The Milltown massacre

Peter Murray's brother, John, was killed as he attempted to apprehend Michael Stone during the Milltown Cemetery attack on the 16th of March, 1988. His bravery and concern for others was unquestionable. But lost in the tragedy of that day, were the stories of the three that were killed. The Gibraltar incident, Michael Stone himself, and the deaths of two British corporals days later confined the names of Thomas McErlean, John Murray and Caoimhín Mac Bradaigh to a mere footnote. Not to their families and their community though. This week we will hear John Murray's story.
