I spent three years searching for a Forensic Expert in Ireland and many other countries. They all replied, but were afraid to tackle the corruption at the highest level of our society in Ireland. Michael Moore stepped up to the challenge. His work is independently fearless, professional, accurate and in my case a game changer. I sincerely thank Michael for his professional ability and independence”
