The prosecution in the Diplock-style trial of 69-year-old Winston 'Winkie' Rea claim he was one of those interviewed and is the voice behind confessions to a number of loyalist terror-related crimes. The alleged former Red Hand Commando leader from the Springwell Road, in Groomsport, Co Down, faces 19 charges, including involvement in two murders grounded on the seven Boston tapes in which he was allegedly the speaker identified as 'Interviewee L'.
