There's no way you could envisage this type of scenario though. Absolutely no way.
Absolutely correct. Same way the family of that poor girl Sally Maaz could have envisaged what they'd have to endure the day of her inquest.
Burke family are the essence of human dirt.

On several occasions during the two-day inquest, as the grieving Maaz family watched on quietly, there were heated exchanges between the Burke family and the coroner for Mayo, Patrick O’Connor. At one stage Martina Burke told the coroner: “You are not invincible, let me tell you.” She later interjected that the inquest was a “whitewash”.
Acting under Sections 6 and 8 of the Public Order Act 1994, gardaí removed Martina, Josiah and Jemima from the courthouse. As he was led away, Josiah roared that the court was “a sham” and a “disgrace”. The family proceeded to film for their social media outside the coroner’s court, accusing witnesses of lying and describing the hospital as “wicked”.

Superintendent Joe McKenna later apologised to the Maaz family for having to “endure” the behaviour of the Burkes. The Maaz family, says one source, “had no involvement and want no involvement” in the disruption to the hearing. A verdict on their daughter’s death is due in the inquest at Swinford courthouse next Monday.
