Ex-McCarthy-Dundon boss running drugs empire

In a separate development, solicitor John Devane revealed yesterday John Dundon, whom he represents, apologised for assaulting him at Limerick courthouse in 2009. At the time, Mr Devane refused to report the matter saying he was warned if he did, he would be a “dead man walking”.
