    1963 - 60 years ago. Those young guys would be nearly 80 now. It would be interesting to hear some of their stories afterwards.

    Lads back then found it hard to get a job after being in saint pats... A few years ago wheni got out i left with a juniour cert once out i obtained my leaving cert and neither did me any good .... Once your record is marked by detention or imprisonment its closes so many doors and makes obtaining good work hard..... System needs to be changed what good is prison if a man serves his time but still gets punished once there time is served

    We seek too much from detention. Nobody gets sentenced to rehabilitation. A sentence is given to fit the crime. Once that sentence is served the offender is free to go. We cannot enquire as to whether the offender has changed his/ attitude to crime. The period of detention has worked in that it kept the offender from crime for that period.
    We do not have the knowledge or skills to change people's behaviour during the serving of the sentence. We have theories. We have confused ideas about what might work. Two people treated identically in prison often have totally different outcomes. Of course we must do our best for people who offend. But let us not pretend that we can prescribe treatment that is likely to stop reoffending.

      It looks like a regular a penitentiary (prison) and not a positive place for rehabilitation. It looks miserable. In 1963 they wanted to get in modern place, yet in 1983 nothing was done. Wow! Sad. @alcool1028 - I hope you were able to stay in society and not have to go back there. I hope your life got better.

      I've heard the hard lads cry and try blame someone else it's the bullies who cry. The first guy John Byrne lives across the road and is very well off thanks to his friends he grew up with lol wait till I show his son this yee haaa. St. Pats wasn't like that when I was there it was full of heroin and nothing else. Mountjoy changed for the worse too. Prison is horrible your daughters won't know what the story is I two daughters myself.

    My brother was abused by the Christian Brothers in Dunlaoghaire in the 1950s. My family emigrated Eire for Australia. My brother was abused by the Marist Brothers in Bendigo Australa. He ended up rebelling and ended up in Youth Jail. He eventually got a job in the merchant navy upon release. He is now 7 I with onset dementia. Thirty-five years ago I entered training for the priesthood. He asked me why I'd want to do a stupid thing like that. He started crying and told me how he had been abused. I was shocked but refused to believe him. When my spiritual advisor tried to be sexual with me I left the order. He was later accused by school boys for inappropriate behaviour towards them. I realized that my brother was telling the truth. How many countless lives have been ruined by these dog collared men in black? How many suicides? Kids in prison. Biggest cult in the World. BTW- the miraculous medal is a depiction of the vagina. It's the Vagina Mary not the Virgin Mary.

Jail is too easy now I remember being thrown in a cell with tooth paste all over the walls and nothing to read had to get a little radio and buy our own batteries that was doing jail and no Jack's.
