As he locked up Bellaghy Wolfe Tone GAA Club in May 1997, Sean Brown was murdered by loyalist gunmen.


The sense of injustice has deepened since the British Government passed the Legacy Act last year.


This week, a High Court judge Mr Justice Kinney was so appalled by the behaviour of the state that he pulled the plug on the inquest and recommended a public inquiry. This on the day the inquest was told that surveillance of a leading suspect had mysteriously been suspended on the day of the murder.


Among those present at the inquest was the new GAA president Jarlath Burns, a man who has embraced his Protestant neighbours, vocally supported the PSNI before it was popular and is as happy at Windsor park as he is in Croke park (unless Armagh are playing).


On Free State, Joe and Dion look at the case and the relentless search for justice.


Free State with Joe Brolly and Dion Fanning is a Gold Hat Production in association with SwanMcG.
