	Politics \| Sex diaries of Roger Casement found to be genuine
		The private diaries of Sir Roger Casement, in which the folk hero of Irish republicanism wrote in exuberant detail of sex with men, are genuine beyond doubt, the first forensic study of them for 86 years found yesterday.
		The controversy has lasted in Ireland, Britain and the US almost since Casement was hanged for high treason in August 1916 after trying to land arms for the Irish Easter rising.
		Prof McCormack said Casement's supporters were entitled to resent the 1916 government's "plain flguardism" in deploying private diaries to send a politically embarrassing figure to the scaffold.

	Roger Casement letters on display: Clare Champion, 29th April 2005
		All because a collection of letters written by Casement as he was involved in planning Ireland’s revolution has finally gone on display in Clare County Museum, over 35 years after they were donated to Clare County Council by noted Clare solicitor Ignatius Houlihan.
		“Casement’s concern for the spiritual welfare of Irish prisoners of war in Germany is reflected very clearly in this part of the collection, as is his contempt for the British government and his desire to see it undermined.
		What comes across particularly strongly, however, is Casement’s inextinguishable passion and drive for the cause of Irish independence, reflected also in his writings from the period.
