Robin ‘the Jackal’ Jackson and the murders of Tullylish
Published 2 years, 3 months ago
Description
Tullylish is a quiet rural parish, in the east of county Down. But during the troubles, it was known for being part of a ‘murder triangle’. From the 1970s to the mid-90s, over 20 people in the area were killed by paramilitary violence, with the UVF commander Robin ‘The Jackal’ Jackson co-ordinating many of these attacks. Ciarán Dunbar is joined by Sunday Life editor Martin Breen and Martin Doyle, author of “Dirty Linen” - a book about his experiences growing up in Tullylish.
