    He is locked up but he did stay in the house where the victim was shot outside tonight when he first came to Ireland.

    Not the chap who was last week fined and disqualified from driving after telling police he’d been drinking and driving, when stopped?

    He really does look like a hitman, even with the name he could be a bond villian. :)

    Maybe.

    A wife of one of the hutches has a similar surname (but probably just a coincidence) which would seem strange given Nicola Tallant is saying this chap was a Kinahan associate.

    A relation removed perhaps?

    True. Over the summer on pat kennys radio show and rte sean o roukre she mentioned deirdre jabcob who is missing, was from carlow or meath. Rotten rotten research by her

    That’s the thing I don’t really think she researches, just rehashes key points she’s heard from various sources without waiting to verify or double check, time and time again I’ve seen this in her reporting and I cringe when i hear her getting national airtime and being referred to as the expert crime correspondent, she ran with something on Twitter regarding the jastine valdez case and it was complete crap, it was really reckless at the time, i think her m.o is to be the first to say something to get attention rather than worrying about if what she is reporting is actually true.

    Yes. I read about it. I assume this chap is related ?

    Is he related to a metalworker as well ?

    Nichola Tallant's naming him as a Kinahan associate doesn't make sense. Is not part of the other family ?

    Ye wouldn't be able to keep up with all of this. There is a sequence of films in it.

    I know what you are saying. Are you sure they are related and that it is not just a coincidence ?

    Tallant's article tomorow makes no sense then.

    It is the car valeter that bought it. His Da is a Kinahan and he himself married into the Hutches.#totesawks. He is the lad put Arakis up. He seems to have lived a very normal life with the business and social media and stuff, seems a bit naive to put it mildly, given his familial status.

    He does also have at least 2 young kids so thats a terrible trauma for them, they weren't born to have that fate.

    My understanding is connected but not a blood relative, one who may have switched sides maybe?

    You can be sure that the timing of this hit(Christmas) was deliberate in order to maximise the shock horror factor.

    Would you really give them that much credibility?
    Who was it aiming to maximis the shock horror factor to?

    The victims family would definitely feel it no matter what time of year.

    I'm not giving them any "credibility". Your choice of word not mine. Do you know what that word even means?

    I didn't want to use the word credit, so assuming you knew it because somebody 'in the know' told you, I was asking if you really believe it.

    I wouldn't.

    Man shot in Blakestown Cottages, Blanch earlier today is in critical condition. Blakestown Cottages was also the place the Estonian hitman was arrested.

    edit- seems he passed away?

    I've never seen this before. Baked beans has put out a message that he had nothing to do with it. Very strange as he normally doesnt say anything when this stuff goes down. RIP

    Doubt it. A hit is a hit. If they want you gone I doubt they wait around for a particular time of year to "maximise the shock horror factor". The only time I'd imagine they'd wait would be to let the dust to settle after the last hit/attempted hit and let Garda activity die down and their target's guard drop.

    yeah well certain twitter threads certainly indicate that. just another motive to add to the mix, very confusing. journo's saying he is a kinahan associate, other people that seem in the know on twitter saying he's a hutch associate. I'd nearly lean towards believing the latter.

    I’m not up to scale on who’s who in Dublin gangland but from a few I know in me area who know seem to be saying he married a hutch, his da was man who put the Estonian up. It’s a mess. Who is baked beans?
