Graham Dwyer Murder Trial,my Take.

Elaine O Hara has been found to have been murdered by Graham Dwyer in possibly the most published criminal trial  in recent memory.The jury were present for most of the evidence produced and presumably had a far greater overview of the case than thee likes of mise who has only the reported version to rely on and I accept without reservation the verdict delivered.
Aside from the fact that there was no evidence she died violently and that his wife's evidence that a spade found near the grave was his was forensically proved wrong,the accumulated circumstantial evidence was the plank on which he swung,as it were.
There is one aspect of the trial that makes me wonder however and this is it.You have to be a clever person to become an architect ,dunces don't qualify.
Dwyer was painted as a manipulative ,scheming sadist and must have been  double clever to carry out his dual lives as respectable architect and devoted family man and a master  bdsm devotee,particularly in these days of  ever present CCTV coverage ,which his profession would always encounter.
Why a clever man such as he would leave a trail of semen in the CCTV covered apartment bed of his intended victim shows an an extraordinary lapse of  care for such a devious and manipulative man .
You couldn't have pointed the finger more at yourself if you tried.
Just saying.
The other aspect of the case,which taken in connection with the Bailey case which makes me wonder is the heroics of voluntary witnesses,who do their civic duties.
In the Dwyer case the evidence of Dyers current and ex wives against him have been universally praised as the epitome of the fulfillment of a civic duty.
IN the Ian Bailey case the evidence of voluntary witness Mairead Farrell,who changed  evidence mid stream ,because she alleged, of Gardai mis behaviour,her behaviour in this regsard has been referred to the DPP ,presumably for consideration of perjury.
So together with having her past romantic indiscretions exposed and being publicly skewered on the witness box she is being threatened with the offence of perjury.
Thia sends one message to me loud and clear and it is this..If you make a statement to the Gardai knowing it to be untrue,never,never try to  tell the truth and correct it unless you are prepared to be excoriated by the legal system ,have the minutest details of you past life revealed  and be threatened with a perjury conviction.
And the other thing is this,Don't take on the State,They have unlimited taxpayer donated resources to defend their position.You don't.
