Mark Fulton Biography

Mark Fulton is one of the most popular and richest Association Football Player who was born on September 16, 1959 in Johnstone, Scotland, United Kingdom. After the start of the Troubles in the latter half of the 1960s, Fulton’s dad joined the Ulster Defence Association (UDA). Based on the report of reporter Susan McKay, senior Ulster Volunteer Force (UVF) members Robin “the Jackal” Jackson and Harris Boyle were frequent visitors to the Fulton residence in the 1970s early on. Jackson was one of the suspected leaders of the group who executed in 1974 the Dublin car bombings, was made the UVF’s commander Mid-Ulster Brigade in July 1975. The next day, Boyle was blown up after he threw a bomb at Miami’s bus following the group was stopped at an untrue checkpoint by UVF gunmen. Three band members were killed.

Fulton was accused to journalist Susan McKay to have carried out a dozen murders of sectarians during the 1990s. He was also suspected of having orchestrated the murder of an Catholic legal professional, Rosemary Nelson, in 1999 when he was taken in jail on compassionate leave. Then, in 2002, the man was dead in his cell in Maghaberry Prison, an apparent suicide. He was on trial, for conspiracy charges to murder a member of an organisation of loyalists that was a rival to the paramilitary group. When he died, passing away, Fulton was married with two children.

The Mid-Ulster Brigade called themselves the “Brat Pack”, which journalist Martin O’Hagan of the Sunday World altered to “Rat Pack”. After the nickname of “King Rat” was given to Wright by local Ulster Defence Association (UDA) commander Robert John Kerr as a form of pub bantering, O’Hagan took to describing Wright by that term. This soubriquet was thereafter used by the media, much to Wright’s fury. This led him to issue threats against O’Hagan and all journalists who worked for the newspaper. The unit initially welcomed the Combined Loyalist Military Command ceasefire in October 1994; however, things were to change drastically over the next few years.

Following the order given in August 1996 by the UVF’s Brigade Staff (Belfast leadership) for Wright and the Portadown unit of the Mid-Ulster Brigade to stand down, Fulton remained loyal to Wright and defied the order. This came after the Mid-Ulster UVF’s killing of a Catholic taxi driver, Michael McGoldrick, while the UVF were on ceasefire. Fulton was close to Alex Kerr, the sometime South Befast brigadier of the Ulster Defence Association who had become an ally of Wright during the Drumcree conflict and had been expelled by the UDA at the same time Wright was removed from the UVF. After Wright defied a UVF order to leave Northern Ireland, he formed the breakaway Loyalist Volunteer Force (LVF), taking the members of the officially-disbanded Portadown unit with him, including Fulton. Fulton acted as an adviser to Kerr during the emergence of the LVF as a separate group and told both Kerr and Wright that the LVF should seek a closer relationship with the UDA in order to more fully oppose the UVF.

In the beginning of 1990, Billy Wright, also from Portadown assumed command in the UVF Mid-Ulster Brigade from Jackson. It was the Mid-Ulster Brigade, founded in 1972 by its leader, Billy Hanna, operated predominantly within Portadown and the Lurgan and Portadown regions. Fulton was soon Wright’s most close partner and right-hand person and was a man with the “extreme fixation and obsession over Wright” He even had a photo of Wright tattooed on his chest.

He was one of grandchildren of Jim Fulton, a former British soldier who was an employee of a window cleaning service. Her mother, Sylvia (nee Prentice) was a descendent of a wealthy family of automobile dealers. Fulton was raised in the Protestant working class Killycomain region. A friend from childhood said of Fulton as “a lovely, sweet wee boy”.

Fulton was believed to have been the culprit in 12 massacres that were allegedly committed by sectarian groups during the 1990s. He also is believed to have been involved in many other incidents. His victims were frequently interrogated regarding their religion prior to their murders, and at times, they were executed in the presence of their family members. He was brutal and had an extremely fast temper. Wright is the sole one who could control Fulton. An Royal Ulster Constabulary (RUC) detective who knew both them told him that when they were stopped by police in the 90s, Wright was “coolness personified” and Fulton was a rager, shout and threaten.

Fulton left school early and promptly joined the Mid-Ulster UVF, being sworn in at the age of 15. According to Sean McPhilemy, Fulton’s early activity included being part of the UVF gang that opened fire on a Craigavon mobile sweetshop on 28 March 1991, killing two teenaged girls and one man, all Catholics.
