'The man who does not forgive may as well dig two graves'

MICHAEL McGoldrick was murdered in July 1996, just weeks after Garda Jerry McCabe was shot dead in Limerick.

Mr McGoldrick, a Catholic taxi driver, was the first victim of the loyalist splinter group, the LVF, set up by the renegade UVF chief in mid-Ulster Billy Wright.

He was shot five times by gunman Clifford McKeown after responding to a call. He was a victim simply "by the chance of his taxi firm's rota", the trial judge said before ordering that McKeown serve 24 years in jail.
