And when it was over, the justice system let them walk free.
In 1982, 31-year-old Declan Flynn went to Dublin’s Fairview Park, unaware he had been chosen as a target in a wave of violent “queer-bashing” attacks. What followed was a brutal killing that shocked Ireland, but the real outrage came after: a courtroom decision that left the public stunned and furious. This LGBTQ+ true crime podcast episode dives into a case that didn’t just expose violence, it exposed a system that seemed to excuse it. In telling Flynn’s story, we uncover how one death ignited a movement, reshaped queer history in Ireland, and forced a nation to confront its own prejudice.
Hosted by Jordi and Brad, Beers With Queers brings chilling crimes, queer stories, and twisted justice to light, all with a cold one in hand.
Press play, grab a drink, and join us as we uncover the darkest corners of LGBTQ+ history.
