GSOC seeks transcripts relating to garda killer

The Garda Siochána Ombudsman Commission has applied to the Special Criminal Court for transcripts relating to appearances before the court of Adrian Crevan Mackin, who shot dead Garda Anthony Golden in 2015 before killing himself.

The court was told that a “public interest investigation” has been launched by GSOC following complaints it received about “the nature of some interactions it is alleged members of An Garda Siochána had with Mackin both prior and subsequent to his arrest in January 2015.”
