Gerry 'The Monk' Hutch makes stunning statement in prison

Gerry “The Monk” Hutch made a dramatic spectacle in a prison yard - in an apparent effort to stop drugs from coming in.

The 59-year-old took a stand at Dublin’s Wheatfield Prison by making a stunning statement in front of several fellow inmates. It is understood Hutch, who rarely leaves his cell, was flanked by several people who were affiliated with him when he went into the prison yard and gave a warning.

A source said: “It was very dramatic. He came down to the yard with other prisoners who would be loyal to him and warned several people not to get involved in bringing drugs in. Gerry Hutch is something of a celebrity to these prisoners and they took him very seriously.”
