Slow-motion evidence no CCCC quick fix

A former GAA disciplinary chief has warned about the use of slow motion in deciding cases.

Ex-Central Competitions Control Committee (CCCC) chairman Tony O’Keeffe said while the committee is entitled to look at video evidence as they see fit, there is a danger of reading too much into slowed down footage as it is similar to video stills and photographs, which are deemed inadmissible by the CCCC.

O’Keeffe was speaking in general terms, not referencing the James McCarthy-Martin McElhinney incident in the Dublin-Donegal Division 1 game in Croke Park last Saturday.
