Garda fabricated 'murder confession', tribunal told

A senior garda who was involved in the early investigation into Raphoe cattle dealer Richie Barron’s death was today accused of fabricating an alleged confession to murder.

Frank McBrearty jnr told Supt John McGinley that there were several similarities between the scenario in his alleged confession to the murder of Mr Barron and questions the Gardaí had put to another witness.
