The level of state collusion uncovered by a report into the murder of Belfast solicitor Pat Finucane is "shocking", Prime Minister David Cameron has said. However, it concluded that there was "no overarching state conspiracy". Sir Desmond de Silva's review confirmed that agents of the state were involved in the 1989 killing and that it should have been prevented.

Not agreeing with collusion but this guy got murderers out of jail on loopholes so that they could continue to murder. He was the IRAs favourite solicitor and is not worthy of losing any sleep over.

Please provide some back up to this statement.
And make sure what you provide (if you provide anything at all) clearly differs from what any other lawyer representing a defendant would do.
Thanks

One link from the Telepgraph newspaper website? Not really providing concrete back-up now are we...
Eagerly awaiting other cited links from reports showing he did more than represent clients...

Shame you don't know what your talking about. Finucanes Republican connections are common knowledge in Northern Ireland, normal lawyers don't hang about with the likes of Adams and McGuinness.
