Default ‘Sorry, it’s too heavy’ - DEAD Irish OAP delivered to POST OFFICE
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-60091753

https://www.irishtimes.com/news/irel...sion-1.4782598

On Friday morning the Carlow town post office was called by a member of the public who asked if he could ‘collect a pension’ on an OAP’s behalf

When told no, and that the pensioner would have to appear in person, the schemers TOOK the man,66 , to the Post Office, at 11:30am

There was one problem: he was DEAD

This was only realised when the man was propped against the wall
A member of staff enquired about his well-being
His two accomplices then fled, as the dead OAP slumped to the floor


Scene of the crime: Carlow town post office

Gardai said a house has been sealed off, as a ‘crime scene’ and a ‘full post mortem’ would take place

The Irish Times interviewed Carlow locals, who claimed the man was ‘well liked’


The pensioners body was removed from the crime scene , a local beauty technician claimed it was ‘unbelievable’

What sort of people are incapable of raising human beings to be civilised? Surely there was a School attended by these people in their lives that taught them right from wrong? Where did the breakdown away from humanity happen?

Maybe

But also he wouldn’t have been walking, more like a drag
He was probably also wearing big shades to cover his shut eyes

If I was them I would have taken him in a wheelchair, and told them he was sleeping but had given me a handwritten note that gave me permission

It can’t be, because then they’d have legally claimed the pension
And he was ‘well liked’ , he must have had family and friends to check round on him often, he was probably murdered 😔 hardly had the chance to spend any of his pension, that’s probably why he was targeted

Don’t be silly Arista the state would have buried him if they had no funds and the fact that they could bring him in must mean he had died very recently ...

https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/amp.t...d-mans-pension

Apparently the pensioner was ‘well known’ to the men.

Might be their dad, his pension was due so they wanted to cash in.

But they surely would have done it legally
My guess is that they were either neighbours, or carers

You can not legally cash in a state pension of a person that is dead.
