This is part two of a two part series, so I strongly recommend you listen to part one.This episode, from Northern Ireland, looks at events near Portadown during the period of just a few days at the height of the Troubles. Today the focus is on the quite dreadful Kingsmill Massacre which claimed the life of 10 innocent men.Find out more about the UK True Crime Podcast:https://uktruecrime.comJoin me at Patreon:https://www.patreon.com/UKTrueCrimeJoin me in Sheffield on 7 Septemberhttps://armchairdetectiveswanted.com/eventsJoin the UK True Crime Facebook Group:https://www.facebook.com/groups/UKTrueCrimeBuy my book 'Gone Fishing' about serial killer Angus Sinclair:https://www.amazon.co.uk/Gone-Fishing-Unsolved-Crimes-Sinclair/dp/1914277201Sources:https://cain.ulster.ac.uk/othelem/chron/ch75.htmhttps://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/northern-ireland/reavey-and-odowd-families-seek-answers-40-years-on-from-killings/34332992.htmlhttps://www.irishtimes.com/culture/books/a-ghost-estate-and-an-empty-grave-i-don-t-think-northern-ireland-was-worth-one-life-1.4761318https://web.archive.org/web/20110714013648/http://www.madden-finucane.com/the_firm/cases/echr/2007march06_5.htmhttps://pbs.twimg.com/media/FlSvQ39WAAA1boi?format=jpg&name=largehttps://armaghi.com/news/tandragee-news/well-known-pubs-in-keady-and-gilford-go-on-the-market/237335https://www.codastory.com/rewriting-history/northern-irelands-troubles/ https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=706430024922417&set=a.431211649110924&type=3&locale=en_GB&paipv=0&eav=Afbu3RKWwaZVKhU2eIfwja0svozktmOPQLo5KFputFcOIb_bPA8Vj44yztDUGQ7kqVg&_rdrhttps://www.irishnews.com/news/northern-ireland/government-has-built-a-big-wall-to-hide-the-truth-says-troubles-victim-N5VEWVHXAFHYBBUOVWQ7OIIGLM/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Bar_bombinghttps://republican-news.org/current/news/2015/04/family_mark_tragedy_forty_year.htmlhttps://irishpeaceprocess.blog/2021/04/13/__trashed/https://www.sundayworld.com/crime/irish-crime/sunday-worlds-crime-world-podcast-investigates-one-of-ulsters-bloodiest-24-hours/41222908.htmlhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Troubles_in_Portadownhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reavey_and_O%27Dowd_killingshttps://military-history.fandom.com/wiki/Reavey_and_O%27Dowd_killingshttps://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/5f747d9ce90e0740d0c78473/20200722-FOI_2020_02349_Final_Response_Letter.pdfhttps://military-history.fandom.com/wiki/Kingsmill_massacrehttps://armaghi.com/news/markethill-news/kingsmills-inquest-has-fallen-far-short-of-any-form-of-tangible-justice/239961https://www.westernpeople.ie/ten-murders-at-kingsmill-an-overtly-sectarian-attack-by-ira-coroner-rules_arid-14104.htmlKingsmill massacre – Slugger O'Toole (sluggerotoole.com) Hosted on Acast.
