In this gripping episode of "Ireland Crimes and Mysteries," host Nules revisits the notorious GUBU case of 1982, a series of events that left an indelible mark on Irish history. The episode explores the chilling crimes of Malcolm MacArthur, whose actions led to a nationwide manhunt and the eventual collapse of the sitting government. Listeners are taken back to the fateful summer when MacArthur's desperate attempts to maintain his lavish lifestyle resulted in the brutal murders of Bridie Gargan and Donal Dunn. The narrative unfolds with vivid detail, from MacArthur's initial plans to rob a bank to his audacious evasion of capture, even as he mingled with high-profile figures, including the Attorney General. As the story progresses, Nules delves into the political scandal that ensued, highlighting the impact on Irish politics and the public's shaken trust. This episode offers a comprehensive look at a case that remains a grotesque, unbelievable, bizarre, and unprecedented chapter in Ireland's criminal history.
