Morning Cup of Murder

July 12th: Quinn Brothers Killed (1998) Some murders are motivated by greed. Some by anger. And some by revenge. But there are some that are motivated by history making events. On July 12th 1998 a bomb was thrown into a home in the midst of something called The Troubles. A bomb that took the lives of 3 completely innocent individuals caught in the middle of a history making conflict. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quinn_brothers%27_killings [https://www.google.com/url?q=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quinn_brothers%2527_killings&sa=D&source=docs&ust=1751822168554702&usg=AOvVaw3GtiBaDJL-K9rA9RzCFpMM], https://www.nytimes.com/1998/07/13/world/3-catholic-brothers-killed-in-fire-stunning-ulster-and-raising-fears.html [https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.nytimes.com/1998/07/13/world/3-catholic-brothers-killed-in-fire-stunning-ulster-and-raising-fears.html&sa=D&source=docs&ust=1751822168554731&usg=AOvVaw1qOd1kW0UzqjOZWCk98gRL], https://www.sundayworld.com/news/northern-ireland-news/garfield-gilmour-cased-the-murder-scene-twice-before-killing-three-quinn-brothers-in-co-antrim/41120119.html [https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.sundayworld.com/news/northern-ireland-news/garfield-gilmour-cased-the-murder-scene-twice-before-killing-three-quinn-brothers-in-co-antrim/41120119.html&sa=D&source=docs&ust=1751822168554768&usg=AOvVaw2fSFoy7Z5bsgrxf3OeiG5L], https://www.belfastlive.co.uk/news/northern-ireland/drumcree-linked-murder-three-quinn-25849412 [https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.belfastlive.co.uk/news/northern-ireland/drumcree-linked-murder-three-quinn-25849412&sa=D&source=docs&ust=1751822168554791&usg=AOvVaw2Xj9hkCsUwKRLyIFFn6e0u], https://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/northern-ireland/raymond-parke-uvf-suspect-in-brutal-murder-of-quinn-boys-is-found-drowned/38657059.html [https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/northern-ireland/raymond-parke-uvf-suspect-in-brutal-murder-of-quinn-boys-is-found-drowned/38657059.html&sa=D&source=docs&ust=1751822168554815&usg=AOvVaw2azjyIGmaiOobxX1rCTs9E], https://www.sundayworld.com/news/northern-ireland-news/dad-of-quinn-brother-killed-in-horror-uvf-firebombing-returns-to-scene-of-tragedy/a1401253871.html [https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.sundayworld.com/news/northern-ireland-news/dad-of-quinn-brother-killed-in-horror-uvf-firebombing-returns-to-scene-of-tragedy/a1401253871.html&sa=D&source=docs&ust=1751822168554835&usg=AOvVaw1ftaTA_NFypMXicPCxVlgq], https://www.irishtimes.com/news/three-life-terms-for-murder-of-quinn-brothers-1.244508 [https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.irishtimes.com/news/three-life-terms-for-murder-of-quinn-brothers-1.244508&sa=D&source=docs&ust=1751822168554854&usg=AOvVaw3yUBdinydWVQCdF-SlzRal], https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/suspect-murder-three-young-brothers-20807115 [https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/suspect-murder-three-young-brothers-20807115&sa=D&source=docs&ust=1751822168554870&usg=AOvVaw3WItEckp7g2i1iWrmkfcJg] Learn more about your ad choices.
