Thanks to @kelpana for the reminder of this 2021 report of a previous storm created by the #BurkeFamily, in #NUIG #NUIGalway.

#EnochBurke & three siblings had misused university funds for political purposes, misused the university logo, funneled money to a fifth sibling, faked accounts, impeded investigations, and lied repeatedly.

And of course the Burkes dragged it all through the #WorkplaceRelationsCommission and then the #CircuitCourt.
