Unlawful killing | 8

With new legal representation from Belfast firm Phoenix Law for the Stardust families, Attorney General Seamus Woulfe finally announces in 2020 that new inquests should take place. The new hearing finally gets underway in April, 2023, sitting for 122 days over the course of 12 months. The jury would finally deliver an historic unlawful killing verdict on behalf of the Stardust families, ruling that an electrical fault in the hot press caused the blaze. After 43 years, the Irish Government finally issues a State apology to the long-suffering families. The Stardust Tragedy is brought to you by the Irish Sun.

Families spend years fighting for a new inquiry into the disaster but at every turn they hit a brick wall. Finally, something goes their way when the Coffey Report rules out arson at the cause but stops short of ordering a new inquiry, as does the McCartan Report in 2017. But their campaign continues with support from Sinn Fein MEP Lynn Boylan and a trip to the European Parliament for some families as momentum gathers for new inquests.

Offered no counselling or support in the years that followed, survivors and families do what they can to try and cope with the devastating effects of the Stardust. Suicides, depression and addiction grips the community and many who were close to the tragedy. And then a compensation tribunal is set up, which compounds the pain for the families of the 48 dead. The Stardust Victims Committee is set up and loved ones vow that they won’t rest until they see justice. The Stardust Tragedy is brought to you by the Irish Sun.

The Stardust families bury their dead amid heart-breaking scenes, while Taoiseach Charles Haughey appoints eminent judge Ronan Keane to chair a tribunal into the disaster. A rushed inquest wouldn’t look at the cause of the fire and would declare a verdict in line with the medical evidence. And then the Keane Report in June 1982 would rule that one of the patrons inside the Stardust was responsible for the blaze without any evidence and the distraught families are plunged into a new world of despair.

The reality of the tragedy hits home as families surround loved ones in hospitals, while heartbroken mothers and fathers gather at the city morgue as tragic victims start to be identified using dental records and items of jewellery. The authorities conduct a heartless identification process, which they want to end on Sunday evening, February 15, but extend it until 5.30pm on Tuesday. Five of the 44 confirmed dead wouldn’t be identified by this deadline and would remain unidentified for 26 years. Four more would die in hospital in the days and weeks that followed.     The Stardust Tragedy is brought to you by the Irish Sun.
