	Opinion Story: Cory seen as conscience of Supreme Court - March 6, 1999
		Cory leaves the top court at a wrenching time when it is struggling to combat criticism it is too activist, too interventionist, too, well, supreme.
		Cory says because those tasks mean deciding life-and-death dilemmas such as abortion, euthanasia, assisted suicide or issues of fundamental freedoms such as free speech, freedom of association, or freedom of religion, the stakes are high and opinions sharply divided.
		Cory says with the current makeup of the court - seven men and two women - there have only been two occasions when the court has split along gender lines, which he says means there is no gender split.

	Representative Christopher H. Smith - (NJ04) - Judge Cory Details Evidence of Collusion in High Profile Murders
		Smith said Judge Cory’s report in the Finucane case is replete with evidence of possible collusion relating to activities of the army intelligence unit and the RUC.
		Cory agreed saying, “This is one of the rare instances where a public inquiry should take precedent over a prosecution.” He compared the growing suspicion among both sides to a “cancer that will grow greater and greater until exploration is made and people can get on with living and living together as a country.”
		In the Finucane murder, Cory stated that documentation showed the attorney to be a prime target of paramilitary forces for nearly a decade before his killing, but no steps were taken to warn him of the dangers he faced.

	Northern Ireland: Reports detail Britain's collusion with loyalist murder squads
		Cory’s reports are damning, although they mainly bring together information that has already been in the public domain for some time.
		Cory accuses the RUC of ignoring warnings that a street ambush was in the making, and suggests that one RUC officer in particular, a member of the same martial arts club as one of those involved in the killing, hindered the subsequent botched investigation.
		Cory commented, “[T]his case is unique in that it will turn on whether or not police officers by assisting or counselling the Protestant rioters or by turning a blind eye to their misconduct, acted in a collusive manner.”

	Irlandinitiative Heidelberg - Cory Reports and the press
		As Justice Cory said as a result of the cowardly actions of Pat’s murderers I have been deprived of the love and companionship of a good husband, his children of his care and guidance and Northern Ireland of his courage and skill as a lawyer.
		Cory's is the first official and detailed account of the British security and intelligence establishment's attempts to withhold the truth about the scale of collusion during the Troubles, either because they did not understand what collusion was, or because they did not wish to know.
		Cory reveals that prior to the trial the attorney general, Sir Patrick Mayhew, had told MoD officials and the defence secretary, Tom King, that such a claim was untrue.

	Representative Christopher H. Smith - (NJ04) - Africa, Global Human Rights and International Relations Subcommittee ...
		The Cory Report and its call for a Public Inquiry into allegations of state-sponsored collusion in Patrick Finucane’s murder underscore the critical links between government accountability, public confidence in the rule of law, and the prospects for a peaceful future.
		The Cory report stated, "If Nelson is correct in stating that he told his handlers that Patrick Finucane was a target, and no steps were taken by FRU (the Army) to either warn Patrick Finucane or otherwise intervene then that would be capable of constituting a collusive act.
		Following Judge Cory’s recommendation, the British government recently established the public inquiry into her murder, and we look forward to hearing from one of our witnesses today about the status of that inquiry.

		Cory's report, presented to the British government in October but kept secret until yesterday, examined the killings of Catholic lawyers Pat Finucane, shot to death by loyalist paramilitaries in 1989, and Rosemary Nelson, killed by a car bomb planted by Protestant militants in 1999.
		Cory said there was "strong evidence" police and military intelligence had colluded in Finucane's death, and that the case "may be one of the rare situations where a public inquiry will be of greater benefit to a community than prosecutions."
