Paul Redmond
HARDtalk speaks to Paul Redmond. He was born into an Irish Mother and Baby Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ and adopted before he was a month old. Now he feels he has a duty to expose what went on.
It was front page news around the world when a mass grave was discovered at a Mother and Baby Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ in Ireland. The remains of almost 800 babies were found. But research by Paul Redmond showed that this was only "the tip of the iceberg". He collected evidence of high death rates at homes for illegitimate children across Ireland and also claimed the catholic nuns who ran them were trading in adoptions; being paid to send children to the United States for adoption often against the mother's wishes and sometimes without her knowledge. He was born in one of those homes and adopted before he was a month old. Now he feels he has a duty to expose what went on.
