His local hometown paper has at least three articles about him:

Article Title: Man was drunk

A man arrested drunk for his own safety appeared sober before Donnchadh O Buachalla in New Ross District Court last week. Seamus Culleton from Kilbride, Glenmore was picked up for his own safety by Garda Edward Barry who came across him at 12.35 a.m. on O'Hanrahan Bridge on July 23 last year. The apprentice plasterer accepted that he was extremely drunk on the night in question and he was fined ?200.

The two other articles in the New Ross Standard details

This is hilarious so many people were rallying around this Irish guy who has a warrant out for his arrest in Ireland.

The apprentice plasterer accepted that he was extremely drunk on the night in question and he was fined ?200.

The other two articles include:
September 30 2007 bench warrant for criminal damage
May 17, 2008 warrant for unlawful possession of drugs, possession for sale or supply, & obstruction.

Additionally, people from his hometown are writing that he had a partner and twins who he abandoned when he fled to the United States.

I want to know if his wife is going to still be supporting him. Well, that is if she really is truly his wife and not someone he paid to get a green card.

You’re just trying to use side issues to distract from the fact that ICE is putting people who haven’t had any kind of orderly judicial review in concentration camps, without any regular independent oversight.

He was offered a flight back to Ireland. He doesn’t have to stay in the camp.

I think this was a case of "but, I'm white.. they'll let me out soon".

I'll say again

PSA: people who have overstayed their visas in the past should get out *NOW*, otherwise, you risk being put in a torture camp. Staying in this country really isn't worth that risk.

None of this gives the U.S. the right to violate civil rights. The U.S. must not legally or morally HAVE "torture camps."

? did I say it did? This is the reality on the ground. How many people are sitting in those torture camps even if they shouldn't be? 100% it's wrong, but it's better to be back from where they came from than sit in these camps.

You are advocating that people, who may or may not actully have a right to stay after due process figures out their facts and status, should leave based on fear because our current administration is violating the Consititution. That's backward.

Our immigration process has long sufferred from a lack of court resources (which Trump made worse), which is why people languish in status limbo for years. Fix the problem by increasing capacity to process. There is no good reason for this country not to have a process in place to rapidly adjudicate and process immigrants.

Yes, I am saying people who have had removal orders or overstayed their visas in the past should leave now. The alternative is to risk being imprisoned with the current administration. Is it right what Trump's admin is doing? No. There's a special place in hell for ICE agents right now. Even the folks who were eventually released by ICE spent time in these torture camps. Would you risk it? I sure as hell wouldn't.

When the Nazis were starting to target Jews, some Jews stayed thinking that it would eventually be over. That didn't work out as they thought, either.

Also, right now, the DOJ and DHS are lawless and aren't following court orders. So again, I would not risk it.

The victim?
He doesn't want to go back to his home country because there is a warrant out for his arrest!
He is no victim, honey.

I love that this guy was supposed to be some kind of a cause because he was fighting the good fight.

It turns out what he is really terrified of is being met plane side in Ireland by some combination of the police, his baby momma, and his abandoned daughters.

Any guess how much child support he must owe back home?

You can bet that is going to be a real punch in the wallet, even for a drug dealer…

I am not going to read anything against this guy for several reasons.

1. When an action is wrong it is wrong, no matter who is the recipient. In the United States, it doesn't matter if someone committed a crime, you still can't violate his human rights. It doesn't matter if someone once upon a time broke the law, you still can't shoot him in the back. We are discussing the actions of this administration, not the moral character of its victims.

2. The Trump administration always villifies victims (see Renee Good, Alex Pretti and EVERYONE else they have shot) as well as everyone they have detained ("the worst of the worst"). This is the MO and it has gotten old, tired, and is full of holes.

3. The Trump administration are proven fabricators of stories. They are liars. I no longer believe ANYTHING this government says. It is too bad because there are likely some truths mixed in with the lies but I no longer believe one single thing. This is what happens when you lie and lie again: the erosion of trust. If your lips are moving, I assume you are lying.

4. The Trump administration can break laws with impunity and the rest of us are held to an impossibly high standard. I reject this hypocrisy.

He is counting on rubes like you to take up his cause in order to prevent his deportation. Why do you think he is claiming to be tortured? To convince you that he is a victim.

You people are so damned gullible.

He can probably throw up a gofundme and net enough donations from suckers to start up a new family somewhere else.

Speaking of gullible…”you people” voted for a reality TV star who pretends to be tanned, pretends to have a full head of hair, pretends to be a good businessman, pretends he is healthy, pretends to have a wife in the traditional sense of the word, pretends to care about anyone other than himself, and plays the role of president on TV.

None of this changes the abuses from the Trump administration. Nor the lies. We don't believe you because you lie. And even if we did, you are still violating human rights and ignoring the law right and left. Ergo, you are wrong.

I don’t care if he was Jeffrey Dahmer. His character and past is not the point. By being white and foreign, he is bringing attention to the way immigration authorities in the US treat visa overstayers (overstaying your visa, even by decades, is not a crime under current US law) and to the abhorrent conditions in US detention centers.

The issue is not this particular man. It is the detention centers themselves. It is the overcrowding and unsanitary conditions. It is the behavior of the guards. It is the illegally long detentions. It is withholding food and medical care. It is the behavior of ICE and CBP.

Even if we were talking about a convicted criminal from Tren de Aragua (and you lied about that over and over and OVER with the Venezuelans in El Salvador, with the Chicago raid, every time LIE LIE LIE). But even if we were talking about a convicted criminals from Tren de Aragua or MS 13, our country has laws that need to be upheld. We have standards. Without them, we become "the worst of the worst" and some of us do not want that.
