Authorities in the new Irish Free State harassed and murdered Honor
Bright before maligning her as a prostitute and acquitting her
assassin. The newly founded Garda Siochana spread deceitful rumours
and coerced witnesses to conceal Honor's true identity and the real
reason for her death. False evidence, perjury and the silencing of
potential witnesses led to huge public demonstrations, but
newspapers were coerced into printing only authorised stories or
else face the consequences from the Garda or Ministry of Justice.
Find out why political support moved away from the Free State
towards an independent Republic from 1926, and why so many were
killed or fled Ireland in the process. Find out what part William
Butler Yeats and his wife George played.
