The Indo Daily: The DJ Carey Story EP 3 - The Con Collapses
"Businessman Noel Tynan loaned DJ Carey €10,000 for what he claimed was life-saving cancer treatment in America. Mr Tynan tells us the moment he realised that the hurling legend had been lying to him about his health. But how did DJ's stories about his health make it into the mainstream media? The Irish Independent's Amy Molloy explains how "that now infamous picture" that apparently shows DJ Carey with a phone charger shoved up his nose, held together with a sticking plaster, shocked the nation."
"Today on the Indo Daily we conclude our DJ Carey series and look at how his lies finally caught up with him, but there would be a last-minute twist to the story that nobody saw coming. Kevin Doyle is joined by the Irish Independent's Amy Molly, Niamh Horan and Colm Hayes, and by the owner of The Celt Bar, Noel Tynan, to look at the fall of DJ Carey and ask, what will be the legacy of this former GAA superstar?"
