Gilligan: The Mob Boss Who Changed the Face of Organized Crime

John Gilligan is one of the most notorious and hated criminal figures in Irish history. His name is indelibly etched in the national psyche a quarter of a century after he crossed the line to organise the execution of the fearless, high-profile journalist Veronica Guerin. Gilligan’s motive for the assassination was, in the words of the prosecution at a subsequent murder trial, ‘the necessity of having to protect an evil empire’. At the time Gilligan was one of the most powerful and feared godfathers in the country who controlled a colossal drugs empire and the underworld’s most dangerous mob.
