Episode 913: The life and crimes of Hughie Irwin

He was once the Kingpin of a major organised crime gang, but now Hughie Irwin is living without running water or electricity in an impoverished and paranoid world.


So who is Irwin and how has he fallen so spectacularly from grace in his native Sligo where he was once a feared force in gangland?


Nicola speaks to Niall Donald about the life and crimes of Irwin.
