    heres the thing, it doesnt really look like it... most are locatable on various social media's, if not offspring then partners or ex partners. My question more relates to the psychological element of carrying around such a secret for such a long period of time. Ok after 38 years you could maybe say that they have mastered any burden in this regard or have learned to compartmentalise. However, it does strike me as though there has to be a burden still, when you consider the fact that the case resurfaces every couple of years and the fascination with same shows no signs of abating. I mean, if you take the fact that the Garda cold case team solved that case in cork recently from 1981, surely its in peoples heads that the above case remains unsolved and YET, I would imagine there are members of the gardai who know what it would take. It also strikes me also how many of such cases there were in the 1980's, Kerry Babies, Shercock Garda station, Bunratty folk park etc etc.

    You'd think the case was solved by Flynn being charged and his admission of manslaughter and even though the prosecution didn't actually get a criminal conviction against him, Flynn's initial admission of voluntary guilt had already tainted the Flynn family ...I suppose the fascination is what triggered the assualt that night
