Garda family has good reason not to trust some prominent politicians

Martin Fallon has a right to feel aggrieved.

He joined the gardaí after his brother Richard was murdered while chasing bank robbers. When Martin became a ministerial driver, it was “common knowledge” among the other drivers that the man suspected of murdering his brother was helped to escape in Neil Blaney’s ministerial car.

EVER since the bungled investigation into the assassination of President John F Kennedy the net of suspicion has been spreading wider. The latest spotlight has been turned on Lyndon Johnson, the man who succeeded him in the White House.
