The Deirdre O’Shaughnessy Podcast: The Irishman held by ICE and Martin's White House visit

Tadgh McNally joins the podcast to talk about the Seamus Culleton case and the wider context ahead of Micheál Martin's White House visit

Political reporter Tadgh McNally joins the podcast to talk about the case and the wider context ahead of the White House visit.

In recent weeks, the story of Kilkenny man Seamus Culleton has come to the fore as an Irishman living and working in America who is being detained by the US immigration police ICE.

He has described the conditions in the detention centre as like a "modern-day concentration camp" but, since his story came to the public's attention, reports have emerged relating to Mr Culleton's past including his estranged daughters and cases before the courts.
