On Monday, the Irish Examiner reported that 13 members of An Garda Síochána were interviewed that day in a Limerick Garda station as part of the inquiry. Notably, the senior garda referenced above was interviewed not in a station but in his solicitor’s office, a detail that requires further examination. The senior member then “requests” the square from the frontline rank and file members who detected the motoring offence. Yet despite that dynamic, it is the rank and file members who are being treated as the main culprits. Meanwhile, there has been little about the senior members at the nexus of the squaring of tickets.
