    Lonely or Lurking? Was She Right to Call The Police? Episode 319
    Niall Boylan

In this episode, Niall tackles a divisive question: was a woman right to involve the Garda after noticing an elderly man sitting in a park and watching children? The debate stems from a listener’s email, sharing his conflicted feelings about his wife’s decision and the assumptions behind it.

The email describes how the woman, feeling uneasy about the man’s presence, reported him to the authorities out of concern for the children’s safety. Her husband, however, wonders if the man was simply a lonely individual seeking company rather than a cause for alarm.

As the conversation unfolds, callers offer contrasting views on the situation. Some defend the woman’s actions, arguing that safeguarding children should always take precedence. Others question whether the response was fair, cautioning against rushing to judgment and the harm it can cause to innocent people.

Through a series of heartfelt opinions, the episode examines the fine line between vigilance and unwarranted suspicion, leaving listeners with much to consider about responsibility, perception, and fairness in public spaces.
