Detective Garda Donohue woule be alive today if a professional security firm trained in cash transit work with right protocols including not approaching would be robbers did this work. Time the government outsourced such work and let detectives do "detective work" and cash transit specialists move cash? May he rest in peace.

It's so ironic. When something this tragic happens in Ireland it's national news. Over here in the states - we hardly notice. It's pretty common over here across the pond, you know?

The murdr of Detective Garda Donohue is a very serious atrosity, and all possible precautions should be taken to ensure that law-enforcement officials on both sides of the Border should be protected. The murders probably know that even if they are caught and convicted, bleeding hearts will be calling for mercy, not for any punishment.
