Message: <blockquote data-quote="Professor" data-source="post: 122159" data-attributes="member: 202">A man who bragged that he punched his vulnerable victim “like Conor McGregor in the UFC”, in an assault that caused the young man’s death, has been found guilty of murder.The Central Criminal Court jury of five women and seven men took five hours and 11 minutes to reach their unanimous verdict following Maurice Boland’s second trial for the murder of 26-year-old Cian Gallagher. His first trial in April of this year ended in a jury disagreement.  .   .  .  .  .  .  .  . However, prosecution counsel Bernard Condon SC told the jury the victim did not “spontaneously fall”. He was pursued by Boland, counsel said, who had earlier in the night been drunkenly threatening to “beat the sh*t out” of a patron at a bar, and “smash his face in”.[URL unfurl="true"]https://www.irishtimes.com/crime-law/courts/2024/12/06/man-who-punched-victim-like-conor-mcgregor-in-the-ufc-found-guilty-of-murder/[/URL]<img class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" alt="😖" title="Confounded face    :confounded:" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/6.5/png/unicode/64/1f616.png" data-shortname=":confounded:" /> What can one say??Perhaps, alcohol/drugs mixed with conflict/fighting is a highly dangerous combination (but sure that's stating the bleedin' obvious) .  .  .  .</blockquote>
