WEST CORK MURDERER IAN BAILEY

  Jim Sheridan, Ian Bailey and Cassandra Voices 1.       Introduction In the Cassandra Voices interview with Jim Sheridan , he discusses the relationship he developed with Ian Bailey , who was rightly found guilty in absentia of the 1996 murder of Sophie Toscan du Plantier.  The interview offers insights into the way Sheridan thinks. It shows us why, while the thinking process may contribute to his award-winning movies, it is not conducive to investigating this crime. 2.       Where I agree with Jim One issue where I am in full agreement with Jim Sheridan is that Bailey could not unequivocally prove he did not murder Sophie. In law, Bailey was never obliged to prove he did not do it. However, had he had an alibi this matter would have been settled decades ago. Initially, he had an alibi, a false alibi, supported by Jules Thomas. A false alibi is a lie or series of lies told to the Police to deceive them into believing a person could not have committed the crime. On February 1
