Well, from his family.

But I think one that stood out to me was... I think it was his grandmother said he used to collect money for Ethiopia, you know, when the...

The troker box.

The troker box.

So he wasn't, you know, he wasn't a bad lad.

Yeah.

And that once he gets this out of the way, he'll return to his good roots.

And then you'll come back and turn a new leaf.

That's what grabbed our attention.

Kind of a cold case story that we went back to.

The reason why it was back in the headlines was this guy Thomas Haig had died Manchester Strangeway Prison on March 15th.

He was only in his... Yeah, he was just 40, this guy.

But he had spent the last...

15 odd years in jail over the double murder real callous brutal shotgun murder of two men world boxer Brett Flournoy I'm going to pronounce his name he was 31 at the time David Griffiths who was 35 at the time

Guy who died in prison had maintained that these two were enforcers for the IRA and that they were putting him under pressure to collect a drugs debt and that he had no choice, I suppose, but to brutally murder both men.

Yeah.

And that was never proved.

That was just his story.

But I think when I was researching the story, I found stories that we would have written, something the Independent would have written at the time, saying that the police at the time said there were no organisational links between the IRA and drug gangs, in this case in Liverpool, which was Haig's claim that it was a drug gang run by the IRA.

our sources said that just did not exist on an organisational level.
