    In fairness to the OP, in the film that was made in 2003, the narrator says at the end:
    "Everyone in the Republic of Ireland remembers where they were when they heard that Veronica Guerin had been murdered on the Naas Road"

    I don't and i was someone in ireland at the time. Should i sue the film company for misleading others? :cool:

    I don't remember either. I guess the movie makers were trying to make it grander than it is.

    Same here, well I knew she was a journalist from the news, but paid no particular attention at the time.

    Yes, I think in an attempt to make people in the US think she was famous, like some sort of crusader or something.
