Above are the only images I can find of 'Michael Ryan.'
The event that has come to be known as the "Hungerford massacre" took place in Hungerford, Berkshire, England, on 19 August 1987. The killer, 27-year-old Michael Robert Ryan, armed with two semi-automatic rifles and a handgun, shot and killed sixteen people including his mother, and wounded fifteen others, before killing himself. A report on this incident was commissioned by the Home Secretary, Douglas Hurd, from the Chief Constable of Thames Valley Police, Colin Smith. Here is Smith:
Sir Colin Smith (he was later knighted) was the chief constable of Thames Valley police from 1985 to 1991 and retired as an inspector of constabulary in 2000. While he served in the post since 1991, inspecting the Royal Ulster Constabulary was one of his responsibilities.
The link to a BBC site, below, shows how he was recruited in 2002 to join Sir John Chilcot, a former senior civil servant in Northern Ireland, to run an independent review into the security breach at Belfast's main police centre.

I'm not saying Chilcott was connected to Hungerford, but the career background of Smith and the company he keeps is very enlightening. Chilcott was the Permanent Under Secretary of State in the Northern Ireland Office from 1990 to 1997. He also served in the Home Office and the Cabinet Office. He was a key figure in secret contacts with the IRA before the 1994 ceasefire. He was a member of the Independent Commission on the Voting System in 1997-8. In 1999 he was appointed by the prime minister as staff counsellor for the security and intelligence services and works part time in the Cabinet Office in that role. He also worked as an adviser to security employees who had problems with the nature of their work or personal grievances.
Purpose of the psyop
Wikipedia makes a point of describing Hungerford as an event that ranks "along with the 1996 Dunblane massacre and the 2010 Cumbria shootings, one of the worst criminal atrocities involving firearms in British history."
The massacre was used as the reasoning to pass the Firearms (Amendment) Act 1988, which banned the ownership of semi-automatic centre-fire rifles and restricted the use of shotguns with a magazine capacity of more than three rounds. The Hungerford Report had demonstrated that Ryan's collection of weapons was legally licensed.
Mummy's boy
This really makes me laugh. Yet again, as is SO common in these psyops, we have a psychotic killer branded as a 'mummy's boy.' The implication being that it could be anyone.
At the time of the shooting, Ryan apparently lived with his mother, Dorothy, a dinner lady at the local primary school. There was extensive press comment on this, suggesting the relationship was 'unhealthy' and that Ryan was "spoiled" by his mother. A famous Guardian headline applied the "mummy's boy" label to Ryan.
