Marú Inár Measc is a four-part true crime documentary series by Midas Productions for TG4, which shines a light on the effect that fatal crimes have on society, local communities and on the victim’s families as they are left without answers.
"This series could not have been made without the co-operation of each family who shared their story and allowed us the privilege of filming with them", said Midas Productions.
Episode three, which airs on Wednesday, June 1 at 9.45pm, recalls the brutal murders of Jack and Thomas Blaine on July 10 2013.
