    If that’s the case, that his family knew you would wonder how it was kept such a dark secret for four decades without anyone cracking. I presume the mothers family would have known about the pregnancy. Who had that much power to keep people from talking for this length of time?
    The case is just baffling from start to finish. How could you sleep at night knowing what happened that poor baby? And left unidentified with no name and just go with your life and play happy families.

    " They married, had two sons and lived happily ever after until they were finally identified."

    I thought the couple never married.

    I see your problem. You think the Gardai said nothing about the DNA because that part of the IT report was attributed to a "Garda source". Do you understand that the "Garda source" is the Garda in the press office who just issued the statement and then followed-up with the juicy bits off the record to the IT?

    If you think this IT report is just a re-hash of the Garda statement from a year earlier and has nothing to do with the solicitor's outrageous claims about the DNA a week earlier in the Indo - well, bless you!

    Theres a great series on Netflix at the moment called Life On Mars. A time-travel series. A British cop from the naughties gets transported back to 1973. To see the attitudes of, albeit, English law enforcement, compared to the political correctness of today, may go some way to explain the huge shift in policing over the last 4 decades.

    It's the bally ballyness of it that makes it all seem so bally bally.

    Has any media named the couple, the parents, and I wonder did they ever think of him after marrying and having other kids
