Murderer Stephen McCullagh has been aptly described as “a monster hiding in plain sight”.

A week on from his conviction there has been a lot of reaction to the the nerd-culture YouTuber’s conviction of murdering Natalie McNally.

He denied the killing, but the jury unanimously found him guilty in a matter of hours. He has yet to be given his tariff, but Natalie’s family says he should never be let out.

They say he is simply “too dangerous to let out on the street”.

Meanwhile, the Sunday Life has revealed that a film made by McNally has a student chillingly foretold the murder and how he pretended to be one of our journalists to find out what evidence the cops had on him.

The Sunday Life’s Angela Davison joins Ciarán Dunbar with some of the stories which could not be told whilst the trial was ongoing and what has emerged since McCullagh’s conviction.

This week they heard more on how police dealt with CCTV footage of the missing teenager and how his school books were found in a Belfast flat.

A police officer also revealed that he was briefed before he spoke to the inquest.

‘How I stumbled on Stormont’s new policy of extreme censorship - which means we’ll understand NI’s past less fully’.

That was the stark headline on a recent comment piece from my colleague Sam McBride – the Belfast Telegraph’s Northern Ireland editor.

He discovered the unannounced policy whilst exploring declassified files in London - a policy which has been used to cover-up official attitudes to the Famine.

Sam McBride joins Ciarán Dunbar to explain the story behind the headline.
