My colleagues in some parts of the media do promote him to head of the nodding squad.
He may have been head of the squad.
I'm not satisfied he was.
As a matter of fact, the record doesn't say.
Records do not list him as head.
He was certainly a very accomplished, if I can put it that way,
interrogator in the sense that he got results he showed that particularly his art of deploying psychological menace was pretty effective in getting confessions but I don't know that he was actually the head of the unit but certainly a very important one as far as his recruitment was concerned he
you know, there were, there were parallels with, with Nelson.
He, uh, well, let me go back to the record.
What the, as I understand it, what the record shows is that the claims anyway, is that he was, um, tired that we're talking now, autumn of 78, 1978 conflict had been going almost a decade.
He, uh, it was said, um, saw no future for the, uh, for the, for the IRAs, uh, arm campaign.
Um,
And he also liked money.
The army were very good payers.
The record says that he wanted to do his bit to bring the conflict to an end.
I don't think altruism was the driving motivation in his case.
I think it was power, as a matter of fact.
I think he was a man who had had quite a lot of respect within the IRA and
and wanted to continue in a senior role where he had real power.
Well, you know, there is a logic to this, isn't there?
