The key statement that led to the conviction of [Bernard] Lynch – that made by Bartholomew Madden – had been taken after his legal detention period had expired. Gardaí began taking the voluntary statement under caution at 6.40am, just 35 minutes before the 48-hour legal period of detention was due to elapse. By the time they’d finished it was 9am – an hour and three quarters after it had expired. The appeal judge ruled that the statement was inadmissible. (Daily Mail 19 June 2011)
