William McGrath had been allowed to act like “a fox in a chicken coop”, court told
Two former residents of the Kincora Boys’ Home suing over allegations a paedophile housemaster was protected from prosecution because of his status as an MI5 agent have won a High Court battle to have their case reinstated.
The two men are seeking damages for the ordeals they endured after being sent to Kincora during the 1970s. Denying liability, the defendants dispute responsibility for any violation in the responsibility of care to those targeted at the children’s home which was finally demolished in 2022. The alleged liability went as far as actively obstructing police officers from investigating and pursuing McGrath specifically due to his role as an MI5 agent, it was contended.
Appealing the Master’s ruling, counsel for Mr Hoy insisted there is enough evidence to arguably show the RUC and security services knew McGrath was carrying out abuse at Kincora while actively running him as an agent. Patrick Lyttle KC, for Mr Hoy, submitted: “A clear reason why they wouldn’t intervene was because they were protecting McGrath.”
