Charges over RUC constable's murder

Michael (Micky) was my best friend. Religion had nothing to do with. He tried so hard to change the reputation of Policing in his beat area. He was gaining the trust of shop owners and the public in his beat area. He was having a very positive attitude from everyone he came into contact with. He had a great personality and was a fab communicator always interested in chatting and meeting the shop owners. He would always nip in and say hello, have a laugh and joke. He was very friendly, maybe too friendly. He let his guard down. Those who knew Michael knew he loved his job and Northern Ireland lost a fantastic Police Officer who only wanted to do good for his community. I felt as though my gut had been torn out when I heard he'd had been killed. He was Michael, no different in or out of uniform, total Gentleman and sorely missed by his friends and family. RIP mate.

so wen it comes to civilian whos is murdered by ruc/british army or a republican murdered by a ruc/british army and theres enuff evidence against them will these ruc/british army men or women be brought to court for murder and if found guilty will they be locked up in maghberry etc be very intresting to see my guess is none of the above will never happen

Next up we may see the brits charged for bloody sunday (DOAH!!)

Hopefully the many murders of members of the security forces are now beginning to be reexamined in the same way as those of civilian victims of the Troubles. Murder is murder and all murders deserve the same attention, the same determination to solve them. Those carrying out cold case reviews have more sophisticated resources at their disposal to help solve the murders than were available many years ago. BTW, I imagine this brave young policeman's religion was mentioned simply because being a Catholic policeman may have made him a more desirable target for certain terrorist organisations. I remember this particular murder very well; I hope it can finally be solved even after all these years.

God love his parents.
