Gardaí didn't interview 'alibi witnesses', tribunal told

Gardaí failed to interview around 100 "alibi witnesses" who could have cleared a man suspected of involvement in the murder of Raphoe cattle dealer Richie Barron, the Morris Tribunal today heard.

Frank McBrearty Jnr, who has claimed Donegal gardaí attempted to frame him for the death, said many members of the family’s bar staff, who could have backed up his location on the night of Mr Barron’s death, were not asked for statements.
