Ireland's Mr Big - Jonathan Gill

The Irish have a propensity to protect the identities of their biggest gangsters until such time as the charges become serious. Poster boy is Jonathan Gill, a man of large Dublin underworld reputation who, for many years, was known to the Irish public only as 'Mr. Big.' Last month it was reported Martin ‘Viper’ Foley and Mr. Big had joined forces as debt collectors.

In July, Foley pleaded guilty after 'Viper Debt Recovery' threatened to slit a man’s throat over a €4,000 debt.

‘The Viper’ has more than 40 convictions for offences including assault, robbery and possession of weapons. He has been the subject of several hit attempts, including in Dublin in January 2008 by the Kinahan cartel. While he has dodged major convictions, Jonathan Gill is seen by many to be among the top criminals in Ireland. ___________________________

Jonathan Gill - Mr. Big

In 2020 the Irish press referred to Jonathan Gill as 'Mr. Big' exclusively. Gill, like Glen Ward 'Mr. Flashy', was warned his life is in danger. This likely explains Irish censorship. Every gangster has death threats. Irish authorities ought not give their worst gangsters a pass. Gardai suspect a Dublin man who transported over €1m in proceeds of crime was working as a ‘gillie’ for the gang led by the north Dublin crime boss Mr Big. Gillie is officially defined as 1 · a male attendant on a Scottish Highland chief ; 2 · a fishing and hunting guide ; 3 · a shoe with a low top and decorative lacing
