Gangland Succession|3: Eamon ‘The Don’ Dunne – Becoming the Kinahans’ problem

Sydney-based police officer Beau Lamarre-Condon handed himself in to the authorities two days after the bloodied belongings of Australian TV star Jesse Baird and his boyfriend Luke Davies were found dumped in a skip. Days later, the officer would lead police to the couple’s bodies, concealed in surfboard bags. As Australia is trying to come to terms with these horrific murders, many ask if the police force missed red flags when they hired Lamarre-Condon?

The TV star, his flight attendant boyfriend and the police officer in the frame for their murder

With PJ Judge taken out, Martin ‘Marlo’ Hyland quickly established himself as the new face of gangland in Ireland. He planned on doing things differently, with a more considered approach to drug trafficking. He drew in other criminals to work as a team. This was a tactic straight out of the Sicilian Mafia's playbook. The cash was rolling in, but the murder of a young Dublin mother would bring too much heat on Hyland.?This episode was originally broadcast in March 2024.

Episode one looks at the terrifying actions of “The Psycho” PJ Judge. This podcast was originally published in March 2024.
