    Garda are searching a hunting lodge and surrounding lands near Baltinglass Wicklow, the area is near where Larry Murphy lived.
    Has this anything to do with the find in the Dublin mountains yesterday.

    Hah, I haven't read Aertel in years. It reminds me of looking at a pc screen from the early 90s.

    Gardaí say they are carrying out a routine search in a remote area in west Wicklow.

    Around 20 gardaí from the divisional search units are searching a hunting lodge and the surrounding private lands around Baltinglass.

    The area is near the place where convicted rapist Larry Murphy was arrested almost 12 years ago.

    A woman whom he had raped and abducted was found nearby tied up in the boot of his car.

    Murphy was subsequently sentenced to 15 years in prison and released in August of 2010.

    The search is taking place on private land.

    Coincidence maybe but it does seem strange the day after they find another body.

    They are saying that the body yesterday was gang related so larry murphy link may not be there.

    The only remote area the Gardaí routinely search is the top of the filing cabinet for a Twix

    Quit bashing Aertel

    It's fantastic for getting the Lotto numbers and checking the TV listings


    And RTÉ are making a leap by bringing up Larry Murphy. Could well be gangland and have nothing to do with him


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,612 ✭✭✭✭Ash.J.Williams


    Larry Murphy played at full back for Baltinglass Junior B's, a position that requires savage strength, enough strength to subdue and murder a woman.....

    or something....well that's what the Sunday world said back then!!

    Why bother though when you have the internet?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,395 ✭✭✭✭mikemac1


    When you have the remote control in your hand and watching TV are you going to fire up the laptop or phone or computer?

    Why bother when Aertel is in front of you

    I find it shocking that this area wasn`t thoroughtly search before :eek: the guard are sure he is responsible for the murders of some young women and so am I, I knew someone who knew him in prision aparently he`s an entirely different animal to other prisioners. This one guy I want to see burn in hell.

    They didn't look too hard, the search has ended.

    where is murphy these days. last i heard it was amsterdam. did he move on to barcelona ?

    They probably were scouring the area looking for soil disturbances. If there weren't any there's no point in continuing the search.

    So are you thinking they think he`s murdered someone again?! Just riduculous they should have got him and put him away/put him down years ago I would bet a million those other girls bodies are there. Can`t they do some undergroud xray thing - of course not they`re idiots they couldn`t find there arse with a map.

    Maybe their acting on new information? This area may not have been searched before at the time of the original investigation. I'd be slow about calling the gardai idiots too. The area is vast. Finding a body up there is like looking for a needle in a haystack.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,512 ✭✭✭Ellis Dee


    The Aertel news item says it was a routine search. What routine means in this context is not clear.:confused::confused::confused:

    No trust me you have no idea how stupid they are. I have a missing family member and you just wouldn`t believe the level of incompetance we have seen - lossing evidence and files left right and centre, including body parts. Coming up with pure rubbish that lacks basic sense and not carrying out any investigation.

    There are portable x-ray machines that can identify human remains buried under soil. I don't know what approach they used, maybe they mapped out on area and decided to see if there was anything there.

    Does anyone know Murphys whereabouts at the moment?

    He supposedly left the country after his release, I think that was reported at the time. I've no way of verifying this of course.

    I would have thought it was fairly obvious .... when they find a body in the woods they routinely get some of the lads together for some "overtime" for walking around in a field (random field of choice by of superintendent).

    (not meant as garda bashing - just meant as a joke)

    Last I heard Larry Murphy opened a pub on Baggot Street.

    The rumour goes that he had his passport stolen by a spanish hooker, and that was why he had to come back to Dublin till a new one was sorted.

    Multiple cold case files, a suspected serial killer and disappearances stop when he's in prison. As a hunter Murphy knew the area like the back of his hand. Now we learn the Gardai didn't even search the hunting lodge or surrounding area properly. What kind of inept fúckwits are they? Do they possess even a basic level of cop on?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44,080 ✭✭✭✭Micky Dolenz


    I never got this. If you feel a person is a clear danger to a section of the population, you keep them locked up. If the guy wasn't willing to even entertain rehabilitation programs, he should still be sitting in a locked small room.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 19,341 ✭✭✭✭Chucky the tree


    The body found yesterday has been indentified.
    Gardaí have identified the remains of the person found in the Dublin mountains over the weekend as those of James Kenny McDonagh

    I'd say journalists are heartbroken it's nothing to do with Larry Murphy.

    I totally agree, if anyone was caught red handed of a serious crime or attempt of crime they should be locked up for life and not allowed be released. That way people would feel safer that the worlds crazies are not lurking around searching for their next victim!

    So sorry about your relative but you can't judge them all based on one bad experience.

    In relation to the body I in two minds on this. I am glad that man will be returned to his family for burial but there is also a part that hoped for closure for one of the families of the missing women.

    Not one bad experience a litany of errors over 20 years you can`t imagine. They are still doing it. Any chance you read what I said - they lost a body part in there custody can you even imagine!

    Only last night we went to guard to get copy of robbery report - they had the details completely wrong and had left out an extremely important detail.

    I`m just so angry and sick of there incompetance at this stage.
