On March 30, a man in his 40s just got charged with the 1986 murder of Dennis Donaldson, a former sin-fain official gunned down. In County, Donagall, back in April 2006. Donaldson was 55 when he died. Just months after dropping a bombshell, he'd been a secret agent for police in MI5 for over two decades, infiltrating the IRR. Meanwhile, Antoine Duffy, who's got no fixed address, also faces charges for trying to kill another guy in the same county, back in November 2. 2007, plus holding a shotgun and ammo. He showed up in Dublin Special Criminal Court this week after cops nabbed him a caseman aero-drome, fresh-off extradition from Scotland on A. European arrest warrant. Duffy's locked up till his next in-person hearing on April 13, with legal aid approved, so this cold case from the trouble's era might finally see some real movement. That's the story for today. Global News Today, driven by AI. I'm Corey with The Story.
