'What would you check first - their pulse or their passport? If like me, you check their pulse first, you have committed the exact same crime that I supposedly am guilty of...' Seán Binder speaks ahead of his trial in January
Seán is calling for the charges against him and other search and rescue workers to be dropped. A KERRY MAN who could face a maximum sentence of 25 years in prison on felony charges related to his efforts to help migrants crossing the Mediterranean is set to go on trial next month.
“At times we did have to help folks who were at risk of drowning due to their treacherous journeys, and for this I spent over three-and-a-half months in pre-trial prison. Let me tell you I wouldn’t recommend it, it is not great,” he added.
