Indeed, one of the issues around this case is Bailey himself. He is a woman beater, what he did to Jules should have seen him behind bars, but of course back then in Ireland beating a woman was seen as a right and he got off lightly. From the description of him trying to touch up the girl sleeping in the studio, he is clearly a sexual predator, his diary entries demonstrate his inner thoughts on young girls too. He is clearly full of himself, he has a superior attitude, clearly well educated, however his handling of this case shows him to lack common sense and self-awareness.
As you can see from comments, this encourages people to convict him on his personality rather than evidence, however that is a very dangerous slippery slope. It is the very meaning of "witch-hunt", burning women at the stake simply due to personality.
The ongoing Cold Case investigation has revealed a couple of interesting leads. One is that a French speaker was witnessed at the pub with scratches on his face. He drove a rental car with false number plates. Another very interesting one is that Sophie had met with two French men who were hiding out locally from organised crime. Did the gang go to her looking for these men? A third is that there was a man she was close to who's wife was very jealous.
There is far more to this case than what the original bungling police found in their haste to convict the local weirdo, and it isn't pointing in Bailey's direction yet. The French had already found DNA that was not Bailey's, if advanced DNA techniques can get DNA off the murder weapon, who knows where it may lead?

"Violent abuser who was the only violent drunk living next door to Sophie. "
He did not live next door to Sophie, he lived 3 miles away. A violent drunk wife-beater, Karl Heinz Wolney, also a suspect, lived HALF the distance. He was in town when Sophie was, he had no alibi and committed suicide 2 months later, allegedly stating that he had done something terrible. Why have you not focused on HIM then?
"His ex Jules ended up in hospital she nearly lost an eye because of one of his drunken violent and abusive episodes"
Domestic Violence was common in 90s Cork, does that make all those people suspects? Since the timeline is a 10 hour window, does that make every person in Ireland involved in DV a suspect too? It is limited to people known to each other, the clue being in the name. It does not mean that a person would then go on to murder a stranger In fact his ex-wife stated that he never hit her, so it appears limited to only Jules.
"The scratches on his arms and head from killing a turkey. "
Jules' daughters gave statements saying that the scratches were there before the murder. They did this and they hate him. So even after everything Jules and her daughters have been through, they still support his innocence despite the hatred of him.
"His ex said he sneaked out and was missing during the time Sophie was murdered."
No she did not, she stated that he often left the bed to write news articles. She said that an article was on the kitchen table in the morning.
" Just like the french legal system knew he did too and found him guilty. "
The French court used Marie Farrell's statements that she saw him near the scene. She had stated that it was lies. The French knew it was lies. You find it acceptable that a person should be convicted using a KNOWN LIE do you? Would you be happy to be convicted based on know lies?
"An innocent man would have even a little sense of sadness sensitivity and humility."
How do you know that he has not? You even then go on to say, "He says he prays for Sophie.", so make your mind up. You have contradicted yourself.
