SCANNAL – Miami Massacre

July 1975 – The Miami were attacked on their way home from a gig in Banbridge. Three  of the band members – Fran O’Toole, Brian McCoy and Tony Geraghty were shot dead.  It was just 14 months after the Dublin &  Monaghan Bombings.  The Troubles again hit home  south of the border and, as it turned out, the two murderous attacks were connected.  But it would take decades for the scandal of the collusion between State security forces and Loyalist paramilitaries to be brought into the light of day.
