Father Joseph Marmion a Sexual Predator
Jesuit maxim;- For those who believe, no words are necessary. For those who do not believe, no words are possible. Inappropriateness with vulnerable children was Father Joseph Marmion moto- as is the religious ethics of the Irish Catholic Church at large. The Irish Catholic Church knew the differences from things that are illicit in that inappropriate behaviour does not necessarily have any accompanying legal ramifications. Certainly in Ireland there were and are no legal ramifications, this is why they, the Clerics got away with the rape of tens of thousands of children over the decades. The Irish Catholic Church can and did police themselves without any intrusiveness, they after all were the Rulers of Ireland. In reality, everybody in Ireland and abroad knew that an elected Irish Politician had no cojones. A few days ago, The Jesuit Order named a teacher, a Priest, Father Joseph Marmion who sexually, physically Raped boys in the 1970s. Here we go again, the same modus operandi, will kick-in, one of the most prestigious schools in Ireland, Belvedere College, in Dublin was run by the Jesuit Order of pedophiles. A single-sex boys’ establishment with a reputation for predatory behaviour, by its very own pedophile Clerics. "the manly character of boys will be induced by sex games and sport" say the Jesuits- The Jesuits also famously hyjacked Aristotle’s quote — 'Give me a child until he is 7 and I will show you the man.’ Pope Francis is the first Pope to have belonged to the Society of Jesus, The Jesuits. Belvedere College strives for excellence in all we endeavour including the rape of children. The College’s vision of the future of education in Belvedere is built on the outdated tradition of Jesuit education and a side-order or helpings of the rape of children by its own Clerics. It has done so for over 400 years. Here what Belvedere College says on its website;- The phrase Cura Personalis (Statement of Core Values) is used to describe how each student is nurtured and cared for- ( to include Rape). Each student is helped to explore their unique talents and gifts and made feel they are part of a community that recognises and celebrates achievement in many different fields. I bet the wealthy parents who entrusted their young boys to the Jesuits were never consulted when their children were raped by their very own holy Jesuits. The website goes on to say- “The mission of the Belvedere Community – Jesuits, Board, Staff, Parents, present students and past pupils – is to ensure that graduates of the College by their relationship with Jesus Christ and through living Gospel values, shall be persons for others in leadership and example in the pursuit of a just world”. Let’s be clear, the senile Irish Catholic Church of course knows nothing will happen, it never does, no matter the outrage, just a few bad headlines for a day or two. The Cults way of thinking is;- it was so long ago that the rapes happened, who cares. The Jesuits involved are long dead the rest are in their dotage, and conventiently can’t remember raping multiple young boys-and of course the old refrain “Let bygone be bygone” will be sung out by their favourite media outlets and their willing stooges. The Characteristics of Jesuit Education;- School Pastoral Care implies caring for the quality of relationships between the Jesuits and the vulnerable boys. It involves the engagement of all the school policies, processes and programmes in the development of the appropriate systemic structures, roles and resources to support the development of the emerging adult. The term ‘pastoral’ is rooted in biblical imagery where the metaphor of Christ as the Good Shepherd, but wait, I never remember reading that Jesus raped anybody. The Belvedere College Boys encounter the person of a Jesuit or Jesuits as a friend, a guide but really heinous pedophiles, lurking around for their next victim, playing and praying on the young boy’s vulnerabilities. The boy or boys come to know the saintly kind and holy Jusuit through his personal and communal sex-games and work. The proverbial Fox looking after the helpless chickens, the pedophile puts on a dog collar and black dress of his religion and he is instantaneously holy, molts into a holy priest, what a miracle of transformation. A kind of metamorphosis of a benevolent Priest into a hidious, sex starved pedophile. The Belvedere College website goes on to say;- Each member of the school community has a significant role to play in creating and protecting the pastoral ethos of the school and as an individual has access to the pastoral structures and procedures in place. My god it was all rubbish, the ethos of Belvedere College was plain and simple, pedophiles hiding in plain sight, the Jesuits themselves. Again the newspapers and TV Media can’t even use the word RAPE- ;- The Provincial, Fr Leonard Moloney, said he met the former pupil, who expressed concern for others and asked that his abuser (rapist) be named. In a statement, the Jesuit Order said it has been in contact with other boys over many years who were raped by Father Joseph Marmion while they were young students. Why on earth were the Irish Police not informed as a matter of course. In fact The Provincial, Fr Leonard Moloney, should be arrested immediately for obstruction and covering up multiple crimes against children. The school itself, Belvedere College should be closed down because it is a crime scene and its entire staff, past and present, investigated. There should be no immunity especially for sanctimonious Clerics, from the crimes of child rape and the holy Joes that enabled them and did nothing. This in of itself is outrageous- Belvedere College and its Order of degenerates that ran the school knew about children being raped for years and did nothing, why on earth are we still having this conversation today. The College and its Order of degenerates should be shut down immediately, its property seized and the degenerates thrown into prison. Now the Irish Catholic Church’s modus operandi, is on full display- and here it is;- A decision was taken by the Jesuit Order in Ireland and the Archbishop of Dublin at the time that Father Joseph Marmion be removed from the staff in Belvedere with effect from the end of the academic year 1977/1978. But wait for it;- The pedophile Father Joseph Marmion who Belvedere College knew was a serial pedophile and child rapist never informed the Irish Police- never stripped the pedophile Father Joseph Marmion of his priestly duties. Instead the Irish Catholic Church rewarded this pedophile Priest, Father Joseph Marmion with a long paid holiday, a year long sabbatical to Paris where he raped French children, as he holidayed with the Jesuit Community in Paris. Than the Jesuit Community of Paris sent him back for a re-assignment to the Gardiner Street Jesuit Community, where the pedophile Jesuit Priest continued unabated with the rape of even more helpless children. Belvedere College and Gardiner Street Jesuit Community are just a few minutes walk from each other. In 1990, the pedophile Priest, Father Joseph Marmion was appointed Chaplain to St Vincent's Private Hospital, Dublin, owned by The Society of Saint Vincent de Paul. The pedophile Priest, Father Joseph Marmion was appointed by the Archbishop of Dublin at the time Cardinal Desmond Connell in 1990. Cardinal Desmond Connell a noted closet queen, refused to inform the Irish Police about any of his pedophile Clerics accused of the rape of children. Please don’t take my word for it just read the Murphy Commission Report https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murphy_Report I knew this pediphile rapist, Father Joseph Marmion because he was a regular visitor to the Boys Club in Eccles Street, Dublin, just a stone’s throw away from both Belvedere College and Gardiner Street Jesuit Community, in the late 60s and early 1970s. I was in the Boys Club from the age of 15 for over 3 years 1969 to 1973. At the time hundreds if not thousands of sex starved Clerics that roamed Dublin City, like wolf packs at the time, hunting and raping children with impunity. Other regular noted visitors to Eccles Street Boys Club was Archbishop McQuaid, who founded the Boys Club, in the early 1960s and Archbishop Diarmuid Martin, who was a student priest at the time, who came to the Boys Club for six or seven years, and Cardinal Desmond Connell who loved meeting the boys, smelling and reeking of sandalwood perfume. Many Priests who were regular visitors to the Boys Club in Eccles Street, Dublin later on, most of them were convicted of child rape. A few are still in Prison in Ireland. Just a few of the thousands of Clerics that visited Eccles Street Boys Club at the time. In fact Archbishop Diarmuid Martin celebrated his first mass at the Boys Club at the time in 1969. Something else, a who's who of the Catholic Church at the time passed into The Boys Club in Eccles Street Dublin. Father Joseph Marmion also taught at some of the most prestigious schools in Ireland, like the Crescent College Limerick and Clongowes Wood College, Co Kildare. The Jesuit Order said it recognises that "these subsequent appointments should not have been made”. The Jesuit Order now said;- "We have in the past apologised for raping children and invited children and survivors of abuse (Rape) by members of the Society of Jesus to come forward and to seek our help. Give me a break, help from our pedophile Priests, help in covering up the rapes of more children, the Cult, the Clerics, they will never learn. Be certain of one thing about a deviant pedophile, a Priest, he would over a long career have raped over 100 children in a year. Father Joseph Marmion was Ordained on 31st. July 1957 and died 15th. November 2000, at St Vincent’s Hospital, Dublin. Which bring me to the question - How many children did he rape? This one Priest, Father Joseph Marmion had been raping children for about 50 years. So let’s take a lower figure of 50 children a year he raped over a period as a Priest of his 50 years career. Now that equals to about 2,500 children over his Priestly Ministry lifetime. This is one Pedophile Priest. We know now that there were thousands of pedophile Priests in Ireland. Please just do the numbers, it was an avalanche of rape of vulnerable children by The Cult, The Catholic Church in Ireland and its Clerics. Hundreds of former students have confirmed the veracity of the allegations made against this one Priest, Father Joseph Marmion, during his time at the prestigious Belvedere College, including all the other prestigious colleges he taught at during his lifetime. Many ex-students say he is just the tip of the iceberg, one of many other Catholic Priests who taught at the Catholic Colleges many of these same Priests, also raped boys. Every religious run college, public or private schools, industrial schools, children were raped, that is a proven fact. Raped by Clerics that both the child and their parents trusted, absolutely. For many years many of these raped children never even told their own parents or families what happened to them at their Christian Schools, at the hands of Clerics, the fear and power of the Clerics was for to great. The Cult created a terror-state. This was achieved through intimidation and brutality. Irish Politicians, Policemen, Teachers and Judges had to swear an oath of loyalty to the Cult. This gave the Cult greater power over the Irish people. This also created tension and fear throughout the country. Members of the Cult had powers to arrest and detain those people who were considered enemies of the Cult. These preventative arrests were carried out separately from judicial control. This is why Ireland had hundreds of Detention Sites and Labour Camps, called Magdalene Laundries/Asylums, Industrial Schools, Orphanages, Mother and Baby Homes. The women and children who were detained in these Religious run Institutions under cruel and brutal conditions, and were often violently treated, raped and murdered.The Cults tactics included murder and torture of these, the women and children. Tens of thousands that died are still in hidden Septic Tanks, Cesspools and Mass Graves on these same Religious Institutions in Ireland. We here in Ireland need to explain how the Cult could take such effective hold of Ireland, that is another day for historians who still struggle to explain. The age range of the boys, at Belvedere College, was 9 years of age to 16 years of age.

For the thousands of Babies & Children of unethical human experiments and coerced research done under The Catholic Church’s auspices, must now be fully exposed. Sadly there has been no full evaluation of the numbers of Babies & Children of the Catholic Church who died in their pastoral care, more importantly who the Babies & Children were, and of the frequency and types of experiments done on them. But we do know this, that many Mother and Baby Homes, and Orphanages in Ireland were used for these evil experiments. Let’s be clear here 100% of all medical experiments under the Irish Catholic Church auspices were outrageously criminal. We now need a comprehensive evidence-based evaluation of the different crimes committed by these criminal experiments supported by the Irish Catholic Church, and not just those whose perpetrators were available for arrest and prosecution. The Irish Catholic Church, I accuse of organising and participating in crimes and crimes against humanity in the form of medical experiments and medical procedures inflicted on vulnerable Babies & Children in their Religious run Institutions.
These heinous experiments were conducted on defensible Babies & Children, including the deliberate killing of Babies & Children for anatomical research, the killing of tubercular children, and the euthanasia of sick and disabled Babies & Children in most of Ireland’s Religious run Institutions. I accuse the Irish Catholic Church, known as The Cult of ordering, supervising, and coordinating criminal activities, illegal experiments, trafficking of stolen babies and children and profiting directly from these illegal activities. We also know what tuberculosis immunisation, and polio experiments were conducted with fatal results, with many Babies and Children dying. There were more Babies and Children who survived than were killed as part of or as a result of the vaccine experiments, and the survivors often had severe injuries, many years later. It’s a little known fact that vulnerable Babies and Children of the Mother and Baby Homes, and Orphanages were often used as research subjects with fatal consequences. The Nuremberg Code’s first principle—the requirement of voluntary, competent, informed, and understanding consent—remains its most important and critical contribution to international law. The consent principle of the Code was “stunning and uncompromising on respect for persons- absolute informed consent requirement is a most. That includes children and people with mental illness. We must implement public procedures to punish the sponsors of such evil crimes against Babies and Children, committed by the Irish Catholic Church. The Irish Catholic Church must be held accountable for crimes against humanity for the atrocious experiments they allowed to be carried out on Babies and Children in their Religious run Institutions. Many of the grotesque medical experiments took place at many Mother and Baby Home and Orphanages in Ireland. What Are The Nuremberg Code's Ethical Guidelines. The Nuremberg Code aimed to protect human subjects from enduring the kind of cruelty and exploitation the prisoners endured at concentration camps. The 10 elements of The Nuremberg Code are:
The notorious Irish Catholic Church medical atrocities carried out for profit in most Mother and Baby Home and Orphanages in Ireland, were and are shocking. The Catholic Church in Ireland believed and still believes they can act above the law. The Hippocratic Oath, penned by the father of medicine and held by medical professionals as a sacred tenet to this day, states in part: "I will use treatment to help the sick according to my ability and judgment, but never with a view to injury and wrongdoing...." Both the Irish Catholic Church and the Wellcome Trust experimenters not only violated the oath in the foulest way, even they lie to this very day. Their actions were clear, direct violations of both the Hippocratic Oath as well as the public's belief that doctors and clerics always look after their people’s well-being. The Irish Catholic Church tried to justify these medical atrocities and formulated ethical arguments to justify their illegal activities. The Cult stated that these children of unwed mothers were vermin which were the central arguments placed above any regard for the suffering women and children. Whereas little or nothing has been written about the perpetrators of The Irish Catholic Church medical atrocities, little is known about the Babies and Children either in terms of how many, or who they were, or their experiences of being subjected to experiments. I myself am a survivor of a few illegal drug experiments carried out in Ireland’s largest Mother and Baby Home, St. Patrick’s on the Navan Road, Dublin in the early 1950s. I bear the searing scars both mentally and physically to this very day, as do many other Survivors. Few know it, but severely mentally and physically handicapped babies and children and young people up to 14 years old were used by the medical establishment on various drug experiments in most of the Mother and Baby Homes and Orphanages in Ireland. At least 5,200 babies and children were victims of these heinous drug programmes, which was a precursor to the subsequent murder of the babies and children in these Religious run Institutions. We know that when these babies and children died their battered bodies were sold on to the Irish medical schools, universities for further experiments. Social Darwinism came to play a major role in the ideology of the Irish Catholic Church, all life was not sacred. Survival of the fittest, which was combined with a similarly pseudo religious theory of a pure Irish hierarchy of Church approved "Utopia" like church sanctioned marriage and church sanctioned Catholic babies. Anything else was considered as unfit to live and out of God’s grace and protection, and eliminate the incurably insane. The Irish Catholic Church believed that the scourge of Ireland was the unwed mother and her filth, her impure offspring. The elimination of these "undesirable elements" was implemented under the brutal reign of the Religious Orders of evil Nuns and other pedophile male Clerics that operated the Mother and Baby Homes, Orphanages and Industrial Schools throughout Ireland. The Irish Catholic Church, euthanasia killings may be broadly divided into the following phases: Child euthanasia and disposal from 1922 to 1996. Decentralised, but partly centrally-controlled medication-administered euthanasia or death by malnutrition from September 1922 to 1996. Death by malnutrition of Babies and Children was very common in all the Religious run Institutions in Ireland, in spite of the fact that the Church was paid by the Irish Government. Serious Hereditary and Congenital Illnesses or disabled euthanasia, from 1922 to 1996. According to the Sea Monkey Files the estimates about 15,000 Babies and Children fell victim to the Irish Catholic Church’s war against unwed mothers and their offspring. Euthanasia of disabled children in all the Mother and Baby Homes, Orphanages and Industrial Schools throughout Ireland. The deliberate killing of Babies and Children was considered a mercy killing which was used as a justifiable excuse by the Catholic Church to keep Ireland pure and free from the filth of unwed mothers and their offspring. This was the Irish Catholic Church’s war Against unwed mothers and their children. That true evil lurked and lived under the holy robes of the Catholic Church. The sad truth is that we need only look at recent human history to find real, live, utterly repugnant evil. Worse yet, it is evil perpetrated by Irish Clerics and the Catholic Church on defensible women and children. Something else we know that a few children were submitted to chemical castrations and electric shock treatment, meant to cure them of their suppose homosexual condition, there was nothing wrong with the children, they complained about been raped by the Clerics, so the cure was to castrate them. Do we call it a conflict of moral values? I don’t think so. Yet many vulnerable children were exposed to the illegal drugs experiments with profound pathological side effects, with varying degrees of severity. The financial incentives provided to the Irish Catholic Church have never been discussed. We know that babies and children of Ireland’s Mother and Baby Homes, and Orphanages had suffered and died in clinical trials in which ethical standards had been deliberately violated. The Irish Catholic Church says it was in need of money and offered as much as 1,000 Irish Pounds per child to "volunteer" the orphan children for drug experiments that they knew involved risks of harm and even death. We know that thousands of babies and children that died were again sold to the Irish Medical schools for even more money for the evil Catholic Church. These financial incentives for the Irish Catholic Church and for them to offer orphan children for experimentation demonstrate a debasement of the children’s humanity. Thousands of children died in these illegal medical experiments in Ireland and thousands more suffered harmful side effects for the rest of their lives. We must have accountability, we must also have a true account of the blood monies that the Irish Catholic Church took for the militated bodies of the orphan babies and vulnerable children in their pastoral care. No matter their so called good intentions, the Irish Catholic Church was complicit in both the illegal drug experiments carried out in their Religious run Institutions on babies and children but also complicit in the direct murder of these babies and children as a result of the failed evil drug and vaccine experiments. Owen Felix O’Neill https://www.broadsheet.ie/2019/04/17/the-names-of-the-child-anatomical-subjects-are-not-known/ It seems again that the meddler, the Saint of Tuam has stuck her sycophantic nose into yet another Mother and Baby Home. The Irish newspapers glowingly describe her as a campaigner and historian, I’m afraid not, she is not needed in Bessborough and she certainly isn’t needed in Tuam. The servile Saint of Tuam has done incalculable damage at Tuam’s Mother and Baby Home by hogging all the energy out of the debate about the babies still in the septic tank and still there after six years. Both the Irish Catholic Church and the Irish Government love a useful idiot who they can fawn and manipulate over, they discovered that it only took excessive flattery to win over the subservient Saint of Tuam to do their bidding, The problem is the obsequious Saint of Tuam is not a survivor, she is a brainless busy body, what’s more, Irish Ministers and Catholic Church officials will only speak to her and not the genuine survivors who still have their babies, brother and sisters still in the septic tank. She has blocked all meaningful progress in recovering the babies from the tank in Tuam’s Mother and Baby Home, by working hand in hand with both the Irish Government and the Catholic Church in manipulating events on the ground, with false information and the useless committee known as the Commission of Investigation into Mother and Baby Homes. Genuine local campaigners and historians in Cork City fear her ignorance on survivor issues and her brand of toxic and distorted sainthood will cloud the debate for true accountability for Bessborough’s Home horrors. Another question why would the Commission of Investigation into Mother and Baby Homes even waste their time speaking and asking the Saint of Tuam for her input and useless opinions. As I have stated over the years it is not just about Tuam, it is about all the Mother and Baby Homes, Industrial Schools and Orphanages in Ireland. 1. Tens of thousands of women were murdered, killed in Ireland’s death camps. 2. Tens of thousands of children and babies were murdered, killed in Ireland’s death camps and disposed of into Septic Tanks, Cesspools or Mass-pits. 3. Tens of thousands of women were tortured, brutalised and raped in Ireland’s death camps. 4. Tens of thousands of children were tortured, brutalised and raped in Ireland’s death camps. 5. Tens of thousands of Survivors were to die from suicide over the years, from brutal memories, from poverty, from their brutalities of childhood, their rapes, their drug and alcoholic abuses, from hopelessness, and from the cruelty of life. 6. Tens of thousands of women and children, including babies were disposed of into septic tanks, cesspools, in the grounds of all of Ireland’s death camps. This the Saint of Tuam, a useful idiot does not fully understand, how could she, she is not a survivor. As I stated before Tuam’s Septic Tank is not about her, it's about justice and true accountability for the atrocities inflicted on vulnerable women and children in the care of the Irish Catholic Church. The Cults ideology quickly dispersed throughout Ireland and affected the lives of all Irish people and their families. The Cults ideology penetrated Irish Society at large, by their strangle-hold of all the Irish schools, colleges and universities, there was no accountability. In reality Irish universities and colleges never had autonomy, and operated under strict Catholic Church supervision. Irish teachers and professors never enjoyed any freedom in Ireland, you had to be catholic and loyal to The Cult to even get a job at any academic institution in Ireland. Below is an article I wrote a year ago about Bessborough’s Mother and Baby Home, please read- Bessborough’s 1,000 Missing Babies. The problem isn’t the barrel of bad apples, the roots, the trees themselves are diseased. I must revisit Bessborough Mother and Baby Home, in Cork City, in the county of Cork, Ireland. The Congregation of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary who owned and ran Bessborough do not know where the babies and children are buried. The burial cesspools of well over 1,000 children who died in the care of Bessborough Mother and Baby Home is unknown, despite very extensive inquiries and searches.I have no doubt that Bessborough Mother and Baby Home has hundreds if not thousands of babies secretly dumped into their cesspools and septic tanks on the grounds of the ex Mother and Baby Home, in Cork City. According to the strictly confidential documents I have seen I now know that most of the 1,000 babies missing, and whose cesspool cannot be found, and it really is very simple. First of all many babies died in Bessborough, like all the other Religious run Institutions in Ireland. In fact according to the documents, in Bessborough over a 20 year period, from 1934 - 1954, of relatively reliable death and birth records that I have seen, there were 478 infant deaths registered. When compared against the underestimated number of live births, this equates to a higher death rate in the region of 25%. In other words, one quarter of all babies born in Bessborough in the middle of the 20th. Century died in their first 12 months of life. Put it another way, the Infant Mortality Rate for Ireland (IMR) as a whole was 3.5 per 1,000 life births. In 1950 by comparison this was approximately 50 per 1,000 live births. The IMR is a staggering and sobering statistic which I suggest was used as a cover-up to account for the illegal trafficking of stolen babies out of Bessborough Mother and Baby Home. Anecdotal accounts confirm that hundreds of mothers who gave birth in Bessborough Mother and Baby Home, were told that their babies had died but yet the mothers were never allowed to see them or bury them. So plain and simple, The Congregation of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary, Nuns, stole the new born babies from their mothers at birth, told the mothers that their babies died, moved the mothers to another Mother and Baby Home or Magdalene Laundry in another county of Ireland. When in fact the evil Nuns trafficked and exported the new born babies into North America and elsewhere for profit, and the other crimes of the immoral Nuns was that the Nuns altered and falsified their handwritten documents, with the direct help of corrupt Irish Government Officials. I have seen these official documents, not only did the inept Nuns falsify the official documents, they then told their co-conspirators, the Irish Government that the stolen babies had died at birth, enabling the deceitful Nuns to collect more monies from the Irish Government to bury the so call dead babies, when in fact the trafficked babies were not dead but stolen by the disingenuous Nuns. It would appear that the morally corrupt Nuns collected money at both ends. Something else according to the original documents from, Bessborough Mother and Baby Home, was that the Death Register only lists deaths of babies and children up until January 1953, while Birth Registrations are listed up till August 1955, therefore it would appear that a total of 5.5 years of death registrations is not accounted for by the Nuns. The inference therefore is that the IMR of 25% may indeed be far higher. The findings are as follows—From entries in Bessborough’s Death and Registration of Birth Books- Dated;- December 1930-April 1936 April 1936- January 1942 January 1942- January 1947 January 1947- June 1951 June 1951-August 1955 1. According to the Registration of Birth Books- in Bessborough Mother and Baby Home 2,270 babies were born. 2. According to the Registration of Death Books- in Bessborough Mother and Baby Home. Between February 1934 and January 1953, the deaths of babies were recorded as 482. Now this would correspondingly indicate an IMR of 21 % . However staggering these figures are, they do not reflect a complete picture of IMR as the Death Records only begin in 1934, whereas the Birth Register begins in December 1930, thereby missing 3 complete years. So using the IMR in Bessborough Mother and Baby Home appears at least 212 deaths per 1,000 babies born-that is a fifth of all babies died before the end of their first year. This is the absolute minimum because over 5 years is missing from the Death Records …So 212 by 5 years equals 1,060 missing or dead. This is true and from the official records what we know of. It has implications far beyond our small universe, it is nothing but shocking. Put it another way, this is the equivalent to the IMR in Ireland on the 18th. Century. It is five times the IMR in the local community in the 1950s, which was 5% and 65 times the current IMR. The current IMR in Ireland is 3.8 per 1,000 live births. Causes of baby death by the Nuns at Bessborough’s Mother and Baby Home are also a lie, because we now know that 1,060 babies didn’t die, but illegally sold into America. From the hand-written records, the causes of baby death according to the Nuns were;- -Gastroenteritis, also known as infectious diarrhoea and gastro, is inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. -Congenital syphilis is a chronic infectious disease caused by a spirochete (treponema pallidum) acquired by the foetus in the uterus before birth. -Pneumonia is an infection in one or both lungs. Bacteria, viruses, and fungi cause it. -Bronchitis is an infection of the main airways of the lungs (bronchi), which causes them to become inflamed. There are no medical records from Bessborough’s Mother and Baby Home to substantiate the veracity of these findings, in fact one child’s record cites “Prematurity” as the cause of her death, that’s impossible because the so called child was recorded as been 3 years of age at her last birthday. -Prematurity is a term for the broad category of neonates born at less than 37 weeks' gestation And more, I have seen Letters from Irish Bishops who wrote to the Nuns - requesting that babies be made available to sell-as they, the Bishops needed money. We know from other official records that the Nuns stole the babies to satisfy the Irish Bishops need for monies. There are also documents that some of the children died in transit and secretly buried, also that some of the babies stolen and sold were children from the age of 3 years old to 10 years of age. More shocking is that a few official documents say that Irish babies and children were illegally trafficked by the Nuns, themselves with the support of the Irish Bishops on a HP basis- Hire Lease was an agreement whereby a Adoptee lease goods for a period of time by paying instalments, and can own the goods or child at the end of the agreement. This is extraordinary to see on office documents, as is the use of the words-Trafficking, Forced Adoption, Hire Purchase, and Commodities. In other words, the family in American or elsewhere that wanted an Irish Baby paid the Nuns $1,500 or $2,000 up front in the 1950s, remember at that time this was a huge sum of money, before the new parents took possession of the child, and they the new parents, would agree on a Hire Purchase form or contract to pay additionally $65 or more on monthly instalments, till the child reached the age of 18. A document I have seen also says that the Nuns spoke and wrote about the stolen babies as “Commodities” Another document also says that the mothers in the Mother and Baby Homes never gave their consent in spite of the fact that the Irish Catholic Church claims otherwise, the Nuns at the Mother and Baby Homes couldn’t produce a single document to support that the women gave their consent for their babies to be stolen. The trafficking of Irish Babies was a huge profitable business for the Irish Catholic Church, worth at the time at over 100 million Irish Pounds. Again another official document goes on to say that outside private Doctors, Matrons, Welfare Officers and Irish Government Officials, all conspired and received illegal cash payment for their criminal parts in this vast criminal conspiracy, the Trafficking of stolen Irish Babies around the world. The Nuns further criminal acts, it is reported during the period in question that, once a mother and child had been discharged from Bessborough’s Mother and Baby Home, two dates were routinely recorded. The first date of discharge listed is the date when the woman was geographically discharged from Bessborough, while the second date appears to function for administrative purposes, denoting when the woman was discharged from the institution’s books. These dates are separated in some instances by years. In addition, mothers and babies were often kept long after their babies were born, and after they were otherwise medically fit for discharge. It appears from the official documents that monies were paid both by the natural mothers for the care of their babies, and by their adoptive parents. The latter were requested to pay sums of money for the time, in the region of £50-£60, and this was payable by monthly premium. More than 120,000 babies and children were stolen, sold and treated as Commodities from their mothers in all the Mother and Baby Homes in Ireland, since the foundation of the State. Of these, 60,000 were adopted after the introduction of legal adoption in 1952, and a further number were illegally registered as if born to their adoptive parents (known as "de facto" adoptions). Most unmarried pregnant girls were consigned to religious-run, State-funded Mother and Baby Homes. The official documents say that the babies and children were stolen and the mothers told that their babies died at birth. What please could be more horrendous for any mother, to be told her baby died! To learn later on in her life that the baby was not dead, but was stolen, sold to another, and then to spend the rest of your life looking for that child and that is one of the worst crimes to commit again another, worse than even death.

The same applies to the stealing of a baby, which tears away that child’s identity and leaves a blank slate upon which abuse, punishment, sanctity or monstrosity can be committed upon and etched into both the mother and child’s mind, illegal adoptions, strips away the means by which children see themselves or are viewed by others. Really a stolen life of slavery, a distraught mother, an abused child, endless search, eternal hunt for the truth and the real mother. The Irish Catholic Church authorities incarcerated a large number of children in Industrial Schools and transit Orphanages throughout Ireland. Physicians and medical researchers for the Drug Companies used a number of babies’ children, including their mothers, in the Irish Orphanages for medical experiments that often resulted in the deaths of both the children and their mothers. The Irish Catholic Church authorities deployed helpless adolescents, particularly younger women, as forced labour in the Magdalene Laundries, where many died because of the monstrous work conditions, the Irish Catholic Church authorities held other children under appalling conditions in both Industrial Schools and transit Orphanages. The term "euthanasia" means literally "good death" It usually refers to the inducement of a painless death, many of the Down Syndrome and other chronically and terminally ill children and babies who would otherwise suffer in the many Convents and Mother and Baby Homes, were put to death, an euthanasia program which was indirectly sanctioned by The Irish Catholic Church authorities, this clandestine murder program was carried out in the many Mother and Baby Homes and Convents throughout Ireland, through illegal medical experiments. This "euthanasia" program targeted, for systematic killing, mentally and physically disabled babies and healthy children living in institutional settings throughout Ireland, run by the Irish Catholic Church. What sort of religion that would allow orphan children in their orphanages to be illegally experimented on for money and then the same drug company and the Irish Catholic Church watches the vulnerable children die. The Nuns that ran the orphanages then sold the children’s tiny battered bodies back to the same drug company that exterminated the orphan children in the first place. The Irish Catholic Church didn't alleviate the suffering among the women and children in its care, instead the Irish Catholic Church’s indifference, and open complicity in the rape torture and extermination of children and women in its pastoral care. Both St Philomena's Home in Stillorgan in Dublin, and St. Patrick’s, Mother and Baby Home on the Navan Road, Dublin were used as experimental centres by the drug companies in Ireland to test out new and upcoming commercial medical drugs, with the approval of the Catholic Church and The Irish Government. These were the Vaccine Trials that were carried out secretly, on babies, children in institutional settings in Ireland during the 1940s, 50s, 60s, and 70s. According to a British Medical Journal, the Burroughs Wellcome Company medical laboratory technicians who prepared and gave the vaccine for diphtheria and other untried medical drugs to the orphan children had a complete lack of experience and training of its uses with human beings, especially babies and children. The initial trials were carried out on hundreds of babies and children from the many Mother and Baby Homes and Orphanages throughout Ireland, from the 1920a through the early 1970s. In the case of diphtheria vaccine drug from the original batches the alum-toxoid vaccine level, at that time, the diphtheria vaccine dosage which comprised of over 9 per cent aluminium, caused severe reaction like fatal abscesses and hard lumps at the injection site., like intense pain, swelling and redness, causing fatal skin lesions, which resulted in skin lesions and the drugs rash that the nuns knew nothing about, started to appear on the babies and children in their care. The fatal skin lesions were at the time different cancers, life-threatening complications which caused toxic shock syndrome, which was a potentially fatal illness caused by a bacterial toxin, the causative bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, toxic epidermal necrolysis, pemphigus vulgaris, milder side effects, included raving fever, shivers, constant fatigue, severe headache, intense vomiting, multiple muscle spasms and inflamed joints. The severity of the many of the side-effects which were covered up by both the drug company and the Nuns at the time resulted in the death of the babies and children in the pastoral care of the Nuns. These Vaccine Experiments carried out on thousands of defenceless Babies, Children and new mothers in the many Mother and Baby Homes and Children’s Orphanages throughout Ireland. After all, there was a ready group of helpless children who had no Parents or people to complain to. Some of these experiments took place in St. Patrick’s Mother and Baby Home, Dublin, where I was born and St Philomena's Home in Stillorgan in Dublin, on children as young as six months old. I often ask, have we forgotten God? The vaccines used were all manufactured by the same company, Burroughs Wellcome, and then if and when many of the Babies and Children died, the good Nuns sold their bodies to the Department of Medical Microbiology, University College Dublin and Trinity College, Medical Centre and even to the Drug Companies. The asking price was £1,000 for a dead body of a Baby or child, a huge sum of money at the time. The Catholic Church in Ireland made hundreds of thousands of pounds in an exclusive deal with the drug Companies for access to the Babies and Children in the orphanages and Mother and Baby Home in Ireland. Polio is an infectious disease caused by a virus that lives in the throat and intestinal tract. Polio is actually spread via faces or oral route. It is most often spread through person-to-person contact with the stool of an infected person and may also be spread through oral, nasal secretions. Polio used to be very common in Ireland and caused severe illness in thousands of children before the introduction of polio vaccine in 1957. Sanitation is preeminent in containing polio outbreaks. Live poliovirus vaccine caused outbreaks of Polio, in The Mother and Baby Homes, due to the live Poliovirus in the vaccine. Injections of live Polio Vaccine increased the risk of polio in children. The Polio Vaccine was injected, live, into the institutionalised children, in many Mother and Baby Homes, in Ireland. The Drug Companies introduced the Polio Vaccine experiments, into Mother and Baby Homes, in the late 1940’s. The scandalous, experimental drug unit from the Wellcome Trust took great pride in naming, the drug experiments the 'Orphan Bastards' and didn't hold back with any drug or technique, on the vulnerable orphan children, multiple untried medical drugs were used in these experiments by this elite unit from the Wellcome Trust. This was not the first time for drug experiments on Orphan Children, from the Wellcome Trust. The Wellcome Trust also has a long history in staunch Catholic South America countries, parts of Asia and poorer Catholic countries throughout Africa, up to 2006. At first, the Nuns in Mother and Baby Homes were emboldened to neglect the children and their mothers in their care, thus, the children and their mothers die of starvation and curable diseases, because the Nuns wouldn't buy medicines or provide proper food. Later, groups of drug company medics came with their cheque book visiting the Mother and Baby Homes and decided which child would die, and which woman. The Nuns at the Mother and Baby Homes viewed the life of the unwed women and their children as worthless in the eyes of God, “life unworthy of life” the Nuns also viewed the children and unwed mothers as a financial burden on the Irish state and particularly the Irish Catholic Church. In reality, the Mother and Baby Homes were children's killing wards where, specially recruited medical staff from the drug companies exterminated the new babies, their mothers by either a lethal experimental overdose of medication or by induced starvation. The Mother and Baby Homes were willing to participate and help in the illegal drug experiments on both healthy and stricken orphan children without proper safeguards or consent, consent which wasn’t asked for or needed as the Nuns through the Irish Catholic Church secretly approved the drug experiments for cash payments. The Orphan Children in The Mother and Baby Homes were used as “guinea pigs” at most Catholic run orphanages. Consent and safeguards were not required or called for, as the drug experiments were on Orphan Children, approved by the powerful Irish Catholic Church with sections of the cowardly Irish Government Officials. All the Mother and Baby Homes records were kept secret and later destroyed on instructions, after a secret meeting of the Irish Catholic Bishops of Ireland in 2005 in Dublin, to protect the reputation of the then battered Irish Catholic Church. Let there be no mistake, many of these vulnerable Orphan Children died as a direct result of these Illegal Drug Experiments in the many Mother and Baby Homes throughout Ireland. Surreptitious inoculation was used on these vulnerable Orphan Children. Once the Orphan Child was infected, by the drug experiments the child was given diphtheria or penicillin or other untried medical drugs to see if it the drug worked, the illegal medical drug was given in different dosage to the child from strong too weak to see the desire results and watch the vulnerable orphan children struggle to live or die. In some cases, no drug was given, as the child would then struggle with the bad drug given to the child, in the first place, as the Drug Unit watched dispassionately at the struggling child, recording the child’s every dying moment. Over 2,500 Orphan Children were exterminated this way. Vulnerable Orphan Children have often been the unwilling objects of these evil experiments. From the 1940s to 1970s, The Wellcome Trust, later known as GlaxoSmithKline, conducted these experiments on the vulnerable Orphan Children with the approval of the Irish Catholic Church. The Orphan Children were injected with a variety of untested medical drugs, long after the experiments ended, vulnerable Orphan Children that survived, continued to suffer from the side effects of the illegal drug experiments. The medical doctors who done the experiments were apparently very enthusiastic about the experiments on the vulnerable Orphan Children, it was written by one of the lead doctors, at the time, and he was quoted as saying, “Fantastic results, for this invaluable research, we have to thank the Irish Catholic Church for the unfettered use of the Orphan Bastards. The known side effects on the Children that survived were the Orphan Children had volcanic eruptions of skin inflammation, rashes and angry scars, cancers, stunt growth, severe acne outbreaks, cancerous cysts, pustular psoriasis, on the face, neck armpits and around the chest area and the back, and groin areas, with itching and violent irritations of the skin. Many died a few years after the illegal drug experiments due to unidentified malignant tumours. Carcinoma cancers that grow out of control, these cancerous tumours invade nearby tissues and spread to other parts of the body as a direct result of the illegal drug experiments on them as Orphan Children. As a direct result of the illegal drug experiments carried out in the Mother and Baby Homes, many of the surviving Orphan Children’s cells were damaged and altered and the cells began to grow uncontrollably, becoming malignant. Of course, these Orphan Children later as adults had no medical records for future doctors to look at and assist them in their treatment, their medical records from the Catholic Orphanages were sealed and later, all their medical histories from the Mother and Baby Homes were destroyed, on the direct orders of the Irish Catholic Church. Their future doctors didn’t know what they were dealing with and hence the survivors went to their lonely graves never knowing what really happened to them as Orphan Children in the Mother and Baby Homes. I was one of the experimental babies and I was given live Polio Vaccine in 1955; I have a medical document in my name to support this. The Medical Documents read Polio Vaccine; - 1st. Injection 18th. June 1955 and 2nd. Injection 17th. July 1955, I would have been 13th. months old at the time, I was born on the 27th. May. 1954, so not really 13th. months, further the document reads; - Positive Post Vaccine Test. I was in the early group of babies that got vaccinated in St. Patrick’s Mother and Baby Home Dublin. Medical miracles are complicated, but Catholic Church Miracles are never complicated, Catholic Church miracles are downright fraud, but if the miracles involve money, and if it is a great miracle, the Catholic Church will hijack that miracle to make money. There will be no testing or verification by scientists, only the Catholic Church can do that itself. It is a poor Roman Catholic Church in Europe that does not boast several relics of Saints and wooden crosses. Although the scientific method of hypothesis formulation, testing, and verification is straightforward, even the most spectacular achievements involve complicated issues and tough choices. The doctors and scientists who raced toward effective polio vaccines tested their handy work on institutionalised Orphan Children prior to 1955, in the orphanages of Ireland, when the Irish Government announced that polio vaccines were to come to Ireland in 1958, In the Irish Republic. Many Mother and Baby Homes in Ireland had already participated with the Drug Companies, in secret for years before the Irish Government’s announcement, in 1958. The Nuns and the Irish Catholic Church already had their thirty pieces of silver and with no remorse, gladly accepted the cash at the expense of the extermination of defenceless Orphan Children in its care. One of the first batches of polio vaccines tested wholesale was in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in America, on hundreds of children. Over 200 of the children died within a few weeks, the dosage was mixed wrong with too much aluminium. The doctors remixed the next batch of polio vaccines and again tested the new batch on orphans in the Mother and Baby Homes in Ireland. As a result, more children died in the Mother and Baby Homes in Ireland, and many were left crippled for life, a few of the children struggled for a few more years and died. In addition, over 100,000 Rhesus monkeys died as well as the institutionalised children. Many healthy children given the polio vaccines were disabled for life. They were a visible, painful reminder to society of the enormous toll this disease took on young lives. The doctors and scientists believed they were serving the greater good of society and of science. The Catholic Church believed they were serving the great good and wealth of The Catholic Church. The Drug Company, The Wellcome Trust, also carried out Another Drug Company experiment that went wrong in many Mother and Baby Homes in Ireland. The Vaccine in question was for the Vaccine for Diphtheria, like polio Vaccines, the so called Wellcome Doctors, had a “complete lack of experience of its use within human beings, Wellcome lab workers who prepared the formula, got the formula wrong, and as a result, hundreds of Orphan Children died. Most of the orphan babies and children were exposed to toxic high levels of aluminium salts posing very significant health risks including death to the babies and children. Many of the same high toxic vaccines were also given to pregnant women, which in addition to these animal cells and associated genetic material also had high levels of aluminium salt in them. A few foetuses expelled from the mother's body while other babies died after receiving the experimental vaccines or untried combinations of vaccines numbering in the single digits. In some cases, a few babies born, surveyed for six or seven months and then died in their sleep, after receiving different experimental vaccines. Babies and premature babies had to deal with this overloading of their kidney functions, which failed, high level aluminium salts promote cellular death, that’s a fact. We also know of a direct link between high levels of aluminium salts and Alzheimer's disease later in life. Aluminium is able to travel into places in your body where it can do significant harm, and your brain is one of the organs that’s most sensitive to it, adverse effects of aluminium skews your immune system. Multiple vaccines, or several shots of vaccines administered all at once, by the drug companies were responsible also for a large percentage of serious adverse vaccine reactions in the Orphan Children that were experimented on, including myself, in the Mother and Baby Homes. As is now well known in the scientific world today, there are no valid scientific studies to support the safety of giving several vaccines all at the same time to children. The vaccines that were administered to Orphan Children, simultaneously for the convenience of both the drug companies and the Mother and Baby Homes was never about safety. Some of the children in the Mother and Baby Homes had partial seizures like staring, pupils not contracting when a flashlight was shone by the doctors into their eyes, non-responsive; some children fell asleep with fingers of both their hands twitching rhythmically. I, myself was hospitalised one year after my birth, because of my violent reaction to some experimental drugs pumped into my tiny body, and rushed to another emergency hospital in Dublin, because of the serious adverse reaction to the vaccine I was injected with by the drug company. I recovered. I had a desire to survive, but I couldn't walk till I was four. Other Orphan Children had high fever, vomiting, and diarrhoea, a few Orphan Children died, and their battered and bruised bodies sold back to the drug company or sold to medical Colleges in Dublin, by the heartless Nuns for profit. Some of the Orphan Children had from three to six diseases injected together directly into their tiny bodies with one multiple shot, while the drug company doctor looked on, to see what would happen. The multiple shots were measles, mumps, rubella, diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus, polio, and because of the drug experiments some of the children developed asthma, celiac disease, and autism and other complications. A few of the children had chronic vomiting and diarrhoea that were attributable directly to his celiac disease vomiting every day, some of the orphan children couldn’t speak, because they lost the temporary use of their voices. Other orphan children had red eyes at the time of their immunisations, many were very ill for days or weeks afterwards. A few of the Orphan Children also had serious reaction to their very first set of drug shots. The Drug Company Doctors observed this correlation, and then gave a second set of experimental drug shots, to the hapless children and watched the poor wretched children’s new reactions again. The Drug Company Doctors clinically took reams of notes as they observed the distressed and floundering Orphan Children, the Nuns of the Mother and Baby Homes were too busy eating free cakes and drinking drug company tea to ask any questions and really didn’t care, after all, all the drug company staff were dressed as doctors and nurses. Again, the Drug Company Doctors watched life-threatening reactions by the now floundering Orphan Children to his second set of experimental drug shots and proceeded to administer again to the same now very distraught children, a third set of multiple drug shots. In reality the Mother and Baby Homes relinquish all responsibility for their baby’s welfare. The Drug company Doctors just observed as some children struggled to breath, and never intervened as children as young as four died in their own vomit and tears. The Drug Company Doctors just took notes, The Nuns prayed as they sold the dead children to The Drug Company and accept a thousand Irish pounds for each child that died. The dead children when then stuffed into a body bag and left as waste to be picked up at the end of the day. Nobody gave a fuck, who was to know, the children’s mother was herself working probably in the Laundry room, unaware her son died for a drug experiment, if the mother asked the Nuns about her boy, the mother was told that the son was sent to another school. If the Mother persisted in asking questions about her son, she would be beaten and told to mine her own business. The Nuns word was absolute. The Drug Company Doctors know best, said a satisfied Mother Superior of St. Patrick’s Mother and Baby Home, as the Drug Companies were paying cash to the happy Nuns. New altar linen and paint could now be brought for the Convent Chapel and fresh cut flowers for the new plaster statues of both the Infant Jesus and the Blessed Virgin Mary. With the Drug Companies paying for the drug experiments in cash, and any, and all the physical rights to all of the dead babies’ bodies, thereafter, that way with cold hard cash, for both the drug experiments and cold dead babies, there were no need for official receipts or documents to come back and haunt both The Mother and Baby Homes and the Philanthropy of one of the great Drug Companies in the world, The Wellcome Trust. The initial trials were carried out on thousands of defenceless Orphan Children of Mother and Baby Home in Ireland, some of the original batches of the alum-toxoid vaccine, which comprised 9 per cent aluminium, caused severe reactions like fatal abscesses and hard lumps at the injection site. Subsequently many of the institutionalised children had severe side-effects, including the immediate death of many of the Orphan Children, in many of The Mother and Baby Homes in Ireland, by the Drug Company, The Wellcome Trust. I have another medical document, Immunisation against diphtheria; - Date of 1st. Injection 26th. October 1954, 2nd. Injection 26th. January 1955, 3rd. injection 13th. September 1955. Result; - Negative. It is a little-known fact, that Doctors and Scientists of the Drug Company, The Wellcome Trust, secretly vaccinated more than 5,000 or more children in suspected illegal medical drug trials, in many of The Mother and Baby Homes in Ireland. Old medical records so far show that thousands of children and babies in Mother and Baby Homes throughout Ireland were given a one-shot diphtheria vaccine from international drugs giant Burroughs Wellcome. The downside of these secret vaccinations was that some of the vaccines given to the orphans in the Mother and Baby Homes and Orphanages had a deadly glitch in the 1950s It was discovered by medical researchers by pure accident who discovered that the polio vaccine distributed to the Mother and Baby Homes and Orphanages in Ireland in the 1950s and 1960s was infected with another virus called "Simian Virus 40." SV-40 which was a monkey virus that is not normally found in humans. Unknown at the time, it was present in hundreds of rhesus monkeys that were used to grow and harvest the polio vaccine. This "Simian Virus 40.” was injected into tens of thousands of babies at the time this virus is causing brain and lung cancers to this very day. Now, many years later. SV-40 has appeared in over 70% of all new cancer patients in Ireland, born during the 1950s and the 1960s and not just children from the Orphanages, but children born within Irish families nation-wide who also received this contaminated vaccine from the late 1950s to the era of the 1960s. Isolated fragments of this strain of SV-40 virus are present in human bones of many different cancers now in their late 50s and 60s. More frightening researchers have determined that SV-40 virus can be transmitted sexually and through blood transfusions. Even more shocking, SV-40 has appeared in over 50% of all new cancer patients in Ireland, patients even too young to have received the contaminated vaccine being administered in the 50s and 60s There is no evidence that consent was ever sought, nor any records of how many children died or suffered debilitating side effects as a result. I can only go on my own medical records. Most of the secret drug experiments on orphans were carried out in the Mother and Baby Homes throughout Ireland, long before the vaccines were ever made available for commercial use in the United Kingdom. More frightening researchers have determined that SV-40 virus can be transmitted sexually and through blood transfusions. Even more shocking, SV-40 has appeared in over 50% of all new cancer patients in Ireland, patients even too young to have received the contaminated vaccine being administered in the 50s and 60s. By the way HIV is a monkey hybrid virus also which was man made the same way as the Polio Virus, through the Rhesus monkey, viral fragments combine easily with other viruses to produce these hybrids called “chimeras. These drug experiments were published in the most prestigious medical journals around the English-speaking world, suggesting that this type of human experimentation on institutionalised children in the Mother and Baby Homes in Ireland were largely accepted by medical practitioners and facilitated by Irish Catholic Authorities in charge of the Mother and Baby Homes, in Ireland. Another fact that no record of these drug experiments can be found in the files relating to the Department of Local Government and Public Health, in Ireland, or The Wellcome Trust Archives in London, or the Catholic Church Archives, In Ireland. In actual fact, almost all of the files of the secret drug experiments on the institutionalised children and orphans in the Mother and Baby Homes, in Ireland, were conveniently destroyed, particularly by the Irish Catholic Church, in Ireland, which suggests that vaccine drug experiments, would have been very much acceptable to the Irish Government, in name at the time. The only people or Institutions who directly gained, financially were, the English Drug Company, The Wellcome Trust and The Irish Catholic Church, through the Mother and Baby Homes. What a fine sound business for the Nuns and a new source of blood money for the Holy Mother Church. Whatever happened to the Nuremberg Code after the Second World War The principles underlying scientific research, particularly that of consent. “Numerous international codes defined ethical standards for human experimentation, most notably the Nuremberg Code, the issue did not command any attention”. And then what about Catholic Ethos, O’ yes! it didn’t seem to apply to Whores or their spawns. A matter of particular interest to these trials is whether it was appropriate to use as subjects’ babies and children who were in institutional settings, particularly orphan children, so no need for consent. The real consent was bought with blood money. The holy Nuns, who ran the Mother and Baby Homes, could easily be bought with thirty pieces of silver. The matter was never discussed in the available protocols at the time or for that matter any other time. In a little-known secret Department of Health memorandum written in 1962 the Irish Government turned a blind eye, while the real Rulers in Ireland, Archbishop McQuaid and the clerics, struck their secret deals with the Drug Companies, General Medical Council and the other Irish Government. Hapless children were forced into participating, enticed with chocolate sweets some of the sweets were laced with drugs and given to the children. The children did not willingly volunteer, and no consent was ever sort or given for the procedures, there were nobody to ask, except the Nuns, and the Holy Nuns were not a problem. Instructions came from the Bishops and higher Church figures. So typically, the experiments resulted in death, trauma, disfigurement or permanent disability. Many Children were very sick with unusual high temperatures, and violent diarrhoea and vomit. At St. Patrick’s Mother and Baby Home, and other Orphanages, under the direction of the Holy Nuns, selected Babies and Children who were subjected to various hazardous experiments that were designed to help Burroughs Wellcome, the drug company. A few of the Babies and Children died, unable to cope with the experiments. Medical staff under the direct supervision of Burroughs Wellcome Irish staff at the Orphanages, tested immunisation compounds and serums for the prevention and treatment of contagious diseases, including typhus, tuberculosis, typhoid fever, and infectious hepatitis. Not just the Babies or Children were the experiments tried on. Sterilisation experiments were secretly used on selected Women in the wards of St. Patrick’s Mother and Baby Homes and other Mother and Baby Homes around Ireland. All the experiments were carried out, without the consent or acknowledgement of the women involved. Some of the women suffered weak-mindedness, schizophrenia, alcohol abuse, insanity, deafness, and physical deformities. Over a few years many of the selected women had been sterilised. The purpose of these experiments was to develop a method of sterilisation, which would be suitable for sterilising the women with a minimum of time and effort. These experiments were conducted by means of X-rays, and various untested drugs. Thousands of victims were sterilised. Aside from its experimentation, the intravenous injections of drugs, speculated in secret hushed tones, to contain iodine and silver nitrate, proved to be very successful, but had unwanted side effects such as vaginal bleeding, severe abdominal pain, and cervical cancer. Therefore, radiation treatment became the favoured choice of sterilisation. Specific amounts of exposure to radiation destroyed a person’s ability to produce ova or sperm. The radiation was administered through deception. Women were brought into a room and asked questions about their health and families, which took a few minutes. In this time, the radiation treatment was administered and, unknown to the women, they were rendered completely sterile. Many suffered severe side effects, such as dizzy spells, vomiting and diarrhoea. Some of the women died later as a result of the experiments conducted by the Burroughs Wellcome, of England. When a few of the women had died, tests were completed on their bodies to study the effects post-mortem. Those who survived were often left mutilated, suffering permanent disability, weakened bodies, and mental distress. The issue of informed consent had previously been controversial in Irish Medical Circles, but the power and grip of the Catholic Church was too strong for many doctors and researchers to resist. Academics who depended on their jobs, through the Catholic Church, kept their mouth closed. The Catholic Church controlled all Professorships and research jobs within the educational institutions of Ireland. The vast majority of the academic community supported the Church’s position completely. After all, these women were whores and prostitutes, and streetwalkers, who were infecting the streets of holy Ireland with untold diseases. The major excuse was the Women were prostitutes with syphilis, so their consent wasn’t needed. The women were not competent for this reason, nor consulted. In another secret fact, unknown, after the Second World War, many Nazis escaped from a war ravished Europe and were helped by sympathisers in the Catholic Church, directed from the Vatican in Rome by The Red Cross and the Vatican officials, both helped thousands of Nazi war criminals and collaborators to escape after the second world war. Many of these fleeing Nazis were given safe passage through natural Catholic Ireland, and later the Nazis were sent on their way to new identities and life in other Catholic Countries in Latin America. A few Nazis medical staff and doctors made this route into Ireland a few stayed and made Ireland their home, a small few ended up working for the Drug Companies and researchers for Burroughs Wellcome. I remember the Clinical Trials. My earliest memory was standing with a group of boys in a long line half naked with only my underpants on, as had all the other children in the line before and after me. There were what appeared to be four or five men and women in long white coats taking samples of blood and injecting children with a cocktail of colour liquid and examining the boys. Also, for days afterwards an unwrapped chocolate sweet was placed on the desk of a few of the children in my class, including myself. I picked up the chocolate sweet, looked at it and eat it, but it tasted bitter, with a funny taste of liquid to its centre, I immediately spate the chocolate out and complained to Sister Kevin that my chocolate sweet tasted funny, bitter, she came by my desk, picked the chocolate sweet up of the floor where I spate it out and gave me another one, “This one will be better, Patrick” I took the chocolate sweet of Sister Kevin with suspicion and put it into my hungry mouth, this time I swallowed the chocolate sweet, without biting and Sister Kevin seemed pleased, she returned to a large folio and made a few notes, looking all the time at me. I held the bitter chocolate, and when she wasn’t looking, I removed it and put it in my short trousers pocket to dispose of it when I next went to the toilet. A few hours later a Nurse came into our class and picked out a few of the boys, including me, and examined us in another room. For the next few weeks this continued, the chocolate sweet, the bitterness taste, but I took the chocolate sweet in, in any way, The Nurse examined us and more notes and probes. Life got on as normal, which is to say the routine of life growing up in an orphanage. The births were so risky, at all the 200, Mother and Baby Homes, that expectant mothers were encouraged to confess their sins before they went into labour. A priest was always on standby, to both hear confessions and baptise the baby immediately, or before the baby or mother died, or if the baby was already dead in the mother’s womb, then the priest would throw only holy water on the thing, and the dead mother, mutter a few worthless prayers, the priest would return quickly to his whiskey. Many of the new mothers were teenagers, when the mother went into labour, Untrained Farmer Nuns, would pull the baby’s head with such force, that in many cases, caused the real risk of delivering a premature baby, or that the mother bled to death, with shock. With this induce labour, the risk of secondary infertility due to the increase of the risk of damage to the mother’s uterus caused by uterine rupture. Most labour was painful and prolonged, unnecessary in many cases. Either the contractions were too long, and too strong and too close together, causing the baby to have difficulty in breathing. The untrained Nuns would not have known this, and really didn’t care. Once the baby was pulled out, like an animal on a farm, then the priest was called to do his job to baptise the baby or mother, for hell, the baby and mother were certainly weren’t going to heaven, why did the baby reek of mortal sins. No men were allowed, except a priest, who was not considered a man, but gods anointed. If the labour was difficult, the mother’s hair would be shaved or loosened, and all hairpins and hair clips removed. Caesarean births were never performed, not even as a last resort. As the time of birth drew near, the mother would have to wait, there could be a few other births before her, and no medicines. The chosen untrained nun would tie the umbilical cord and tie it at four fingers’ length. The delivery farm nun would hand over the new-born baby, if the baby survived, over to an assistant or assistants normally older women, who worked with the nuns, to bathe the child, then the infant would be wrapped in torn sheets, which would be changed every few days. The assistant women then had the job of cleaning up the afterbirth, disposing of any dead babies into a sluice toilet and flushing, but only after the blessing and departure of the priest. The Irish Catholic Church itself did not object to the miscarried foetus being flushed down the sluice, the Nuns who ran the Mother and Baby Homes didn’t want to know, they the nuns walked away, after all it was a problem of the older women to dispose of the unwanted foetus and not the holy nuns. The other major problems were, fatal foetal abnormality, which the nuns didn’t understand, and didn’t care about, another was induced miscarriage, causing menstrual regulation, and regulation of a delayed, suspended menstruation infection called, sepsis, massive haemorrhage was very common, and injury to the internal organs, such as puncturing or tearing of the uterus, was all the rage. After all, without medical drugs, or forceps, here the ignorant, untrained medical practitioners called Nuns, willingly and readily performed abortions on behalf of the Holy Mother Church. Because of these untrained Nuns, a pandemic of infectious diseases, spread through the wards of the Mother and Baby Homes. Spreading endemic diseases that a few simple known drugs and basis hygiene at the time could have fixed. So, the Good Nuns resorted to the only thing that could and would work, in their eyes was, Prayer. While Smallpox, Measles, Tuberculosis and basic Flu, and Whooping Cough, ravished the Women and Children. The Holy Nuns realised that their Prayers wouldn’t work, according to the Holy Nuns, it couldn’t work because the whores had committed a mortal sin, and to the Good Nuns this was unforgivable in the eyes of God. The whores had to be punished and made to suffer. The Women that survived the wards, then had problems like loss of productivity and psychological damage, plus the rest of their lives, working to death, in Church Laundries and their children thrown into Industrial Schools to be raped, brutalised and even murdered, many children were never to know their Mothers, brothers, sisters or any other family member. The Irish Catholic Church with the help of Drug Company Doctors conducted illegal medical experiments of Orphan Babies and Children which violated the trust placed in them. The truth is The Irish Catholic Church escaped their crimes, that took place in all their Religious run Institutions in Ireland, the crimes on children and their mothers was worse than anything done in the Nazi Death Camps. As Nelson Mandela said——“The true character of a society is revealed in how it treats its children.” Sadly, here in Ireland we FAILED. Owen Felix O'Neill The Price of Death In 2011, it was revealed that another 400 dead babies, from St Patrick’s, Mother and Baby Home in Dublin, in which the Nuns who ran the Mother and Baby Home, The Daughters of Charity of St. Vincent de Paul, claim they didn’t know anything about, or were not sure what happened, but sold in a private sale the 400 dead baby bodies anyway, for £1,000Irish punts a piece, at the time, to St Kevin’s Hospital. The 400 dead babies were sold to the nearby Hospital, St Kevin’s which was the largest university teaching hospital in Dublin at the time, now called St. James's Hospital. The 400 dead babies from St. Patrick’s, Mother and Baby Home in Dublin, in reality the 400 babies were subjected to vaccine trials by established international medical companies, and this was what caused their deaths. The vaccine trials in Ireland were headed up by some of the country’s most eminent medical professionals. This is why the 400 baby bodies were sold to St. Kevin’s Hospital, Dublin. The Anatomical Committee of Irish Medical Schools said- that “today such practices would be unacceptable” and a joint statement from the Departments of Health and Children said they “deeply regretted” these “outdated practices”. The medical drug trial itself was published in the ‘British Medical Journal’ in 1962. The final paragraph of it reads: The hospital St Kevin’s was run by another group of Religious Nuns were the 400 dead babies were sold and used in dissections for medical students and medical universities of Ireland without the consent of their mothers, all this was kept secret or conveniently forgotten and any and all documentation was destroyed by the Holy Nuns. The Daughters of Charity of St. Vincent de Paul. The Nuns got away with lying about the sale for over 40 years, never acknowledging the evil deed of selling the 400 dead babies for profit. Even when the story came out in 2011, all they said was it was another era, and we have no documentation in our archives. In the year of 1942 alone, 57 babies were sent to UCD, 34 more to the Royal College of Surgeons and another 27 to Trinity College Dublin, 35 were sent to UCG, according to Official Irish Inspectors, but again many medical experts think that official figures given are far to low. The same Nuns, The Daughters of Charity of St. Vincent de Paul refused to keep to many records on their dead babies, but altered, or more conveniently disappeared, evidence and documentation, but a handsome profit was to be made by the greedy Nuns, who couldn’t feed the babies but instead sold the murdered and undernourished babies. Again I must quote Wittgenstein- “What we do not speak about we pass- over in silence”. Owen Felix O'Neill https://www.pressreader.com/ireland/irish-examiner/20170626/281616715375755 Births and Euthanasia/ Experiments The births were so risky at the 200 Mother and Baby Homes, that expectant mothers were encouraged to confess their sins before they went into labour. A priest was always on standby, to both hear confessions and baptise the baby immediately in case the baby or mother died. If the baby were already dead in the mother’s womb, then the priest would only throw holy water on the thing (and perhaps on the dead mother too), mutter a few worthless prayers, then quickly return to his whiskey. Many of the new mothers were teenagers. When the mother went into labour, untrained farm-raised nuns would pull on the baby’s head with such force that in many cases it caused the real risk of delivering a premature baby - or the mother bled to death or died with shock. With this brutal induced labour, the risk of future infertility increased due to uterine rupture. Most labour was painful and prolonged, unnecessarily so in many cases. Contractions might be too strong and too fast, causing the baby to have difficulty in breathing. The untrained nuns would not have known how to deal with this, and really didn’t care. Once the baby was pulled out, like an animal on a farm, then the priest was called to do his job of baptism although the baby and mother certainly weren’t going to heaven – why, even the baby reeked of mortal sin. No men were allowed to be present, except for priests, but then they were not considered to be men but rather gods anointed. If the labour was difficult, the mother’s hair would be shaved or loosened and all hairpins and hair-clips removed. Caesarean births were never performed, not even as a last resort. As the time of birth drew near, the mother would have to wait; there could be a few other births happening - and no medicines. The untrained nun chosen to act as midwife would tie the umbilical cord at four fingers’ length. The delivery nun would hand over the new-born baby to an assistant, normally an older woman who worked with the nuns, to bathe then wrap the infant in torn sheets, which would be changed every few days. The assistant women had the job of cleaning up the afterbirth and flushing any dead babies into a sluice, but only after the blessing and departure of the priest. The Irish Catholic Church itself did not object to the miscarried foetus being flushed down the sluice. The nuns who ran the Mother and Baby Homes didn’t want to know; it was the assistants who performed the disposal of the unwanted foetus and not the holy nuns. Other major problems which the nuns didn’t understand or care about were: fatal foetal abnormality; induced miscarriage causing menstrual disruption; infection (sepsis); massive haemorrhaging (very common) and injury to the internal organs such as puncturing or tearing of the uterus. Without drugs or forceps, the ignorant nuns, untrained as medical practitioners, willingly and readily performed abortions on behalf of the Holy Mother Church. Because of these careless, untrained nuns, a pandemic of infectious diseases spread through the wards of the Mother and Baby Homes. A few known drugs and basic hygiene could have prevented this. Smallpox, measles, tuberculosis, flu and whooping cough, ravished the women and babies over the decades that the Mother and Baby Homes operated. So the good nuns resorted to the only thing that, in their eyes, could and would work - prayer. When the holy nuns realised that their prayers weren’t working, it could only be because the women were whores who had committed a mortal sin, which was unforgivable in the eyes of God. The whores had to be punished and made to suffer. The women that survived the wards consequently had problems like loss of fertility and psychological damage, plus for the rest of their lives, many were worked to death in the Church-run Magdalene Laundries. Their children, sinners too, were never to know their mothers, brothers, sisters, or any other family members and were thrown into Industrial Schools to survive as best they could in a regime of torture and deprivation. Sterilisation experiments were secretly carried out on thousands of selected women in the wards of Mother and Baby Homes around Ireland. All the experiments were performed without the consent or acknowledgement of the women involved. As a result, many suffered weak-mindedness, schizophrenia, alcohol abuse, insanity, deafness, and physical deformities. The purpose of these experiments was to develop a method that would be suitable for sterilising with a minimum of time and effort. The experiments were conducted by means of X-rays and various untested drugs. The intravenous injections of drugs, speculated in secret hushed tones to contain iodine and silver nitrate, proved to be very successful, but had unwanted side effects such as vaginal bleeding, severe abdominal pain, and cervical cancer. Radiation therefore became the favoured treatment for sterilisation because specific amounts of exposure to radiation destroy a person’s ability to produce ova or sperm. The radiation was administered through deception. Women were brought into a room and asked questions for a few minutes about their health and families. During this time, the radiation treatment was being clandestinely administered and, unknown to the women, they were being rendered completely sterile. Many suffered severe side effects, such as dizzy spells, vomiting and diarrhoea. Some of the women later died as a result of the experiments and the sterilisation procedure conducted by Wellcome Trust. When women died, tests were completed on their bodies to study the effects post mortem. Those who survived were often left mutilated, suffering permanent disability, weakened bodies, and mental distress. The issue of informed consent had previously been controversial in Irish Medical Circles, but the power and grip of the Catholic Church was too strong for many doctors and researchers to resist. Academics who depended on their jobs through the patronage of the Catholic Church, kept their mouths shut; the Catholic Church controlled all professorships and research posts within the educational institutions of Ireland. Even without the possibility of losing their positions, the vast majority of the academic community supported the Church’s position completely. After all these women were prostitutes who were infecting the streets of holy Ireland with untold diseases. Not only were the women whores, the major excuse was that they had syphilis and were therefore not competent, so there was no need for consultation or consent. Another illegal, but nevertheless Church and State sanctioned, procedure carried out in the institutions for babies and children was euthanasia. The term "euthanasia", (from the Greek for “good death”) is commonly ascribed the meaning of a painless death or mercy killing. Many of the children born with Down’s syndrome or suffering from chronic/terminal illnesses, were put to death in the many convents and Mother and Baby Homes, in a clandestine programme of systematic killings that was indirectly sanctioned by the Irish Catholic Church authorities. This "euthanasia" program targeted mentally and physically disabled babies as well as healthy children. Previously unseen details of a medical trial by Glaxo in 1974 at a Cork mother and baby home have generated a whole new series of questions for the nuns and the companies involved. For almost two decades, the public has been drip-fed revelations about medical testing by British pharmaceutical companies on children in care in Ireland. These tests involved the trials of various vaccine combinations by predecessor companies of pharmaceutical giant GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) — Glaxo Laboratories and Burroughs Wellcome. These revelations generated more questions than answers — answers it is hoped the Mother and Baby Homes Commission can provide. However, it has now emerged that Glaxo Laboratories was also using other trial drug-products on children here — namely lactose and baby formulas. This occurred in 1974 in the Bessborough Mother and Baby Home in Cork and had never been made public. Once again, the revelation has generated lots of questions but few answers. A trial sheet obtained by the Irish Examiner reveals that Glaxo Laboratories carried out a “clinical acceptability and safety trial” of “Golden Ostermilk and Lactose”, while a separate trial sheet reveals a trial of “overseas milk powders. The “clinician responsible” for the tests was Eithne Conlon — a local Cork GP who worked with the institution for many years. The trial sheets recorded a range of reactions to the products. These included vomiting (slight, moderate, severe, or none), excessive regurgitation, wind (slight, moderate, severe, or none), stools (locae, normal, or constipated) and stool colour (yellow, grass green, olive green, yellow green, no stools, meconium, changing). Other “abnormal conditions” were also noted. These included excessive crying, irritability, napkin rash, thrush, and others. The latter trial sheet was contained in the records of Breda Bonass, who had sought information on her medical history from Tusla under Freedom of Information. The former only came to light when Ms Bonass sought further information from Tusla. However, this only confused matters further as the trial sheet for “Golden Ostermilk and Lactose” was found in the antenatal records of other women — and all contain identical details including patient numbers — something which the FOI officer told Ms Bonass was “perplexing”. “In the majority of cases where this record was present the record was glued to another copy of the same record [front to front] and details about the respective baby’s feeding schedules, types of formula given, reactions to feeds, etc., were hand written on this paper,” said the FOI officer. “When I pried the two sheets apart I noticed that these trial sheets all contained the exact same patient and trial numbers and identifying details as the trial sheet located in your file.” Ms. Bonass went to the religious order which ran Bessborough — the Sisters of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary — and GSK looking answers. The nuns responded via their solicitors, telling her they no longer held the records nor had any access to them and that she should go to Tusla. GSK’s UK data protection section informed her that the data had been “destroyed” as the “retention period has already expired some years ago”. The Irish Examiner contacted GSK in an effort to get answers as to why this trial was carried out in Ireland, how many children it involved and if consent was sought. It responded by saying it was “unable to locate any records relating to a 1974 study” but that it had located records relating to a trial from 1967. “The assumption therefore would be that the 1974 study’s purpose was to compare current milk powder with a newer formulation. The records contain no names or information about the children involved,” said GSK in a statement. It had no documentation to explain why Ireland was chosen as a location, but that the 1967 trial was also carried out in the UK, Kenya, Argentina, Malaysia, “and probably more”. With regard to the consent of mothers, GSK said that, due to the fact that it had no records, it could not confirm who gave consent but that its assumption was that it would have been “those Sisters running the homes as the legal guardians”. Obtaining consent would been left to the doctor conducting the trial. The company said that, to the best of its knowledge, no financial remuneration would have been provided to the Order for allowing children in its care to be used for the trial. GSK said the identical sheets were probably blank forms or templates and that the information entered “appear to be codes, possibly relating to a spreadsheet collating all responses”. It also confirmed that this was the first time it was made aware of this study and that it had not been asked to disclose it in any official capacity, “as this is clearly outside of the current Commission’s [Into Mother and Baby Homes] vaccines inquiry”. That, of course, is technically correct. The Commission is only tasked with examining vaccine trials carried out by GSK legacy companies. This latest revelation confirms that it wasn’t just vaccines that were being tested on children in care here. The involvement of Burroughs Wellcome and Glaxo Laboratories in trials on children in Mother and Baby Homes and other institutions is worth repeating. It’s been a long tale which saw a previous State inquiry —the Commission to Inquire into Child Abuse (CICA) in 2000 — try and fail to fully investigate the matter. Before that inquiry was halted following a Supreme Court ruling in 2002, GSK had confirmed just three vaccine trials in the 1960s and 1970s involving more than 250 children. In 2011, in a response to an RTÉ investigation, it acknowledged a fourth trial but stated that this was the only other clinical trial sponsored by Wellcome using children in institutions in Ireland. However, in 2014, documents uncovered by Michael Dwyer of UCC’s School of History revealed a fifth trial of a measles vaccine on 34 children took place in 1965. It was carried out by Irene Hillary and Patrick Meenan of UCD’s microbiology department and AJ Beale of Glaxo Laboratories. The UCD academics (both now deceased) were also involved in the first two vaccine trials also. Earlier that year, Dr. Dwyer also discovered evidence that Wellcome had carried out vaccine trials on more than 2,000 Irish children in 24 residential institutions between 1930 and 1935. Despite this, the Inter-Departmental Group on Mother and Baby Homes published in 2014 only referred to three vaccine trials. It also failed to mention a 1965 trial of a 5-in-1 vaccine carried out on Philip Delaney at Bessborough Mother and Baby Home in Cork. Questions around the involvement of British pharmaceutical companies in vaccine trials in Ireland have been popping up in the media for almost three decades now. They first hit the headlines in the 1990s, but it wasn’t until 1997 that then health minister Brian Lenihan gave an undertaking that the matter would be examined. This resulted in the Kiely Report in 2000, by Jim Kiely, chief medical officer of the Department of Health, which confirmed three trials had been conducted on behalf of the pharmaceutical company the Wellcome Foundation. The institutions involved were Wellcome Laboratories in Britain, the Department of Medical Microbiology in UCD, and the Eastern Health Board. The first trial took place between December 1960 and November 1961 in four Mother and Baby Homes — St Patrick’s on the Navan Road in Dublin (14 children), Bessborough in Cork (25 children), Castlepollard in Westmeath (six children), and Dunboyne (nine children). Four children from Stamullen baby home in Meath were also used for this trial. The purpose of the trial was to look at the response the children would have to a 4-in-1 vaccine — diphtheria, whooping cough, tetanus, and polio. The second trial involved 69 children from St Anne’s Industrial School in Booterstown in Dublin being administered an intranasal rubella vaccine. A further 53 children from the wider community in Kilcullen in Westmeath were also used in this trial. The first two trials were carried out by Prof Hillary and Prof Meenan from the department of Microbiology in UCD, as well as other doctors. The third trial involved 53 children in a number of residential institutions in Dublin including St Patrick’s Home, Madonna House, Bird’s Nest, and Boheenaburna. A total of 65 children living at home in Dublin also received the vaccine. The aim of the third trial was to compare commercially available batches of the 3-in-1 vaccines — Trivax and Trivax D — with that of equivalent vaccines prepared for the trial. There is no published paper or report of this trial, but the Eastern Health Board was aware it was being conducted. Dr. Kiely’s report in 2000 concluded that, given the conditions, which the vaccines sought to counter, the decision to conduct the trials was “acceptable and reasonable”. However, Dr. Kiely said there was a lack of documentation available to clarify whether consent was either obtained or sought from the parents of the children or the managers of the institutions. However, an entry in the 1962 British Medical Journal concerning the first trial seems to confirm that parental consent was not sought. “We are indebted to the medical officers in charge of the children’s homes for permission to carry out this investigation on infants under their care,” it wrote. Responding to the Kiely Report in 2000, Prof Hillary said it was her “invariable practice at the time to obtain consent of the competent authority”, be it the mother, the manager, or the medical officer. However, no record of written consent has been acknowledged. The religious orders that ran the homes involved in the trials have also denied that they authorised any clinical trials. Of the victims of the vaccine trials who have located their natural mothers, all mothers have said they were not asked for their permission. In 2000, then minister for children Micheál Martin admitted the Kiely report was “incomplete” and raised “as many questions as it answered”. However, despite this, Mr. Martin reassured the Dáil that the trials appeared to have had no medically negative consequences for any of the children involved. In an effort to deal with the matter, the Government decided to extend the terms of reference of CICA. This was done despite objections that the trials could not adequately be dealt with by an inquiry looking primarily into physical and sexual abuse. The ‘Vaccines Module’ of CICA began investigating in early 2002. It obtained documentation from GSK — the successor of Wellcome — and identified the names and addresses of some of those involved in the trials. It also sought records from a range of religious orders that were caring for the children used in the trials. In November of last year, the Irish Examiner revealed that the files of vaccine trial victims from Bessborough involved in the 1960/61 4-in-1 vaccine were altered just weeks after the CICA sought discovery of records from the Sisters of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary. The document listing the changes opens with: “8.8.02 checked the 20 files.” This is immediately followed by: “9.8.02 made the changes.” The changes made to files Nos 5, 8, 11, 12, and 15-20 are then detailed. The changes include: • The alteration of discharge dates of mothers (by a period of one year and two years): • The changing of discharge dates of children; • The changing of admission dates of mothers; • The alteration of the age of a mother (by two years); • The alteration of dates of adoption; • The changing of baptism dates and location of baptism; • The insertion of certain named locations and information into admission books. In a series of statements, the order said it wished to “categorically state that no documents were altered”. “In your recent correspondence, you are suggesting that something illegal or inappropriate had occurred in regard to the documents to which you refer. This is entirely untrue; and we will continue to deal directly with the official commission on all such matters,” said a statement. This document listing the changes was discovered in the Bessborough archive handed over to the HSE by the nuns in 2011. It wasn’t discovered until 2016 — some 13 years after CICA’s investigation into the vaccine trials was suspended. This occurred after the probe was hit with a Supreme Court ruling, which upheld Prof Meenan’s challenge against a High Court order directing him to give evidence before the inquiry. The court also criticised the decision to ask the commission to examine the vaccine trials in the first place, stating they had “only the most tenuous connection, if any, with the appalling social evil of the sexual and physical abuse of children in institutions, which was the specific area into which the commission was established to inquire”. Mr. Justice Hardiman stated that Prof Meenan’s involvement in vaccine trials related only to one trial in 1960/61 and that the issue of the “reputational damage” associated with being involved with a commission primarily looking at sexual abuse had to be considered. Following this, Prof Hillary challenged the Government’s order directing an investigation into the vaccine trials and when the Government declined to appeal this decision, the work of the Vaccines Module ceased in November 2003. However, at the time, many people believed there were far more than three trials carried out by Wellcome here. The Third Interim Report from CICA in December 2003 confirmed as much when it stated that the documentation it received from GSK “disclosed a considerable amount of information in relation to other vaccine trials conducted in the State”. When RTÉ’s Prime Time asked the pharmaceutical giant about this statement in 2011, it confirmed a fourth trial had taken place in 1965. This trial involved giving differing doses of the measles vaccine to 12 babies aged between nine and 19 months in the Sean Ross Abbey mother-and-baby home in County Tipperary. GSK stated that this fourth trial was the only other clinical trial sponsored by Burroughs Wellcome using children in institutions in Ireland. Then, in 2014, the Irish Examiner revealed a fifth trial also occurred during this period. An article in The Lancet medical journal in August 1965, discovered by Dr. Dwyer confirms that Glaxo Laboratories Ltd carried out another measles vaccine trial on 34 children aged between eight months and just over two years. The trial was carried out by Prof Hillary and Prof Meenan and AJ Beale of Glaxo Laboratories. It is also the first trial, which confirms Glaxo Laboratories involvement in a vaccine trial. The report does not mention an institution. However, it makes reference to the fact that the reaction to the vaccine was monitored by “the adults looking after the children”. It also says examinations were done on the children from day six to 14 at the same time — 6pm — indicating the children were in a group setting. However, in response, GSK disagreed that these references amounted to evidence that the trial was carried out on children in care. The pharmaceutical giant pointed out that, in other papers by the same investigator, it was stated explicitly that the study was carried out on children in care. GSK said if it had any evidence that this trial was carried out on children in care, it would have handed it over to the CICA at the time. So, three years on, we now know that it wasn’t just vaccines that were being tested on children in Ireland’s Mother and Baby Homes. Now, we know that clinical acceptability and safety trials of lactose, Golden Ostermilk and “overseas baby powders” were being tried in at least one Mother and Baby Home. Were religious orders benefiting financially by allowing children in their care to be involved in such trials? Was the consent of mothers obtained, or was it even sought? Medical miracles are complicated, but Catholic Church Miracles are never complicated. Catholic Church miracles are downright fraud but, if it is a great miracle, the Catholic Church will hijack it to make money. There will be no testing or verification by scientists - only the Catholic Church itself can do that. It is a poor Roman Catholic Church in Europe that does not boast several relics of Saints and wooden crosses. Owen Felix O’Neill The Scandal of the Illegal Vaccine Drug Trials Over the course of many decades the Irish Catholic Church - in collusion with Drug Companies and the Irish Government - conducted a series of medical experiments on vulnerable babies, orphan children and their mothers in the Mother and Baby Homes, Industrial Schools and Orphanages that they controlled and ran. In most cases, these experiments resulted in death, disfigurement, or permanent disability. Especially disturbing, was the fact that the drugs being tested were known at the time to have serious side effects and the safety of children and women was knowingly being put at risk. Several of the illegal drug testing’s on the vulnerable babies and orphan children in the Mother and Baby Home, Industrial Schools and Orphanages in Ireland, reported that the children and babies suffered constant side effects such as unknown sores and rashes, violent vomiting and violent spasms, with sudden involuntary muscular contractions and convulsive movements. Haematemesis, which is the vomiting of blood was very common, and the panicked Nuns that ran the Mother and Baby Home and Orphanages in Ireland didn’t know how to react as the babies and children died in front of them. In one secret medical report, drug company researchers reported a “disturbing” higher death rate among the children and babies who took higher doses of these experimental drugs. Many researchers were unable to determine a safe and effective dosage that they were giving to the vulnerable babies and orphan children. In many cases the child’s rectum was the route used for the illegal drug medications with other fluids, and resulted in rectal bleeding because the rectum’s blood vessels couldn’t absorb the quantity of untried and untested drugs being pumped into the child. The illegal drug experiments also disturbed the child’s circulatory system and their developing organs. The Medical drug Companies who carried out the illegal experiments told the gullible Nuns that there was minimal or no risk to the child, and that the child would directly benefit because of the drugs given. The Irish Catholic Church was paid a handsome price, as were the greedy Nuns. The murderous cabal then counted out for the duplicitous Church their “thirty pieces of blood soaked silver”. That’s all they considered Jesus to be worth, but an orphan child from a Mother and Baby Home, Industrial School or Orphanage, was worth more dead than alive - a thousand times that. The Irish Catholic Church leaders used their thirty pieces of bloody criminal silver to buy and sell more vulnerable babies and orphan children, acquire more buildings, churches and fields, paralleling the story in the Bible of Matthew 27;6-10, except in the fields that the Church bought, they furrowed the fields with the blood and remains of the thousands of murdered babies and children that they couldn’t sell back to the Medical Drug Companies, who experimented and killed them in the first place. The Irish Catholic Church speaks mere words. With worthless oaths they make covenants and judgment sprouts like poisonous weeds in the furrows of their field. The vulnerable babies and orphan children in the Mother and Baby Home, Industrial Schools and Orphanages in Ireland, were usually involuntarily placed in artificial environments, usually in special rooms within the harsh Institutions for the duration of the illegal drug experiments. The child’s behaviour was monitored by both the researchers and the willing Nuns. The drug experiments caused great distress and abnormal behaviours among the vulnerable babies and orphan children, most of whom were strapped into their cots or beds. All the children were in a heightened state of distress, much like the phenomenon of contagious anxiety. Cortisone levels rose in the children watching another child being restrained for blood collection. Blood pressure and heart rates would be elevated in children watching other children being prodded and poked, and fed tubes of running liquid. Routine research procedures, such as catching a screaming child and removing him or her from their cot beds, in addition to the experimental procedures, did cause significant and prolonged elevations in vulnerable babies and orphan children's stress markers. These stress-related changes in physiological parameters caused by the researchers’ procedures and the child’s environment can and did, have significant effects on test results. Stressed out vulnerable babies and orphan children, for example, developed chronic inflammatory conditions and intestinal leakage. Because of the stressful conditions, some of the children and babies had strokes. Many of the experimental medical drugs failed in the clinical trials causing confusion among the researchers, with different readings which added variables that confounded the data the researchers were gathering. Under closer scrutiny, it is not difficult to surmise why more than 3,750 of these potential therapies failed. The Medical Drug Companies also introduced or reintroduced the diseases in the children, so as to observe the effect that the different experimental drug reactions had on the child which was very important to the researchers. Many of the experimental drugs given to the children contributed to a high failure rate in the new drugs being developed; the downside was the painful, slow death of the child. Usually, when a child was found wanting, or the medical drug failed, various reasons were proffered by the researchers to explain to the Drug Company what went wrong with the experiments, citing poor methodology, inexperienced Nuns and poorly trained drug company researchers, with the addition, their lack of knowledge of pre-existing disease and medications already administered to the children. The wrong gender or age of the child were also factors that certainly required consideration. Recognition of each potential difference between different children’s diseases motivated renewed efforts to eliminate these differences and were worked out by the Nuns and Drug Company Researchers in seeking their next batch of guinea pig children. So diseases and conditions were reintroduced to the new batch of vulnerable babies and orphan children and the illegal medical experiments continued. Many of the children were injected with new, untried immunomodulatory drugs. Within minutes of receiving the experimental new drugs, many vulnerable babies and orphan children suffered a severe adverse reaction resulting in life-threatening problems which led to catastrophic systemic organ failure. Some medical drugs used were designed to fail by attacking the vulnerable children’s immune systems instead. The stone-faced researchers watched the stressed-out child struggling in pain while the Nuns who were observing, prayed, but never once intervened to help the struggling child. Many of the vulnerable babies and orphan children were given or underwent repeat-dose toxicity and given many times the normal dose for a few consecutive weeks. All of course went devastatingly wrong. Many babies and orphan children who survived were permanently scarred and harmed and many would die. Imprecise results from the experiments resulted in clinical trials of biologically faulty and harmful substances being used thereby exposing the children to unnecessary risk and even death. The children that have survived, now adults, have been significantly impacted in many ways with unexplained illnesses, in addition none had medical histories to call upon, so unusual or unexplained cancers developed, stressed heart problems, with leaky valves, like bicuspid aortic valves, and much more. Almost all documentations has conveniently disappeared, both from the Religious Run Institutions and the Drug Companies that carried out the illegal medical drug trails. The complicit Irish Government now claims that they were misled by the safety and efficacy profile of the new drugs based on the experiments carried out in many of Ireland’s Mother and Baby Homes, Industrial Schools and Orphanages. Who would allow a person or organisation to administer painful and experimental medical drugs to vulnerable Babies and Children in Orphanages? Who but the compliant Irish Catholic Church - and they did it purely for the money. The Catholic Church has always been thought of as the caretakers of mankind’s soul, while the medical profession was considered the healer of human health. The trust of both was, and is, sacred. But something went radically wrong, both lost their morals and ethics, their personal and professional compass for right and wrong, by allowing untested and illegal medical drugs to be used on vulnerable Babies, their Mothers and orphan Children in Religious Orphanages, in Ireland. The Irish Catholic Church’s evil is perceived as the dualistic antagonistic opposite of good, in which evil, itself prevail and good was defeated. The Irish Catholic Church’s part in these illegal medical experiments, is egregious, outrageous, and shocking. The Irish Catholic Church violated the trust placed in them by humanity. The most painful truth is for the most part the Irish Catholic Church committed crimes against Humanity and lived a life, and lie, unlike their victims. As a society, we have to confront the dark past and the reality that both the Irish Catholic Church and the Medical Drug Companies are guilty of the premeditated murder of vulnerable Babies and Children in Irish Orphanages. Medical and illegal drugs used on these vulnerable children, masquerading as research, resulted in the deaths of defenceless Babies and Children in the many religious run Institutions of Ireland. Why do we as a society have great difficulty condemning both the Medical Drug Companies and the Irish Catholic Church as evil? My question is this: Is it ever appropriate to use research as morally repugnant as that which was extracted from the vulnerable Babies and Children in Irish Orphanages for six decades and openly encouraged by the Irish Catholic Church, purely for money? If so, under what circumstances? We as a society need to comprehend fully the magnitude of this issue - the death of probably thousands of vulnerable Babies and Children in Irish Orphanages in these drug experiments - with both moral clarity and brutal honesty. When is the enormous and unspeakable suffering of those vulnerable Babies and Children who perished in (and those who survived) these horrendous Religious Run Institutions ever acceptable. Let’s pull no punches here. The Medical Drug Companies performed insidious illegal medical experiments upon helpless, defenceless Babies and Children, in Irish Orphanages for six decades. These acts of barbarity were characterised by several shocking features: defenceless children were forced against their will to become human guinea pigs in very dangerous studies; who were selected solely if their mothers or parents were dead; and all the innocent children were enticed and bribed with sweets to endure incredible suffering, mutilation, and indescribable pain. Sadly the illegal medical drug experiments were often deliberately designed to terminate in a fatal outcome. We know that the medical drug experiments were conducted in an unethical manner, so can the research results be considered scientifically reliable? And yes - the Medical Companies used the data collected from the experiments to make vast profits at the expense of the hapless Orphans. To this day the Medical Drug Company have the data but refuse to release it. In recent years, there has been a sharp debate regarding the scientific validity of these illegal medical drug trials and whether research gathered from the lethal experiments on the defenceless Babies and Children of Ireland, can be used in any way by the scientific community. The answer is that all the data gathered was used to enrich the drug companies who made hundreds of millions of dollars on the backs of these defenceless Babies and Children in Irish Orphanages with the willing and active participation of the reprehensible Irish Catholic Church, who also reaped tens of millions for themselves at the expense of the most vulnerable in Irish society - orphan children in the wretched Irish Orphanages, controlled by the Church and run by the Religious Orders. Remember that thousands of Babies and Children died from malnutrition in the Mother and Baby Homes in Ireland, with thousands more, suffering from constant malnutrition and many more suffering from anorexia. Again let’s be absolutely clear, the despicable Irish Catholic Church and the odious Medical Drug Companies are and were morally tainted and soaked with the blood of its orphan victims, the Babies, their Mothers, and Children. What good derives from this evil?, I ask myself. What kind of "good" could be salvaged from the illegal medical drug experiments and the resulting deaths and disabilities performed on these defenceless Babies and Children in Irish Orphanages, who society dumped into these hellholes of religious run Institutions? What was the benefit of these wicked experiments? The many deaths of hapless children - is that acceptable? Can it be ever be justified? The Irish Catholic Church thinks so, and the Drug Companies claim that society in general benefited. Of course they also claim that the children benefited, but in reality many children died, and many more Survivors wander around aimlessly, confused, and with known and unknown medical problems to sort out. They have no answers to their many questions stemming from their wretched childhoods at the mercy of both the Religious Orders that ran the Institutions and the Medical Drug Companies that used them as unwilling guinea pigs. Since the dead orphan babies and children can no longer represent themselves, I will always speak out for them and, indeed, for myself, for I too was the subject of a few medical drug experiments in both St. Patrick’s on the Navan Road, Dublin and St. Philomena’s Home Stillorgan County Dublin. From the age of 18 months I was experimented on and, as a result, I couldn’t walk for the first four years of my life and I still bear scars, each as big as a euro coin, on my left arm, the other scars are invisible, and are many, my personal childhood traumas and my mental scars, I will carry, like a dead weight cross, to my final resting place, my peaceful grave.

In all, at least 14 infants enrolled in clinical trials for the drug died during the testing. Eligibility criteria for study were age between 6 and 16 weeks, and “free of any known or suspected health problems”, therefore, healthy infants.

Government Cover-up of a Mercury / Autism Scandal "Government health agencies colluded with Big Pharma to hide the risks" Should the Irish Catholic Church Pay Reparations for Child Slavery? Besides the crime which consists in violating the law, and varying from the right rule of reason, whereby a man so far becomes degenerate, and declares himself to quit the principles of human nature, and to be a noxious creature, there is commonly injury done to some person or other, and some other man receives damage by his transgression: in which case he who hath received any damage, has, besides the right of punishment common to him with other men, a particular right to seek reparation. — John Locke, “Second Treatise” Religious texts in Judaism, Islam and Christianity all recognise slaves. So the question I pose is should the Irish Catholic Church pay financial Reparations to the women and children of their Religious run Institutions, like the Magdalene Laundries, the Mother and Baby Homes and the Industrial Schools of Ireland?. My answer is a clear “YES”, the Irish Catholic Church made money, hundreds of millions of pounds from the dehumanisation and demonising of unwed women and their children. It is naive to think that the past has nothing to do with the shape of today. It’s not enough that the Irish Catholic Church closest to ever offer a full apology was “ with deep sorrow and great sadness”. Financial reparations should be paid in consideration of the forced and uncompensated labour these women and their children performed in the Religious run Institutions in Ireland in which the Irish Catholic Church profited. Also many private institutions and local businesses, profited with the use of free labour from these Religious run Institutions. The main people who profited from the slavery and trafficking of children, itself, were the Irish Catholic Church. These are the reasons Reparations must be paid and why: 1. The slave women and their children built these Religious Institutions against their will. They were compensated with rape, torture, beatings and death. 2. The women and their children never had anything of value to pass down to generations to keep their memories alive, many lost their complete families within and because of these run Religious Institutions. 3. Slaves of these Religious run Institutions were not considered humans so we have no true documented history of where we are from, who we are related to or anything pertaining to our family history. Most survivors lost their complete families to the evil system, run by the Catholic Church in Ireland. If we want closure, both the Catholic Church in Ireland and the Irish State must pay Reparations. I believe that our entire Irish society would benefit from this move of paying Reparations to the women and children of these Religious Institutions. First of all, much of the economy of these Religious run Institutions, current and past were built upon the success of the Magdalene Laundries, Mother and Baby Homes and the Industrial Schools, with the use of free slave labour in the form of women and their children. For example all the Magdalene Laundries made money with the use of free slaves in the form of women and their children, who were held captive in these Religious run Institutions.The Religious Orders as slaveowners were allowed to do whatever they wanted to their slaves including beating them, sometimes to death, raping them, including impregnating them, stealing their children and babies from them to be sold as slaves and worse than anything else, dehumanising them. In many areas of these Religious run Institutions, educating their slaves was actually discouraged. The Religious Orders took any possibility of education away from them. If our parents were not educated then we would begin life with a severe disadvantage. We went a step further by continuing to deny educational opportunities once slavery in these Religious run Institutions had ended. In addition to this, the Religious run Institutions actually convinced many of women and their children that they were, in fact, less human than other Irish people. Many of the women and their children of these Religious Institutions, believed they were animals. Slavery in the Religious run Institutions in Ireland.
The Irish Catholic Church, run Institutions, all practiced domestic slavery, they couldn’t survive without slavery. Domestic servitude was also a normal practice in all Religious run Institutions in Ireland. Many of the women, girls and boys as slaves, were hired out to the local hotels, private homes, hospitals, as daily domestic help. All the slaves, male or female were unpaid, most worked very long hours, their duties were to undertake cleaning, cooking, laundry, child minding and other household tasks in private households and hotels, farms and hospitals, many of the women were also beaten and a few got pregnant after having been beaten and raped. The domestic slaves of the Religious run Institutions were trapped in an endless servitude through the use of force or coercion, such as physical (including sexual) or emotional abuse and rape. All the Religious run Institutions collected the money, from the private companies or people who used their services, but the Religious Orders never paid the women, or boys their just dues. Some of the slave women and boys reported sleeping on cold kitchen floors, or locked into farm barns or outhouses if they had to stay over. Both the female and male domestic slaves also talk about being forcibly raped and beaten during the night. The Religious run Institutions kept its vulnerable women and children in domestic servitude. Child trafficking was also widely practiced in all the Religious run Institutions in Ireland. The Irish Catholic Church sold thousands, of women and children into a hellish life of Slavery and Domestic Servitude, including the illegal sale of babies abroad to finance the Irish Catholic Church’s continuous operations and expansions, both at home and abroad. On that fact alone, there is no dispute, the Irish Catholic Church history’s worst crimes against humanity, was the selling of children and babies as slaves. Another fact, Catholic Church, run Institutions in Ireland sold children as slaves for vast profits for a low estimate of $100 million dollars. This revenue from the sales of babies and children subsidised expansions of their state schools and private hospitals that the Religious Institutions ran at the time and run to this day, and paid the school and hospital building debts that the Irish Catholic Church had accumulated at the time. Many Convents, schools, churches lands, bishops palaces, church buildings and hospitals, private nursing homes were all built on the broken backs of slave children and their mothers. All the women and children of the Magdalene Laundries, the Mother and Baby Homes and the Industrial Schools in Ireland were slaves. Now it seems to some morally imperative that they, the Irish Catholic Church, repay their ethical debts to these former slaves of these heinous Religious run Institutions. When the Religious run Institutions fell into financial trouble, the illegal sale of the Irish babies, women and children staved off its ruin. Finally, the Church’s asset portfolio included 10,700 properties, the Catholic Church in Ireland owns or occupied more than 10,700 properties across the country and controlled nearly 6,700 religious and educational sites. With property worth in excess of 12 billion Euros, plus billions more in assets like Hard-Cash, Art, Books, Manuscripts, Gold, Silver, Jewels, Furniture, and other investments. This information was gleaned from known records. Something else the Irish Catholic Church pays no taxes and even gets vast sums of free money from the Irish Government. So the money for paying reparations could easily come from the very wealthy Irish Catholic Church’s assets. If we moved that Irish Catholic Church money, into reparations it would provide the recompense deserved for the abuse of all the Survivors, it would help also to remove the stigma many Survivors feel today. I want to elaborate on how reparations improve Survivors' lives. By acknowledging the disadvantage created by slavery in these Catholic Church run Institutions and the subsequent human rights violations committed in them. Its important even significant factor that slavery played a huge part in bolstering the economic strength of the Irish Catholic Church, and Ireland in general. We here in Ireland must take responsibility as a nation for allowing such a thing to exist, we also restore the dignity of that suffering to those, the Survivors, who have descended from it and most certainly been impacted by it. Improving those relationships and removing the stigma from the money that this Irish Catholic Church should distribute, would unite our nation, improve our economy (putting money into the hands of people who will spend it) and significantly improve the conditions for many of our elderly Survivors. The Irish Catholic Church directly benefited from the slavery of these women and their children, as did all the Religious Orders, with the illegally, selling of babies and children, enforced labour on the captive women and their children. The vast profit making of the Industrial Schools through the selling of their farm products, clothing, shoes, and carpentry, and of course the illegal trafficking of babies and children directly out of the Mother and Baby Homes of Ireland. Also the vast profits made in the Magdalene Laundries run as a criminal enterprise with the full support of the Irish Government and Irish Business Contracts. These women and children of the Religious run Institutions in Ireland, did not go to a proper school and had little or no time to play. Also in most cases they very often did not receive proper nutrition or care. They lived the life of an adult and had their childhood, abused, raped and stolen. A vast majority of the women and their children worked in hazardous environments, as slaves. The women and their children were forced to work long hours as slaves in the Magdalene Laundries, the Mother and Baby Homes and the Industrial Schools of Ireland. Many within the Religious Orders that ran these vile Institutions, beat, raped and even killed their charges, forcing the women and children to work long hours, many in poor health. Many women and their children were physically tortured, with beatings, rapes and starvations. All the women and Children were verbally abused and physical assaulted on a daily basis, many women and children were worked or beaten to death. Child slavery and child labour was acceptable in our society and encouraged and run by the Irish Catholic Church. Let’s be clear, child labour, exploitation and child slavery destroys the innocence of the child, children should not have their childhood taken away. It is not the children’s duty nor should it never be the duty, to meet the needs of the Irish Catholic Church, in all cases, child labour leads to corruption, child abuse, child rape, human trafficking and slavery. Slavery in any form is wrong and it is disgusting that the Irish Catholic Church profited by enslaving women and children in their Magdalene Laundries, Mother and Baby Homes and the Industrial Schools of Ireland. “Slavery is the use or the threat of violence to make another do work without compensation”, and this is what the powerful Irish Catholic Church did. The Irish Catholic Church now has a Moral Debt owed to these women and children of their Religious Run Institutions. Slavery is the ownership, buying and selling of human beings for the purpose of forced and unpaid labour, and this is what the Irish Catholic Church did with tens of thousands of unwed mothers and their children throughout its many Religious run Institutions in Ireland. Even Irish Catholic Church practice of slavery didn't usually try to defend it - they made excuses and attempt to avoid being caught; which suggests that they, the Irish Catholic Church know that they were doing wrong.
“All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood”. Article 1, Universal Declaration of Human Rights “Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of person”. Article 3, Universal Declaration of Human Rights “No one shall be held in slavery or servitude; slavery and the slave trade shall be prohibited in all their forms”. Article 4, Universal Declaration of Human Rights • Slavery uses force or the threat of force on other human beings
How ironic from the head of the Catholic Church, Pope Francis considers exploitation 'a grievous wound in the body of humanity’ and therefore for Catholics a wound in the body of Christ. If Pope Francis believes his own words, then let him speak out about the past practice of slavery of women and children in the Magdalene Laundries, Mother and Baby Homes and the Industrial Schools of Ireland. Some children were kidnapped by force, by the Nuns often after their Mothers had died, during birth or the mother was murdered, by neglect, or deprived of medications, in the Mother and Baby Homes of Ireland. These kidnapped babies would not be permitted to remain even with other living relatives who were lawfully married and in some cases had no children of their own. Other kidnapped children were sent to special centres and other Religious Institutions to be fattened up for future sales. All their official documents were altered by the enterprising Nuns, including their date of birth, the place they were born in, and their Mother’s name. Some of the kidnapped children had their original metrics of birth destroyed, and their names changed so were classified as "of little sale value" due to chronic undernourishment, deformity or ongoing illness, they would then be sent to other Religious run Institutions, within Ireland or abroad. Many of these kidnapped children now grown women and men, upon returning to Ireland to look for their families, in the last few years, said that their childhood kidnapping and abuses with their new families abroad has left an indelible haunting impression on them, when years later they learned the truth. The extent of this secret program run by the Irish Catholic Church became clear to researchers over the course of many years, as they found groups of “returning Irish men and women, with dubious paperwork of their birth, false paperwork, issued to their adoptive parents by the Nuns, who sold them as nothing more than chattel. These returning adults, now come to beg for any official help in tracing their true families, which is now provided by the different Survivor groups partly funded by the Irish Government. Locating these children’s childhood was and is a hidden minefield which turned up their horrendous stories of forcible removals, beatings, rapes and even death at the hands of the savage Irish Religious Orders. Some researchers with Bernardo’s Tracing Services, were constituted to search for any paperwork or family that would or could help. But sadly with Irish Religious Order’s paperwork altered deliberately on the adults as children, it has proven hopeless. The Religious run Institutions and the Religious Orders that ran them were trained and coached to provide false information. Thousands of these children now adults, suffered emotional trauma when they were removed forcibly from their Mothers or other relatives, and will continue to do so to this day. Many have memories of their wretched childhood, the youngest children sold out of the system had no memories of their mothers or other family members that could be recalled. Now returning in their thousands to Ireland, desperate for any scrap of information about their true identity, sadly not finding it, as the criminally desperate Irish Catholic Church, continues to destroy all documentation of their criminal past crimes.
