McGuinness forgot deathbed meeting with Fr James Chesney in Donegal

inn Fein’s Martin McGuinness has said he forgot a deathbed conversation he had with the priest suspected of being involved in the 1972 Claudy bombing.
Mr McGuinness told the BBC in 2002 he had never met Fr James Chesney, but yesterday he revealed they had met.
The Deputy First Minister said there was no suspicion about Fr Chesney in 2002 and only recalled the meeting in recent years when further allegations emerged.
Mary Hamilton, who suffered shrapnel injuries in the terrorist attack, said says shes finds it hard to believe that Martin McGuinness would forget his meeting with Fr Chesney:
