THE STATE PLAYS WITH MR MCCONVILLE'S GRIEF

It was heart rending listening to Mr McConville interviewed on Radio 4 this morning. The beaten, tortured, threatened and silenced 11 year old still in the grip of terror. Meanwhile the institution, having ignored his mother's murder for decades, now chooses, during an election period, to expose him, his children and his family to further peril. The politicians and police sound so sincere as they speak about the need for truth and justice. However, should that not also involve convictions for those who allowed the murder of a  mother of ten children to remain uninvestigated, who allowed her children to be rent apart and raised to become strangers to each other and who now endanger more children and more innocents through their opportunistic political games.
