Summary

Sean McGovern, right-hand man of Daniel Kinahan, was handed down a massive 24-year sentence yesterday for his role in a murder and a surveillance plot against a Hutch associate during the Kinahan and Hutch feud. Noel ‘Duck Egg’ Kirwan was an innocent man who stood beside the Monk as he attended his brother Eddie’s funeral after his murder in February 2016. That, gardaí have said, was enough to have him assassinated days before Christmas that year as Kinahan killers stalked their prey. Nicola and Niall speak to Eamon Dillon. Hosted on Acast.
