Gerry Adams v The BBC

The State of Us

Available for over a year

After four weeks of evidence in Dublin, the jury in Gerry Adams' libel case against the BBC is expected to be sent out to consider its findings soon. He is suing over a 2016 Spotlight programme and online report in which an anonymous source alleged the former Sinn Féin leader sanctioned the murder of a British agent, Denis Donaldson. Mr Adams, 76, denies the claim. Hit subscribe to get our next episode once the jury reaches their verdict. Get in touch: thestateofus@bbc.co.uk
