The Podvocate: The Belfast Project

In this episode, Associate Editor Jack Ryan explore the investigation into the murder of Jean McConville, and the broader context of the Troubles in Northern Ireland.

He begins with an exploration of origins of the Troubles, the gruesome conflict that tore Northern Ireland apart and pitted neighbor against neighbor, that ultimately led to the death of thousands. He then moves on to discuss Gerry Adams and Dolores Price, two high-level IRA operatives who would be implicated in the murder of Ms. McConville some 30 years after her disappearance in 1972.
