Ex-IRA Member Links Adams to IRA

Former IRA member Shane Paul ODoherty testified in Londons High Court, claiming a photo from a 1971 funeral proves Gerry Adams was part of the organization. ODoherty, who ran letter bomb operations and spent 14 years in prison, insisted no one outside the IRA would wear the distinctive beret Adams was seen with. The testimony comes in a civil lawsuit filed by three British bombing victims against Adams, who they claim led the Provisional IRA and want just one pound in damages. Adams lawyer challenged ODohertys knowledge, but he pushed back with specifics about his time in the IRA. The case continues as victims seek accountability for the IRAs role in the bombings and shed new light on Adams disputed history.
