Retired Sergeant Major PJ Higgins takes us back to the chaotic search in 1983 for kidnapped Quinnsworth executive, Don Tidey. Snatched from near his home by the IRA, it took the combined efforts of An Garda Siochana and the Defence Forces three weeks to track Tidey to dense woodland in Leitrim.
Sergeant Major Higgins was part of the search team. Almost 40 years on, he reflects on the mistakes made during the rescue mission which lead to a fatal shoot-out and the death of his colleague Army Private Patrick Kelly. Also killed was Garda recruit Gary Sheehan, and his close friend Det Sergeant Cyril Meehan recalls the tragedy of his death. Retired Detective Inspector Edwin Handcock offers insights into the investigation that followed, while Private Kelly’s son, David, describes the impact of his father’s death, and his own search for justice.
