Jailed IRA garda killers ‘live like kings in own compounds’

JAILED IRA garda killers are living like “kings in their own compounds”, gardaí said yesterday.

Rank and file officers called on Justice Minister Michael McDowell to end the liberal regime granted to the killers of Garda Jerry McCabe.

“Garda killers are garda killers and belong locked up and not free to roam like kings in their own little compounds, let alone back on the streets,” said Dermot O’Donnell, president of the Garda Representative Association (GRA).
