E99 The Fifth Court.Mark Tottenham and Peter Leonard talk to Mick Clifford, author of the best-selling true-crime book, 'Who killed Una Lynskey?'This is the true story of murder and vengeance, a shattered community and a miscarriage of justice that echoes down the decades.In October 1971 nineteen-year-old Una Lynskey vanished near her home in Co. Meath. In the weeks that followed, and on flimsy grounds, Gardaì identify three young local men as suspects. Within days of her body being found, one of the three young men is beaten to death by members of Una's family. The entire sequence of events is a tragedy in a quiet rural community - the wrong men jailed, no one ever facing justice - and becomes one of the most notorious failures in Irish policing and judicial history.Mick is Special Correspondent for the Irish Examiner newspaper and has worked in print and broadcast journalism for over twenty years. He is the author of three non-fiction books, including A Force for Justice: The Maurice McCabe Story, and two crime novels.We are extremely grateful to our sponsors for this episode, Parte and Associates, solicitors, of Baggot Street, Dublin 4, specialists in Elder Law and Mental Health Law Hosted on Acast.
