This case collapsed because the evidence against him was tainted, despite the failure of the prosecution of two Garda officers for perjury, the evidence was still inadmissible and due to the doctrine known colloquially as the fruit of the poisoned tree, the evidence in it's totality was tainted.
Why did they bring a case without the sufficient amount of clean evidence being gathered before?
surely they knew that the original tainted evidence would be inadmissible?
