Dublin Jimmy: The career thug who organised the torture of former Quinn director Kevin Lunney

With 50 convictions to his name at the time of his death, Cyril 'Dublin Jimmy' McGuinness was the puppet master of one of the most sadistic and shocking crimes in Ireland’s recent history: The 2019 kidnapping and torture of businessman Kevin Lunney. McGuinness’ links to the underworld stretched far and wide, and he developed a reputation as a shrewd criminal who was able to get the job done, so long as it was for the right price. Despite his death five years ago, Dublin Jimmy continues to make headlines - the latest in a series of court cases linked to him.
