Peter Butterly, a 35-year-old dissident republican and father of three, was shot dead in the car park of the Huntsman Inn pub in Gormanston, Co Meath, on 6 March 2013. Dean Evans, 32, pleaded guilty to the murder and was identified as the gunman who fired the three fatal shots, while Kevin Braney, 49, was found guilty by the Special Criminal Court in February 2019. Sharif Kelly, 54, who was to drive the getaway car, was sentenced to life imprisonment in April 2017. The Court of Appeal dismissed Braney's appeal against his murder conviction in June 2026, upholding the admissibility of a KFC surveillance recording.
