PAT FINUCANE MURDER

PAT FINUCANE MURDER

Patrick Finucane (1949 - 12 February 1989) was a Catholic Belfast solicitor killed by loyalist paramilitaries on 12 February 1989. His killing was one of the most controversial during the Troubles in Ireland.Pat Finucane came to prominince due to successfully challenging the British Government over several important human rights cases in the 1980s. He was shot fourteen times as he sat eating a meal at his Belfast home with his three children and wife, who was wounded in the attack. In September 2004 an UDA informer, Ken Barrett, pleaded guilty to his murder. Two public investigations concluded that elements of the British state apparatus colluded in Finucane's murder and there have been high-profile calls for a public inquiry. However, in October 2011 it was announced that a planned public inquiry would be replaced by a less wide-ranging review.

@angusmctavish62 Even you as a cop or branch, spook or what ever you are know rightly that the Brit gov. ordered it. Here is a website that will show you quite clearly how your Intelligence Services work.

@Swiftyireland That's precisely the point old son; I know they didn't.

The JIC was never briefed with details of FRU/SB/MI5 ops. It's called deniability.
