The murder of Robert McCartney and the IRA cover up


Listen Later

Robert McCartney was murdered by members of the IRA in January 2005; he died after being stabbed in the street outside a bar in Belfast.  Like many other murders, the IRA might have hoped that it would eventually blow over, it did not, it became an international news story.  Two of his sisters tell Suzanne Breen what they thought of the subsequent criminal trials, and if they think they were used by politicians.
