Episode 1: The Kinahans begins its story in Dublin of the late 1970’s as heroin burst onto the scene. The Dunne’s, Ireland’s leading crime group, were responsible for much of the devastation the new opioid had brought across Dublin City. It wasn’t long before a young petty criminal from Phibsboro wanted a slice of the pie. His name was Christy Kinahan.

In February 2016, a six person hit-team burst through the doors of a boxing weigh-in at Dublin's Regency Hotel. There, a Kinahan Cartel lieutenant named David Byrne was brutally murdered, as other senior members of the gang made a lucky escape.  The attack took place in front of a room packed full of boxers, journalists, civilians, and young children. From that moment on, Irish gangland would never be the same again.
