He goes through the Supreme Court finding that the Anglo loans were illegal but still enforceable, the expert reports put before the court, and how the Quinns' treatment compares with the Maple Ten's.\nThe conversation also covers David Drumm's conviction, Judge Hardiman's criticism of leaks to the press, Alan Dukes' remarks in the RTÉ documentary, the Quinn Business Retention Company and its shareholding, the request for \"retrospective\" legal advice, and who Chris believes should be held accountable.\n00:00 Intro – Chris McGettigan, PJ Flanagan & Co\n01:04 The Quinns and Enniskillen\n02:33 2007, CFDs and Anglo\n05:06 Was Anglo really a \"wild investment\"?\n06:50 Patricia Quinn and the 100 million loan\n09:21 Bankruptcy and the one-line judgment\n13:56 Why pursue Patricia?\n15:27 Complaints to the Gardaí, Central Bank and regulators\n17:43 David Drumm's conviction\n20:45 The Maple Ten vs the Quinns\n24:04 The Supreme Court: illegal but enforceable\n28:13 What the expert reports said\n31:33 Alan Dukes\n33:06 Leaks to the press and Judge Hardiman\n36:24 The Quinn Business Retention Company\n38:59 The 2016 consultancy termination\n40:07 QBRC's 22% stake and the sale\n43:48 Where did the money go?
