Episode 282: The sentencing of Regency getaway drivers Jason Bonney and Paul Murphy
Listen now
Description
THE jailing of Regency getaway men Jason Bonney and Paul Murphy for a total of 17.5 years brings to an end one chapter in the gangland story which has enthralled Ireland for more than seven years. With Gerry ‘The Monk’ Hutch settling down to life as a free man it would seem that it should be finally time to move on from the hotel shooting that marked a turning point in organised crime. But still the ripple effects from that day are being felt with the arrest this week of a Kinahan member for the murder of The Monk’s brother Eddie Hutch and the State now facing massive costs for it’s doomed decision to put the veteran criminal on trial for murder. Nicola talks to Niall Donald about encrypted phone messages, about hit-teams facing possible murder charges and about a freak accident with a scorching radiator.
