effective peacemakers have to be those who were in a war. No one is all good or all bad. it's just the way life is.

Should have apologised much earlier for missing the S off Adams. Can't imagine what four-letter word could begin with S.
