Although the media attributed the “dumped in a septic tank” allegation to Catherine Corless, a local amateur historian, she denies making it. Her attempt to correct the record was reported by the Irish Times newspaper on Saturday (see here) but has been almost entirely ignored by the same global media that so gleefully recycled the original suggestion. That suggestion, which seems to have first surfaced in the Mail on Sunday, a London-based newspaper, reflected appallingly on the Sisters of Bon Secours, the order of Catholic nuns at the center of the scandal.
That structure was known to local residents as a septic tank for a long time, annalex. The local historian, Catherine Corless, researched death records for that home and located 796 from infant to age 9 for which there is no record of burial. You say there is a mass grave there and evidently there must be given those records. But, if not in that structure known long and widely as a septic tank to locals that you prefer to call a crypt, then where is it? If it is in fact a crypt, then why so much resistance to admitting that the bodies of these unfortunate children who died are in it? The whole thing is bizarre, I’ve been fascinated by the gyrations of the defense for over a week. You’re merely the latest to have a go.
