Even if they have to, you know, send, you know, a grand a month to these guys' wives and girlfriends or whatever to keep everyone quiet.

And would they if they're honourable?

And even the four guys, like in, say, the cell that Gary Monks was part of, I mean, they more or less arrived in North Kerry separately to some extent.

No, he did travel, I think, with Costolo, but the other two guys arrived in separately.

So, you know, there was a real kind of...

You know, it was a deliberate thing to keep everyone in the dark as far as possible.

I mean, they launched from Meganine Pier and went out, collected the drugs, dropped them to another location.

They're not sure where.

It could easily have been in County Clare, the other side of the estuary.

It'd be quite easy for them to have done that or somewhere else in North Kerry.

And then they landed back then without the cocaine back in Megan Inn Pier.

Which is where they were arrested.

Which is where they were arrested because in the days beforehand, they had actually kind of caused a bit of suspicion.

And the guards had, I think, put in an operation, you know, when they were alerted to this at four in the morning.

They more or less caught them red-handed as they came back in and seized all the phones.

And it was on those phones that all the evidence really was based.

And there was kind of the back and forth between the guys on the boat.

They were kind of, you know, they were basically having to kind of show, I suppose, proof that the mission, that the assignment was continuing.

So they were having to send these pictures back to the controllers.

and to each other.
