WASHINGTON: An appeal to keep the interviews with former Irish Republican Army Member from Federal reach was turned down by the Supreme Court of the United States. Federal Officials seek advancement in Netherland police investigation of the IRA’s 1972 killing of a Belfast woman.
Boston College sought to dismantle a lower court ruling ordering the College to provide Justice Department with portions of interviews conducted and recorded with a convicted IRA car bomber Dolours Price.
Price, (1951-2013) was interviewed between 2001 and 2006, along with several other former IRA members, during The Belfast Project, which was designed to be an oral history of Northern Ireland’s Troubles resource for journalists, scholars and historians studying the long conflict in Northern Ireland.
Federal Officers would be handing over the recordings to Netherlands Police after the last hearing subject to another Boston College hearing yet to be heard.
