Gangland Shootings part 4 - Read OP before posting - updated 30/12/23

JD and GH were in cahoots?

Yeah. JD, an already very successful man (I hesitate to say rich, as from the sounds of things despite a great income he was spending and thus likely borrowing ludicrous amounts of money on cars, bikes, fish tanks) agreed to throw away his business, and do up to 3 years in prison or whatever he copped in late 2022, all as part of a long scheme to get GH acquitted so that he can come back home in 2030 or so.

Would you get up the yard. Really like.

Dowdalls life is fucked. He was a wreck during the court case. He had aged about 10 years with no future. He's hiding away for the next 10 years afraid of what might await him

Never mind the chances of being charged if some scumbag kills themselves, flame grilled whopper style, while you are in pursuit of them.

We don't know what happened in between those two happenings. Did they manage to infiltrate GSOC? The former investigator who was at the Hutch party was the head of an investigation into the death of Detective Supt Colm Fox, who was the lead investigator into the murder of David Byrne at the Regency Hotel in Dublin. He also had access to the Regency files. The investigator, last I heard, was allowed to leave Ireland. He had a heap of experience in a police force in another country... and... was hired over Zoom...

Just doesn't seem right...

Then there was the former superintendent John Murphy who was investigated on suspicion of aiding the Hutch gang. He was arrested in Midlands Prison, where he is serving a six-and-a-half-year sentence for possessing cannabis. Four other serving gardaí suspected of passing information to Murphy were suspended from the force in 2021.

I'd buy GH is highly intelligent. Not the rest. Don't forget JD said that GH was terrorizing his mother and kids with death threats.

Hutch has a working relationship with the IRA going back to the 1990s. You don't pull that off without being very savvy, fearless, and absolutely ruthless.

JD is manifestly a liar so it doesn’t follow that the claims of death threats were true. If they were true the trial judge accepted that there was a Hutch OCG. The Hutch OCG was said not to be hierarchical so any threats may not have been made on the instructions of a ‘ Mr Big’.

No sorry too convoluted. There’s on the basis of the trial findings a OCG. You know someone the OCG has a link to has a bugged car. Whilst you don’t want to drive around with one of your nephews or JG- if there’s a bugged car you don’t go in it. He if needed could have found someone else low profile. He didn’t know.

There is no Hutch OCG. There were several nephews of GH involved in serious organised crime but, prior to the years leading up to this trial, no journalist or Garda to my knowledge ever made an allegation that GH was actively involved in criminality after, at the very latest, the turn of the millennium, but likely the day after the Clonshaugh robbery.

The guard making these claims about a Hutch OCG should have been forced to produce files showing this thing existed throughout the 2000s/2010s as they claimed.

Every single one of them are pathological liars.

A state witness’s family being threatened by the gang boss he is giving evidence against is like cheese and crackers. They go together.

The Court in April, 2023 accepted there was a Hutch OCG. It was said to be ‘galvanised’ in 2015/6 after murder of Gary Hutch and Regency. It is said to be involved in cigarette smuggling, sale of Benzos and theft/ high jacking at ports. The OCG is described as fluid. Multiple media reports say that Gerry Hutch in all likelihood came back to Ireland after the Regency to try and crisis manage. Other members of Hutch OCG were more immediately involved in Regency before and during. The regency was done by a OCG. You can debate how long they were around and what they did otherwise but it’s an OCG. All of that doesn’t contradict the fact that Gerry Hutch may have been ‘retired’ for 15 years.

If you are not from the you only deserve to be in prison if convicted camp…Gerry Hutch is linked to 2/3 murders from 1980s/1990s

The language of a JD Sports shopper.
