What really happened to Veronica Guerin, the Irish investigative journalist whose murder shocked Ireland and exposed the brutal world of organized crime in Dublin? On this episode of True Crime with the Sarge, Irish author Michael Sheridan joins me to discuss his acclaimed book, A Letter to Veronica, his account of Guerin’s life, work, murder, and the criminal underworld she was determined to expose. Veronica Guerin was a fearless crime reporter who investigated some of Ireland’s most powerful drug traffickers. Her reporting made her a target, and on June 26, 1996, she was murdered in Dublin in a killing that sent shockwaves throughout Ireland and around the world. Sheridan takes us behind the story of Guerin’s investigation, the criminals she exposed, the events leading up to her assassination, and the enormous impact her murder had on Irish society and law enforcement. The story was later brought to the big screen in the film When the Sky Falls, inspired by Guerin’s life and assassination. In this episode, we discuss: * Who was Veronica Guerin? * Her rise as one of Ireland’s most fearless crime reporters * The Dublin drug trade and organized crime she investigated * The criminals Guerin exposed through her reporting * The threats against her before her murder * What happened on June 26, 1996 * The investigation into Veronica Guerin’s assassination * How her murder changed Ireland’s approach to organized crime * Michael Sheridan’s book A Letter to Veronica * The true story behind When the Sky Falls * What Veronica Guerin’s legacy means for journalists and law enforcement today This is the story of Veronica Guerin, investigative journalism, organized crime, murder, and the fight to expose the truth, told through the perspective of an author who has spent years examining her life and legacy.
