Mark Haddock is a former RUC and PSNI Special Branch informant within the UVF. He is the main suspect in the murder of Raymond McCord Jr.[1]
Haddock is the subject of an investigative report by former Police Ombudsman Nuala O'Loan, in which he is described as "informant 1".[2]
The report found that intelligence reports, most of which were rated as 'reliable and probably true' linked Informant 1 to ten murders:
- Mr Peter McTasney who died on 24 February 1991;
- Ms Sharon McKenna who died on 17 January 1993;
- Mr Sean McParland who was attacked on 17 February 1994, and died on 25 February 1994;
- Mr Gary Convie who died on 17 May 1994;
- Mr Eamon Fox who died on 17 May 1994, in the same attack as Mr Gary Convie;
- Mr Gerald Brady who died on 17 June 1994;
- Mr Thomas Sheppard who died on 21 March 1996;
- Mr John Harbinson who died on 18 May 1997;
- Mr Raymond McCord Junior who died on 09 November 1997
- Mr Thomas English who died on 31 October 2000.
Less reliable intelligence suggested links to another five murders.[3]
