A rewrite is needed to remove POV, opinions, and a subjective tone. Paul Klenk 18:55, 28 August 2005 (UTC) If that is the case, then the entire reportage on modern day irish criminality needs a new approach. The esence of CAB is that it operates in a gray zone. The tensions between the failure of the criminal courts system, public opinion or oprobium and even in some cases open admiration for people like Hutch ensure that his life and works will only ever be played out in the shadows. This is as good as it gets, sad to say. Paddy Hegarty.

I would object to the use of inverted commas around "works" in 'and "works" for a living as a limo driver'. This is hardly the kind of thing you'd see in an encyclopedia.83.70.254.134 18:46, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

I have added citations etc and some extra facts from newscuttings and generally tried to Wikify the article. I have left in the existing references to "His gang was said to have amassed an estimated IR£40 million from a series of bank robberies, jewellery heists, and fraud scams spanning almost 8 years." although I couldn't immediately find any source for this statement. --User:Thejohnfleming 00:06 21 December 2007 (UTC)
