THE TERMINATED JOHN GILL

There he was, gone!  And whooshing off the internet attached to his coat tails, are the vile sites he ruled over like some latter day crazed dictator.

It seems that John Gill (aka St. John, aka The Lone Ranger, aka Dick Turpin) has gone.  Or at least his websites RateYourSolicitor.com and CrookedLawyers.com have.  Following a High Court injunction in a case of defamation taken by Sligo based Solicitor Damien Tansey against John Gill and others, Justice Michael Peart has ordered injunctions requiring the sites be closed.

From The Irish Times (2 February 2012):

"In his ruling, Mr Justice Peart said he would grant mandatory injunctions, pending the full hearing of the action, against Mr Gill, Drumline, Newmarket-on-Fergus, Co Clare, and Ms Vogelaar, Parklands, Westport, Co Mayo, requiring them to terminate the operation of the website.


The defendants were also ordered to remove material posted about Mr Tansey on the website and to refrain from publishing further defamatory material about him. They must also deliver up the names and addresses of all those involved in the posting of defamatory material, plus details about those who operated the site.


Mr Tansey obtained similar orders against Dotster, a US-based firm which he alleged provides internet services to those hosting the website. In the absence of any defence put forward by Dotster, Mr Justice Peart granted judgment against it in favour of Mr Tansey."

From the above article: "They must also deliver up the names and addresses of all those involved in the posting of defamatory material".  This, I (and no doubt many others) await the outcome of with great interest and if it comes to fruition, the gates to many people being sued will be swung wide open.

At last we are to get the names and addresses of those who posted vile postings!

Some of us know exactly who posted various posts, under various pseudonyms, but it will be interesting to have this confirmed and to see for definite who the others are.  At last we are to get the names and addresses of those who posted vile postings and they in turn will have to put their money where their mouths are!

But back to The Terminated, John Gill, formerly St. John, The Lone Ranger & Dick Turpin.  Can you just imagine the writhings, rantings and screams of the now shut up John Gill over the "injustice" of it all (think vampire splashed with Holy Water if you will).  How he could represent himself and lose so badly?  Which, in fairness, would not be the first time he has failed so dismally ... in fact he has NEVER WON, EVER.  His delusions as to his ability on the law knows no bounds ~ any man who has managed to land not only himself in jail but some of his band of followers he gave his legal advice to, proves that.  He is probably currently blowing steam from all orifices at yet another "injustice".  He will be like an Alka Seltzer dropped into a glass of water.

And oh, the irony.  The platforms he set up from which he could be a little tin god have melted at his own  hands and because of .  him.  In truth, he never gave a damn for anyone else and clearly only used the sites to beat his own drum, which he did very loudly (think empty vessels). 

Evidence of his indifference to others and his total disinterest in anyone but himself is clearly evidenced in a youtube clip they put up to advertise the dead horse of a tome he is flogging, where John Gill can be seen very clearly seen leaning over to his close friend and, pre Ms. Chrysanthemum, constant companion, Elva Gallagher, asking her the name of the Judge in her case.

This is one of his most devoted followers, one who has been at his side almost constantly for many years now.  You rarely see one without the other, more so in fact than we ever hear of or see Mrs. Gallagher and her jailbird husband, Daniel, together.

If you can put up with that absolutely appalling filming and sound, watch the clip to see what I mean HERE.  I must warn you that it is mind numbingly tedious to watch and suggest to circumvent your losing the will to live watching it, you hit the pause button and go back when it is fully loaded and click along the bar at the bottom of the clip to the times I have added below here.

You will see it at 9:26 (if you look to the bottom left of the clip you will see the time running). 

Along the way to that clip, as Mr. Gill mumbles almost incoherently to a crowd of oh, at least thirty, Mrs. Gallagher possibly attempting to change his batteries to speed things up at 3:00 on the clip.  I wonder who gave him the bonk on the head that had him appear in public with a dirty big bandage wrapped around his little noggin, emphasising his Brillo pad style 'do?

Were Mrs. Gallagher not totally in his thrall, or even if she was and had even one shred of dignity, surely she should have got up at that point and excused herself from the top table?  He seems to engender that slavish following among a small group of people, many of them women of a certain age.

Of course now his voice on the internet is hushed, nay ceased, will these devoted little people be able to adore him so well and freely?  Will they build shrines throughout the country to St. John, the Lone Ranger and now The Terminated?  Will there be much gnashing of gums and weeping and wailing as they tear their hair out (those who have hair)?

Will anyone other than the devoted twenty or something of his devoted followers even bother that The Terminated is terminated?

I doubt it.  Good bye and good riddance and don't let the door hit you on the way out is more likely.
