    The Health Service Executive has disclosed that a total of 151 children or young adults who were known to social services have died in the past ten years.

    I'd imagine these are the more disturbing deaths, "natural causes" being taken as unavoidable, at least for the moment
    In a statement this evening the HSE said of the 151 victims, 67 had died of natural causes and 84 had died of 'unnatural causes'.
    Of the 84 unnatural deaths the breakdown for causes of death is as follows:
    • 21 Suicide
    • 10 Unlawful Killing
    • 14 Drug Related
    • 15 Road Traffic Accidents
    • 24 Other Accidents

    (If somebody could edit "die" out of the thread title, it would be appreciated....)

    notice how they release these figures on a Bank holiday Friday afternoon, The conniving b@stard initially dismissed the figure of up to 200 kids.

    How can Harney live with herself presiding over this?
