Irish lip reader confused
botox woman's SOS with
oral expression of Blah
Blah Blah which has been
blamed on his difficulty of
trying to deduce her calls
for help from The River
Lee in Cork City Ireland.

A spokesperson for the ILRA
(Irish Lip Readers Association)
defended his colleague and
attributed the tragedy to Covid
19, as the lady was wearing a
black face mask which not only
made her cries for assistance
inaudible, she could also have
been a Muslim and hence her
expressions of alarm, in Arabic.

By the time it would have taken
to request a bilingual translater
from Arabic to English or Irish,
she would in that duration have
drowned anyway.

A witness from St Patricks Bridge
said he saw the lady earlier get on
a bus in Kanturk and changed in
Magh Allah for Cork city. At that
time she was wearing a Hijab
(which unlike France, are not
illegal in Ireland, where diversity
and liberty is cherished)

A Spokesperson for The Garda
told The Irish Examiner, that a
lot of people swim up the river
to avoid the crowds and wear face
masks for the pollution.

No charges are being proposed
for the Lip Reader's error of
Judgement, but the Judge has
requested that he take night classes
in Arabic.

Case Dismissed.
