Gardai don’t suspect foul play in the death of prominent Mid West criminal defence solicitor John Devane.
The body of the 54 year old was discovered by his estranged wife at his home in Ardnacrusha, County Clare yesterday.
A prominent solicitor, Mr Devane had represented all sides in the murderous Limerick feud in which up to 20 men were killed in the late ’90’s and mid 2000s.
The father of 2 also represented the notorious Dundon-McCarthy criminal gang that shot dead Roy Collins and rugby player Shane Geoghan.
He had suffered a number of health problems in recent years after contracting the MRSA hospital superbug.
Tributes will be paid to him at Limerick Courthouse today.
