There's Something About Mary

It's her big mouth, actually.

This is Mary "Eircom" O'Rourke we're talking about. Remember how she told everyone to look on Eircom as a long-term investment? And then, when everything went Mary-shaped, how she blithely pointed out that investors would have made a profit if they had sold their shares in the first few months after the flotation?

Well, now she's busily trying to extract her outsize foot from her outsize mouth after
comments she made - under privilege, naturally - about the murder of young Latvian mother Baiba Saulite in Swords.
“It is difficult to read the article in the Irish Independent today which states that the husband of the murdered Latvian woman is a suspect. He has a cast-iron alibi but was obviously able to direct operations,” she said.
Subsequently, Mary claimed that she "may have inadvertently given the impression that the murder of the young Latvian woman, Baiba Saulite, was guided by a particular person."
