    For the attention of yourself,

    A criminal investigation concerning you has now been set in motion by the Garda National Protective Services Bureau (GNPSB) under An Garda Síochána. You’re hereby formally notified that your name has come up in connection with this matter, and that information has been gathered from a range of sources. Your potential criminal liability is currently under active and ongoing review, so it is. This inquiry is being pursued with the full weight of Irish law behind it.

    In light of the heightened international scrutiny following the Jeffrey Epstein case, any individual suspected of offences involving minors or online activity is now met with a strict zero-tolerance approach. The GNPSB is working in coordination with Europol and Interpol on this matter. There’ll be no exceptions made, no mitigating stories entertained, and no slack given none at all.

    You have been formally identified within the scope of this investigation, which is being handled by specialised units. The consequences arising from this are serious in the extreme, and could leave you facing significant legal, professional, and personal repercussions.

    What you are required to do

    You are hereby instructed to provide a written statement, in your own words, within twenty-four (24) hours of receiving this notice. That deadline is strict and final  there’ll be no extensions granted, under any circumstances.

    Failure to comply

    Should you fail to respond within the time specified, this matter will proceed without any further warning. This may include:

    • The immediate referral of your case to the Director of Public Prosecutions for consideration of charges;
    • The initiation of all appropriate legal measures under the laws of Ireland.

    This is a formal and final notification. You’d want to take it very seriously indeed and act on it without delay no excuses, no putting it off.

    You know yourself what’s at stake.

    By Order,
    Secretariat
    Garda National Protective Services Bureau (GNPSB)
