Martin "The Viper" Foley (born 24 November 1952) is a well-known Irish criminal.
 He rose from a street drug dealer to become an associate of Martin Cahill.
 Foley has 40 convictions.
 He is considered a key figure in the McCormack-Foley crime family from Crumlin, Dublin.
 He has had several attempts on his life including being shot on five different occasions, including most recently on 26 January 2008.
 Foley was shot a number of times outside the Carlisle gym on Kimmage Road West, South Dublin.
 The men behind the attack were involved in a separate gun feud, which has since run its course because the main players are either all dead or in prison.
 Foley has kept a lower profile since then.
The Concerned Criminals Action Committee (CCAC) was a group formed by members of the Martin Cahill criminal gang in Dublin in the 1980s, as a foil to the Concerned Parents Against Drugs (CPAD) group.
 CPAD formed in February 1984, to address drug activity in the community through citizen patrols and checkpoints.
 Members of the CCAC stated that they were not organising in support of the drug trade, but rather because of concerns that CPAD was reporting other criminal activities to the Garda as well, and interfering with non-drug criminal activities.
