McBrearty Snr: Finding that I wrote fax one more insult to endure

FRANK McBrearty Snr has denied he was behind faxes that alleged serious wrongdoing by two senior gardaí.

He said the finding of the Morris tribunal was “one more insult” he had to endure as a result of exposing corruption by gardaí in Donegal.

Mr Justice Frederick Morris found that Mr McBrearty and a retired garda, Patrick J Togher, composed two faxes which contained serious allegations about two assistant commissioners, Kevin Carty and Tony Hickey.
