The Indo Daily

Thirty years ago, publican Tom Nevin was shot dead as he counted the takings following a busy day at Jack White’s Inn. Initially, the incident appeared to be a robbery gone wrong, but grieving wife Catherine Nevin would eventually emerge as the prime suspect and later come to be known as ‘The Black Widow’. On the first of a two-part Indo Daily special, we look back at how one of Ireland’s most famous criminals came into the spotlight.

There were cries of relief from the family of Natalie McNally yesterday, as the jury convicted Stephen McCullagh of killing his 32-year-old partner in her Lurgan home in December 2022.

Today’s episode of The Indo Daily is brought to us by our sister podcast, Just Between Us with Jennifer Zamparelli. Most will be familiar with the term narcissism. We’ve all heard it, ‘My ex was such a narcissist’, but how much of that is internet language, and how much of it points to something far more serious? This week on Just Between Us, Jennifer is joined by family psychotherapist Richard Hogan to unpack the difference between someone being selfish and someone being truly narcissistic. From love bombing and manipulation to family estrangement and the struggle to leave, it’s a clear, sobering conversation about the patterns that can quietly pull people under.
