Michael Lynn - The Fugitive
Season 1
Overview
One of the loose ends that still exists with the Michael Lynn story is the question of what happened with the money. Virtually none of which has been recovered. When solicitor Michael Lynn fled Ireland in December 2007, he'd clocked up €80m in loans from high street banks, much of them fraudulently secured via multiple mortgages. And he owed another €12m to private investors who had paid out for unbuilt apartments abroad.
