    Not expected at all.

    Cumberton has form, of course, but not exactly some kind of well-known gun for hire.

    I'd say he's just a fall guy, either that or the fella who handed himself in a few days ago is given up quite a few names and has the inside track on a lot of hits.

    He has killed before. I would not be surprised that he could be paid a few grand to do it again. I doubt he is a fall guy. Just not an experienced hand meaning they are just putting it out there for anyone to have a go.

    He killed before in a drunken fight when he was 15 nowhere near a pro killer nor was that killing premeditated.

    Yeah, and every hitman would have a first hit so in a sense he was ahead of some. I mean more I can see him not being the top to feel too much guilt over such things.

    Your imagination is pretty far fetched if you think that drunken killing was a "hit" I dont believe he is a hitman.

    I don't think it was a hit! I said he has form for killing. He's the sort if you get me.

    Four years is all he got for stabbing that man to death ,what a joke.
    If all these boyo s have been got proper sentencing years ago for their 50 to 200 convictions we wouldn't have this problem.
    As far as I am concerned the blame lies with the past governments and the Judiciary.
    They are to blame with their revolving door policy.

    Offer legal aid because he has no source of income. Must have been working for free.

    To be fair it would of being pretty harsh to throw away the key given the circumstances of that particular killing. Most people with that many convictions would be very petty criminals and not to good at what they do I can guarantee nobody has 50 serious convictions.

    He was jailed at the age of 16 for "assault causing harm" to a man who was stabbed at a house party back in 2002, by the looks of things that person did not die despite being stabbed in the heart. So he was not a previous killer.

    Just being pedantic here but it was assault causing serious harm . Wouldnt get a section 3 for stabbing someone in the heart, 16 year old or not!

    But I did see this mentioned on a recent article about an alleged hitman who got away with with stabbing someone to death while a teenager, which would indicate the man did indeed die. I would assume 99% of people would die getting stabbed in the heart!?

    I'll give you the benefit of the doubt here as you "might" be new, but don't speculate on peoples identities using initials, as per mod post at the start of the thread.

    Another of the INLAs main men was arrested in relation to to the murder of Fat Andy Connors during the week Is still in custody it seems.
    Named in the Sunday World today. Seems to be alot of heat on them now, they are appear to be reckless and unorganised. If there is much of a grouping left now that is.

    I think they are just a bunch of rogue ex INLA's who for what ever reason cant or wont come back to society and work normal jobs, and just using this stuff as income. With most of their criminal and dissident histories wouldnt be too easy to go back to being an average Joe. And the INLA never got a retirement pension like alot of Provos did lol

    Mostly just doing protection, security stuff, some extortion apparently but obviously that has escalated. I wouldnt even say they are much of anything probably a group of guys loosely associated with each other. 3-4 of them have been arrested this week alone and one on the run. Im sure some still do the IRSP pickets as they were ex Prisoners, but that doesn't put bread on the table !
