Unlawful Killing: Accountability | Series 2 Episode 5

Episode notes

Tommy Nicol died a self-inflicted death in prison whilst on an indeterminate prison sentence (IPP).

Tommy’s sister Donna Mooney has been at the forefront of campaigning for change and challenging the harmful consequences of the IPP sentence, which was abolished back in 2012.

Lucy and Lee speak to Donna about her fight and how accountability for Tommy’s death can only come when all those still serving IPP sentences are resentenced and finally have a release date in sight.
