Anonymous telephone calls made month after death of Barron, says witness

THE Morris Tribunal probe into garda corruption yesterday heard of anonymous telephone calls made to two addresses in Raphoe, Co Donegal, in the months after local cattle dealer Richie Barron met a mystery roadside death there nearly seven years ago.

Witnesses Catherine "Dolly" Eaton and her daughter Charlotte Peoples told the inquiry the calls were made to their homes.

Mrs Eaton said she received around 20 calls, some at around 5am, over a period of about three months, and they only stopped when she changed her telephone number.
