The stepfather of the Kinahan cartel’s top man in Ireland drove a bus in US President Joe Biden’s cavalcade on his four-day visit here, Dublin Live can reveal.
Gardai are now examining a potential security breach after ex-detective David O’Brien, who is married to the mother of gangster Ross Browning and who was mentioned in a recent CAB High Court case, passed vetting for the job. We understand that O’Brien drove dignitaries around in a bus for some of the time Biden was in the country earlier this month.
O’Brien, nicknamed “Rocky”, was working for a private bus company. He was previously a detective garda, attached to the Serious Crime Review team for a time. He wed Browning’s mother Julie Conway in 2020.
