Just read that there and was going to start a thread.
Terribly sad and my thoughts and prayers go out to the parents of the children.
God only knows what they are going through right now.
RIP

I'm hearing a horrific story from somebody in the know who lives local, but I won't post here until confirmed. RIP to everyone involved

A third body found, that of a man, at a second crime scene believed to be linked.

Can't help but jump to one conclusion, as sad as it is.

Stheno

Aged eight and ten, and found by one of their siblings.

Sad news, you can come to a conclusion as to what happened if you read between the lines.

I'd offer my opinion on people who decide to take others with them but now is not the time.

Oh my god, those poor boys, their poor parents and siblings I could say a million and one other things but really all you can say is just RIP and all the goodwill in the world for the people involved that they will find the strength to cope with this. I can't think of anything worse.

Has there been a third boy found nearby?
Comments section on facebook has it posted up but I can't link anything, sorry.

I don't think there are words for a situation like this

Jesus Christ....

Is this a case of someone on a random rampage or what? Poor little kids & their poor families

sadie06

I feel sick. I just can't imagine what their parents are going through. RTE reporting they were twins, and that the third person was in their 20's and related to them. Hard not to read between the lines but the facts will emerge.

Very sad, most likely their own father/relation with probable severe mental health issues.

Repress said mother and father were away at time?
Tragic.
Heart goes to all families, school friends and everyone who knew these three unfortunates x

No chance of being a woman no?

No, because it has been reported another man was found.

Older man a step brother according to Limerick Leader

Limerick Leader @Limerick_Leader

It's understood the third body found, a man in his early 20s,was a step-brother of the twin boys age 9, not a full brother as stated earlier

Some places report twin boys, elsewhere brothers aged 8 and 10.

Rip little guys

Those poor parents.

dm1979

my thoughts are with all involved, their poor parents, and extended family, and the wider community. A lot of people will be very affected by whats happened, in particular school friends. Rest in peace boys. so very very sad.

Rabbo

Pascal Sheehy reporting on RTE that the twins were found dead in separate rooms by friends who they were playing with earlier.
The step-brother had just been seen driving away from house and was later found dead near his car.

Horrific story, cant imagine how the parents feel.

Sunnyisland

Terrible tragedy for all concerned, may they all rest in peace.

I've deleted some irrelevant posts, and some which contain unfounded speculations.

Please please remember how sensitive a thread this is. Please only discuss the facts.

I'm not entirely sure if there is a point in having this thread open but we'll leave it for now.

God bless those left behind. Their pain must be unbearable. RIP.

Poor little boys, so sad for the family. RIP

Thoughts and prayers for the family, awful news

So sad rip :-(

dd972

Unspeakable for the people affected, if money was ploughed into mental health support and services it wouldn't prevent every incidence like this but it'd have a marked effect.

So sad RIP

AH doesn't often have more cop on than the tabloids, but the above post is an example of when it does.

The poor little twins....and their only nine years old. And a young man's life at 21 instantly snuffed out.

It is a horrible way to die and my heart goes out to their families. Rest in Peace.

Why Why oh Why?
Poor innocents.

Mod

A couple more irrelevant posts have been deleted.

I don't wish to have to hand out infractions and bans in a thread like this, so please use basic common sense and decency.

Thank you.

Just an unthinkable tragedy. Those poor parents and all the family. Hopefully they find the strength to get through it, although it must seem impossible right now.

RIP to the little guys.

I think he was just referring to the fact that one of the brothers was an adults.

Let's leave it at that though

RIP.
Unimaginable tragedy for that poor family.

Gael23

Something thats almost too awful to believe.
I hope that their parents somehow fond the strength and courage to continue on with life. Although if I was in their position right now I think i'd just want to get it over with and hope the ground opens up and swallows me.
