Marian Price set to sue Disney for depicting her as the murderer of Jean McConville

Marian Price has initiated formal legal proceedings by way of pre action correspondence against Disney for their publication, ‘Say Nothing’.

Say Nothing is a 2024 historical drama series published by Disney on their American streaming service Disney+, produced by FX Productions.

The dramatised series is premised upon the 2018 book of the same name, published by Patrick Radden Keefe.

The publication in question depicts our client, Marian Price, as the person to whom was responsible for murdering Ms Jean McConville. Mrs Price has initiated legal proceedings as a result.

Our Mr Peter Corrigan, Solicitor for Ms Price, said:

“Given the context, it is difficult to envisage a more egregious allegation than the one to which has been levelled against our client.

“As someone who has been involved at every level of the related Boston College criminal proceedings, it is clear that the instant allegation is not based on a single iota of evidence.

“Such allegations published on an international scale are not only unjustified, but they are odious insofar as they seek to cause our client immeasurable harm in exchange for greater streaming success.

“Our client has now been forced to initiate legal proceedings to hold Disney to account for their actions.”
