Dublin John, the accidental terrorist

Article Abstract:

An appeal hearing is to take place shortly against the jailing of John Kinsella for 16 years for his involvement with the IRA terrorists responsible for planting a bomb at the gasworks in Warrington, England. Paddy Loftus, who has organized the campaign in support of Kinsella, points out that there were many faults with this conviction. Kinsella was clearly not an IRA member, and was duped by his nephew into hiding bomb-making equipment. The IRA itself has stated that Kinsella is not one of its volunteers, and this should play a valuable role in securing his release.

Damning report on managers in Rikki Neave case

Article Abstract:

The UK Social Services Inspectorate has published a very critical report on standards of child protection work by social services in Cambridgeshire, England. The county's social services department took more than two years to respond to issues raised by the death in 1994 of Rikki Neave, and planned changes to child protection services are already behind schedule. The report concludes that there are still grave concerns about the safety of children and young people in the county.

When bank manager Ian Lumb's overdraft became too big, he stole 100,000 pounds sterling to begin a new life - but though his job was to help others, he could not help himself

Article Abstract:

Ian Lumb, formerly an assistance bank manager for the National Westminster Bank, has received a two year jail sentence for stealing 94,000 pounds sterling from his branch. After the theft, he spent seven months travelling across France to avoid capture. During this time, he apparently suffered a nervous breakdown, and almost committed suicide. He was driven to steal the money because of secret financial difficulties.
