Veronica Guerin
Father, look kindly on your children|who put their trust in you.
Bless them and keep them from all harm.
Strengthen them against|the attacks of the devil.
May they never offend you,|but seek to love you in all they do.
May Almighty God bless you,|the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.
The Mass has ended.|Go in peace to love and serve the Lord.
Thanks be to God.
Good morning, Mary. How are you?
Good morning, Elizabeth. How are you?
Good morning, Bernie.
Father, would you say a prayer|to Our Lady for an intervention?
- What's wrong? Is someone sick?|- No.
I just want us to pray for my daughter|to lose her driving licence.
Case number 37 422: Veronica Guerin.
Almost 1 200 parking tickets.
March 1 0th, speeding ticket.
Just last month another speeding ticket|for driving at 1 04 miles per hour.
Well, now, I think that shows|some improvement by my client, Judge.
I'll alert mothers it's safe|to let their children back on the streets.
I... I deserve to lose this case, Judge.|That's fair enough, you know.
But if I can't drive, I can't do my job. I'm|a journalist with the Sunday Independent.
We all know who you are, Miss Guerin.|That does not grant you immunity.
This is Bernie Guerin. I can't take your call|at the moment. Please leave a message.
Mum, I'm driving!|Can you believe it? He let me off.
He actually let me off.|I love you, Mum. Talk to you.
Ah, no! You're having me on.
No, I swear to God. Just a 1 00 fine|and a warning. I'm behind the wheel again.
- It's your ma, the criminal.|- Hi, Ma.
Well, I hope you've learned a lesson|and reformed your ways, young lady.
- Hey, you're not speeding now, are you?|- No, of course I'm not.
Well, maybe a little.
What did you say to that daft judge?
I told him I was guilty as sin.
And he let you off?|Pleads a great case for judicial reform.
Yeah. Another repeat offender|returned to decent society.
This is Garda detective Chris Mulligan.|Please leave a message.
You didn't get me this time, Chris.|Still got the wheels.
I was fined - you're gonna love this -|1 00 quid. Can you believe it?
You owe me lunch. You said wherever|I want, and I'm expensive, don't forget.
Veronica?
Veronica?
How are you, boss?
Push off, you little scum.
Come on, get your money ready. 5.
How are you?
The name's Veronica.|I write for the Sunday Independent.
May I ask you some questions?|D'you mind?
How much d'you pay for one of those?
A few quid. Anyway, it's cheaper|to rent someone else's needle.
What about the score?
- First one's free.|- Well, I heard 5.
- Where d'you get the cash for all this?|- I just say to some broad like you:
''Give me your money|or I'll inject you with AlDS.''
- How old are you?|- What's it to you?
I'm writing a piece for the paper.|I wanna know where you get the gear.
I'll do your work for you.|Come back when you got some money.
- Fatso, don't be spending that on food.|- I'll check it later.
- Lost, are we?|- Who might you be?
- Neighbourhood watch.|- Yeah, well, better keep an eye out.
I hear there's some dodgy scangers about.
Ah, Jamey, Jamey, Jamey, Jamey.
You're an awful man, do you know that?
What'd you have to go and shoot|your mouth off to the Gards about me for?
Did you think I wouldn't find out it was you?
You know, I was thinking about killing you.
And then I thought to myself,|people get killed every day,
So I've decided|I'm going to have to hurt you a bit.
Actually, I'm going to hurt you an awful lot.
But the good news is that I'm going to|do you meself. Oh, yeah. Personally.
