Twenty years ago this week marked the beginning of one of Ireland's most divisive murder cases. The shooting of John 'Frog' Ward, by the Mayo farmer Padraig Nally. It was a case that inspired a media frenzy, owing in no small part to the fact that the farmer had become the first person to be tried for murder in Mayo in over a century. In today's episode, we revisit the death of John 'Frog' Ward, the polarising reaction to the trial and the significant legal implications it inspired. Host: Tabitha Monahan | Guest: Cróna Esler (author of ‘Unless By Invitation: Crimes That Shocked Ireland’)
