In 1998, Sinn Fein/PIRA offered me an opportunity to walk away from allegations they were manufacturing against me, I refused the offer...No Regrets, Rather Die on My Feet, Than Live on my Knees...(I have the evidence to support what I am stating here as fact)... https://twitter.com/theirishobserve/status/1318672862174208004

It gets worse, in 1999 when I was arrested in Monaghan, I was offered the opportunity to walk away, yet again, if I agreed to work for Gardai in NI, here is the actual piece of paper on which Garda Special Branch wrote his name and personal address for contact, again I refused...

When I refused to work for Gardai in 1999, Senior Garda, Joseph Sullivan told media I was working for The British, the article was written by Betrix Campbell in British Sunday Independent, it all went down hill from there...but I did not give in, March 1999 I done CBS documentary

Finally on this thread: The State Solicitor in The Republic offered me a deal in 2000, if I would plead guilty to a sample charge I would get 12 months suspended (going rate at the time) this was offered as it was word against word, no other 'evidence', I refused, rest is History
