A retired Sergeant, Edward Russell, who was involved in the original investigation, has also claimed that he did not make a key statement about the discovery of the body attributed to him in official files.

The statement made on the day the baby was found - April 4, 1973 - gives a detailed account of how he allegedly removed the body to the mortuary and identified it for the subsequent postmortem.The baby was buried within days of the discovery and the initial murder probe wound up within six weeks with no mother identified.
It was shelved until 1995 when Cynthia Owen came forward and claimed to be the mother of the child. She was able to show officers where the body was discovered and gave them detailed descriptions of what was in the plastic bag the child had been dumped in.
Since then she has given a series of statements to officers detailing the horrific abuse she alleges she suffered at the hands of her father Peter Snr and brothers Peter Jnr and John Joe.
She claimed she had her father's baby aged just 11 and witnessed her mother stabbing the infant with knitting needles before she went with her to dump the body.
In further statements she has alleged that her parents sold her to a paedophile ring that operated in Dalkey who ritually abused her , five of whom are still alive today.
In 2007 an inquest ruled that the murdered baby that died as a result of stab wounds was Noeleen Murphy - the daughter of Cynthia.
Her father, a "penniless" alcoholic, immediately launched an expensive High Court challenge to the decision. It reached court this week with Cynthia's sisters Catherine Stevenson and Esther Roberts taking up the mantle for their dead dad.
Incredibly, both sisters have given statements to Gardai saying they knew about incidents of sexual abuse in the house perpetrated
by their father and brothers. Catherine has said she herself was abused by John Joe. The case was struck out this week when the coroner acknowledged in a statement that the inquest verdict did not implicate Catherine in any wrongdoing.
The Garda file on the Dalkey House of Horrors contains a dossier of claims. Of the six female children raised in the Murphy house, five have said they were either abused or knew about the abuse.

One, a niece, Theresa, who was reared by her grandparents committed suicide in 2005 but left a 32-page note detailing how she was raped along with her brother Micheal, who was found dead more than two years after he disappeared. Another brother Martin also committed suicide in the family home after telling relatives he couldn't cope with the abuse.Stabbed
In a statement issued last night Cynthia said: "I was abused and raped over approximately 6 years by family members and a group of others including members of the Gardai and whose identity is known to the Authorities.

Thanks for trying though.0 -

DALKEY RAPE ALLEGATIONS MADE AGAINST TWO GARDAI
Added on February 20, 2007
Ladies, Gentlemen and Scholars,
The following articles were published on the Voices Emerge website www.voicesemerge.org in July 2005 following the failure by the Gardai to find any evidence of a baby's body buried at the "Dalkey House of Horrors". At that time Cynthia Owen (then referred to as "Niamh") started to make rape allegations against a "top Garda Detective" (as per the Evening Herald) and a retired Garda. Please note that the main allegations are that "Niamh" was sexually abused by Gardai (i.e. she is not just talking about a "cover up").
In our child abuse witch-hunt I have frequently come across references to "Top People" being involved in a child abuse "ring". I assume this is typical paranoiac behaviour.

DALKEY RAPE ALLEGATIONS MADE AGAINST TWO GARDAI
Irish Times, 11 July 2005 by Marie O?Halloran
DETECTIVES ARE EXAMINING NEW RAPE ALLEGATIONS, AGAINST A GARDA AND A RETIRED GARDA, MADE BY THE WOMAN AT THE CENTRE OF THE DALKEY, CO. DUBLIN ABUSE CASE.
THE TWO MEN ARE TO BE INTERVIEWED, FOLLOWING CLAIMS THAT THE WOMAN WHO IS NOW 43, WAS RAPED IN THE 1970S BY THEM. THE ALLEGATIONS ARE UNDERSTOOD TO HAVE BEEN MADE IN THE PAST TWO WEEKS, AND ARE BEING TREATED BY THE GARDAI WITH ?SCEPTICISM?, ACCORDING TO ONE GARDA SOURCE, IN PART BECAUSE OF THE DELAY IN MAKING THE CLAIMS.
According to a Garda spokesperson, ?a lot of information has been put forward? and a number of people have been named by the woman, known as Niamh and all information would be examined.
Gardai have been investigating the deaths of two children in Dalkey some 30 years ago, to whom Niamh allegedly gave birth.
Last week the excavation of the garden of the woman?s former family home failed to find any remains of a child to whom Niamh says she gave birth when she was 14. The remains of another child, to whom she allegedly gave birth aged just 11, were found dumped in a lane in Upper Georges Street, Dun Laoghaire, in 1973. The Dun Laoghaire coroner has agreed to reopen the inquest into the death of that infant, a girl, who had been stabbed up to 14 times with a knitting needle.
Solicitors for Niamh have said she had been attempting to obtain justice for many years and that the State owed her an explanation for the way it had dealt with her allegations of rape as a young girl by her father and brothers. Allegations were also made that a male visitor to the family home had paid to have sex with her. She also alleged witnessing the abuse of other family members and two of her sisters have also made statements alleging abuse.

What further horrors will emerge in the review of the Dalkey baby case?
The verdict on Cynthia Owen's baby is up for a High Court review . . . at some expense, writes Ali Bracken
Peter Murphy snr: seeking to overturn the unanimous verdict reached by an inquest jury
Why is the Dalkey 'House of Horrors' story back in the spotlight?
Because last week, a High Court challenge was initiated aimed at overturning the unanimous verdict of an inquest jury that an unidentified female baby found murdered in a laneway in Dun Laoghaire 34 years ago was the child of Cynthia Owen. Owen named the infant Noleen and claimed it was conceived as a result of sexual abuse in the family home in Dalkey, south Dublin. After listening to harrowing accounts of sodomy, rape and infanticide over a four-day hearing in February, an inquest jury of six men and six women unanimously upheld her claim.
But Owen's father, Peter Murphy snr, and three of her sisters . . . Esther Roberts, Margaret Stokes and Catherine Stevenson . . . maintain that Owen's account of giving birth in the family home to an infant, that she says was subsequently stabbed to death with knitting needles by her now deceased mother, is entirely fictitious.
What's the basis for challenging the inquest's findings?
The four contend that Dublin county coroner Dr Kieran Geraghty was biased in his conduct of the inquest and he wrongly excluded from the jury a number of conflicting statements made by Owen.
In an affidavit submitted to the High Court, Catherine Stevenson states that the coroner should not have proceeded with the inquest in the absence of a body after he was refused permission by the minister for justice to have the body exhumed from the Little Angels plot in Glasnevin cemetery. The affidavit also maintains that the coroner "became emotional" at the conclusion of the inquest.
At the High Court on Monday, Mr Justice Michael Peart granted leave to bring judicial review proceedings against Geraghty aimed at overturning the jury's verdict.
What happens next?
Coroner Dr Kieran Geraghty will begin the process of addressing these claims in the High Court on 12 June. When contacted by the Sunday Tribune recently, Geraghty said it was not the first time his findings have been questioned through a judicial review (it is not an unusual course of action against coroners' findings) but never has this course of legal action been successful. "In this case, all 12 jurors were unanimous in their decision so it would be difficult, " he said.
Cynthia Owen also plans to travel from Britain to attend the High Court proceedings on 12 June. Her legal team will outline why the inquest's findings have no basis to be challenged. It is expected it will strongly refute the claim that Owen's evidence was unreliable and weak and that "retrieved memory syndrome" was used.
Two clinical psychologists who treated Owen told the inquest in February that her story of sexual abuse and murder is "very credible" and "truthful and coherent".
Other notice parties included the garda commissioner and Owen's brother, Peter Murphy jnr, who waived his right to anonymity and faced accusations of rape at the inquest from Owen and another sister, Frances, which he vehemently denied.
While the High Court judicial review begins in June, it would not be unusual for the proceedings to continue for over a year.
How did gardai handle the murder investigation following the discovery of the dead infant in 1973?
The garda handling of the murder investigation in 1973 was explored at the inquest . . . and was highlighted as wholly inadequate.
The green bag that contained the baby was nowhere to be found when gardai reopened the investigation in 1995 after Owen came forward to claim Noleen. Neither were blood samples taken from the infant in 1973 and despite the fact that gardai were investigating a murder, the child was buried in a communal plot at Glasnevin cemetery, meaning it could never be exhumed to forensically prove the child's identity. Much of the original investigation file was also missing.
The night Owen says her late mother Josephine Murphy stabbed her daughter to death before taking her in hand to help dump the body, she says they met two gardai in a squad car. They questioned the woman and her young daughter about what they were doing out in the dead of night, but did not hold the pair up. Why did the 11-year-old Cynthia . . . who said she had just watched her mother kill her baby that night and then attempt to drown her . . . not run into the arms of gardai? It seemed strange to the jury that she'd rather go home to a house where she says she suffered systematic rape on regular basis than seek police help.
Implications hung heavy in the air about why she would fear some members of the gardai more than members of her own family.
Are there more disturbing details from the so-called House of Horrors story that have yet to emerge?
It seems so. Minister for justice Michael McDowell has ordered a full report from An Garda Siochana into the handling of the baby Noleen case, saying he found it "profoundly disturbing". Patrick Gageby SC has been asked to look at all available papers on the death of the baby "to see if the public interest would require taking the matter further". Gageby's inquiry is expected to last a number of months.
At the inquest it was suggested that Peter Murphy snr, a father-of-nine, was 'pimping' his children out to fund his drinking habit. Owen told the inquest that she was forced to perform sexual acts with a man referred to as E, a "family friend", as well as others she wasn't related to.
High court judicial reviews don't come cheap . . . and neither do four days at an inquest hearing with a solicitor and a barrister. The affidavit to overturn the coroner's finding outlines the occupations of Cynthia Owen's father and sisters who are challenging the findings. Peter snr is a retired street cleaner; Catherine Stevenson is a cleaning operative; Margaret Stokes is a housewife and Esther Roberts is a nurses' aide.
The big question really is . . . who exactly is footing the legal bill for a judicial review?

Yes plenty of coverage with the important claims left out!
Heres the book but I havent read it - dont know if the writer included the satanic Garda cult claims!
Cynthia has released a book outlining her story - called"Living with Evil"! http://www.amazon.co.uk/Living-Evil-Cynthia-Owen/dp/0755319044
There are lots of satanic cult claims in Ireland made by the Rape Crisis Centres and CARI BUT the Garda refuse to accept satanic cults are active in Ireland! Now I wonder why they wont!!!!!!!!!!
Also satanic cult claims about the Marc Dutroux case in Belgium but when the parents , The Marschals, of missing belgium girl appeared on the then Gay Byrne show there was no mention of the satanic cult claims!
The pattern repeats itself time and time again!
http://www.sra-ireland.freepress-freespeech.com/MarcDutrouxmurders.htm
Here is the text of the original article in the Sunday Times December 29, 1996 - page 14
"Satanic Links to Belgian Murder Trial by Peter Conradi - "
"Brussels Satanic sects involved in bizarre rites including human sacrifice are being linked by Belgian police with this summer's string of grisly paedophile murders in which at least four children died. Five witnesses came forward last week and described how black masses were held, at which children were killed in front of audiences said to have included prominent members of Belgian society
The above article was published on the 7th March 2005 by CARI - "Children at Risk Ireland" - in a recent article in the Evening Herald 5th November 2007 - titled:
Devil worshipping perverts are abusing children in sick rituals across Ireland, a leading charity claimed!
The evil paedophiles subject their victims to horrible violence and demonic ceremonies before using them as sexual sacrifices for the devil!
Alan Corbett of "Children at Risk in Ireland" said: "We have heard of people operating in groups of perhaps six or seven to commit their crimes and terrorise their victims into keeping quiet.
"We have had a number of cases where sophistocated networks of abusers commit horrible crimes of abuse in an organised way. It is often backed up by a very strange belief system which they believe justifies the abuse and they crimes they perpetrate. People tend not to want to know much about this, but ewhen you work with the cases the details of the abuse is devastating. Traumatised therapists on CARIs help line received several shocking calls from victims of the devil worshipping paedophiles!
"Today we can reveal the twisted groups!- ABUSE: toddlers as young as two!
- SACRIFICE: animals to SATAN as they threaten victims with violence!
- BELIEVE: what they are doing is sanctioned by the devil!
- AVOID: prosecution by threatening violence or death if victims talk of the ceremonies!
There is every chjance the people involved have normal jobs and lead normal lives outside of the crimes!
Tackling the abuse will be discussed in Dublin on Friday 11 the March 2005 at the organisations conference - From The Margins To The Centre!
Mr Corbett said: What we want to do is get people to think about what we can put in place to make sure these kids are protected!"
