St Michael’s priest advised Sheridan to join the RUC

A PRIEST and former teacher at St Michael’s College in Enniskillen urged Peter Sheridan to consider a career in policing.

The former PSNI officer and new legacy investigations chief began his career in policing at the age of 16 on the advice of Fr Peadar Livingstone when he was a careers and Irish teacher at the school.
