The Irishmen And The Drug Dealers - Ireland

Oct 1996
When Irish journalist Veronica Guerrin was killed investigating Dublin's drug syndicates, a den of iniquity was exposed. This feature looks undercover at the drugs epidemic sweeping through Dublin and the impact ordinary Irish people are having on the drugs industry. It's an armed and dangerous anti-drug vigilante squad. Many in Ireland believe it was the inactivity of the politicians which led to Veronica Guerrin's death. Liz Allen has inherited Veronica's job at the newspaper and discusses the well known Dublin drug dealer who is widely acknowledged to be behind the murder. On the worst streets nobody goes without protection, every street corner - a drug supermarket. On the inside, Linda is on Methadone and desperately trying to beat the drug trap. Where are her family? 'They're in their graves, all 6 feet under, through drugs'. But now the people are taking control and protesting outside drug dealers houses. Popular Irish marches intimidate local drugs warlords. 'We're just showing them that they're not wanted'. Dublin's police chief insists that his forces are in control. The vigilantes say that the fact theat they exist means there must be a serious problem in Irish society

oh, and not forgetting the C.I.A.

Bullshit video Gerry Hutch aka "The Monk" never sold drugs in his life and is chairman of an inner city boxing club..yes he has organised and robbed banks etc..but this video makes him out to be a petty criminal drug dealer..bullshit..english reporter that doesnt understand Dublin culture.

Haha, The Monk was in there round 04:00 . I think he was more involved in robberies back heists etc. He wasn't into Drug Dealing really. Maybe he was afraid of TAD lol!

[chugalongway]

TAD wanted their share of the drug profits and were loyalist looking to raise funds for guns.
