Body Found

    My tuppence worth of mad speculation is that it's another Graham O'Dwyer victim. Someone mentioned the body was found near a reservoir (like his previous victim), I don't know the geography of the location but is it possible the body washed up from there? Even if EOH was his first victim - a big if - I find it hard to believe he was out there running free for so long afterwards without doing it again. Wexford isn't a million miles from where he lived. It's maybe possible.

    I brought up the reservoir. It's about a mile away from the scene, and there is no inflowing or outflowing rivers/streams etc to it. It's more of a contained plant as opposed to a natural reservoir (it might actually be a treatment plant of some sort, I pass by it regularly and just assume it's a reservoir :D) So there's no way the body washed up from it.

    Going by the latest updates, it does sound like it was dumped there recently though.

    O'Dwyer's victim wasn't found near a reservoir.

    I suppose because it's an official statement rather than a normal user post.

    Not unusual to pass dead animals in a ditch.

    Decaying human remains have a very distinctive odour, it's nothing like animal flesh.

    She was not. The bag in the article is a backpack presumably belonging to the deceased woman. Also as clear from this article : https://www.independent.ie/irish-news/news/mystery-surrounds-skeletal-remains-of-woman-found-in-roadside-drain-37689542.html , the body was found alongside a road with no evidence of any concealment. So it is likely she was hit by a car, which is of course tragic and a crime, but not it is a premeditated murder.


    Imagine the furore if she was hit by an unaccompanied driver.:eek:

    Another woman's body has been found, this time in Louth, and a man has been arrested.

    bludgeoned with an axe. Polish domestic dispute apparently.
    a busy start to the year for the state pathologist.

    Media reports very varied. Wonder was it a sleeping bag that she was sleeping rough in. Either way, a very sad way to go.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,004 ✭✭✭✭Spanish Eyes


    Well the reports from the backpack say the lady was Italian. Who knows.

    Anyway may she rip.

    Seems to me that if it is the Italian lady in question, seems like she was a free spirit.

    May have been a car accident, where the driver didn't know, or she just had an illness and died.

    Anyway it doesn't seem to be any of the missing women that we know about from reports going back years.

    So that stops that speculation anyway.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,004 ✭✭✭✭Spanish Eyes


    Not to be awful, but there I was thinking rural people know the movements and the lives of everyone around them, but they never tell you about themselves.

    Glad she was found eventually, and may she rest in peace.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,506 ✭✭✭✭castletownman


    They say she could have been there for up to a year, which ties in with the bad snow last March. The drifts up there were huge. Logical to think she could have gotten into difficulty and gone un-noticed initially during that spell, and if the gripe in the ditch was deep enough, could easily remain undetected as long as she did.

    RIP though. Lonely way to go.

    i imagine foxes, rats and other vermin would have got to her fairly quickly. possibly before she had even passed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,004 ✭✭✭✭Spanish Eyes


    Not referring to this incident,

    But there have been a lot of deaths of women due to various methods of killing of late.

    And another in Ardee today. Awful stuff.

    Seems like a reasonable hypothesis. The temperatures dropped relatively quickly and the snow caught a lot of people by surprise; unless you were paying close attention to weather charts you probably wouldn't have seen it. It went from daytime temps of 4 degrees to -2 degrees inside of 24 hours. If you were sleeping outside in a remote area and on foot, you'd be in real trouble.

    She could very easily have died of hypothermia before the heavy snow even hit.

    So sad and condolences to the family whoever it happens to be.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,983 ✭✭✭✭tuxy


    Such as???????? Cryptic rubbish????
    Don't apply for Master Mind :-))))))))

    Why do you think this case is such high profile? There's no foul play suspected.

    And why are you so happy about it.
    Very odd behaviour from the OP.

    people die and/or are killed every day of the week.

    Many women are killed though by a partner/husband. It is fkn rampant. Awful stuff.

    it's not rampant.
    don't be silly.

    Show me the women who have been indicted for murder of their partner/husband so.

    I am not so naive to think it doesn't happen but I doubt it is the norm. Statistically speaking.

    Indeed. They all want to be first to be right, so keep spouting ****e in the hope they get the story correct:rolleyes:

    Trash media without any concern for next of kin

    Wonder was this a Roma woman?

    I recall seeing a Roma woman, plodding the roads in the Ferns/Bunclody/Gorey rural area for a good number of months a while ago, who I always wondered about, why was she always alone/where she was coming from or going to etc.

    I assume she was Roma - dressed like one anyway.

    Rip whoever it was. Sounds like a lonely way to pass.

    About 70 homicides in 2017.

    He said die and/or be killed.

    He was right. People do die every day of the week here. About 30,000 a year.

    anyway in relation to the Co. Louth incident it looks like a mother/son dispute which got out of hand.

    I'm not sure how that would demonstrate that the murdering of women by their partners is rampant.

    At best it can demonstrate that men kill their female partners more often than the other way around but it doesn't show that men killing their partners is rampant unless you change the definition of rampant to "a rare event that's more common than an even rarer event".

    If it wasn't for dogs and their walkers no one would be found.
