Liam Brannigan’s recordings were admitted in his murder conspiracy trial at the Special Criminal Court, reported on 30 October 2019.

Brannigan is charged with conspiring to murder Gary Hanley in Ireland between 15 September and 6 November 2017, and has pleaded not guilty.

The court rejected his application to exclude CCTV and covert audio recordings from six cars. It found the recordings lawfully made, valid and sufficiently linked to their sources, while ruling the CCTV material had relevant and probative value.
