I can't get over the amount of attention this case is getting. Sure there was an Irishman murdered in Boston last year, no President attended his funeral nor was he related to a GAA manager.

As far as I'm aware there had been absolutely no suggestion or evidence that the killing may have been sexually motivated. They were a young couple on honeymoon after all, having a sex guide doesn't even seem to be all that out of the ordinary.

The waste every day, the searching of the employees every morning and evening in and out of the place, the wages they got (compared to what you were paying!) was just awful. Never again could I go there and see how a guy had to run after you to rake the beach to make it look pristine and get a couple of dollars a week.....Oh God, it was just wrong. I know they need the money and have a job but the exploitation of the whole scenario was awful.

Very hospitable folk, would do anything for you and excellent workers. The media claim that foreign nationals are better workers than the Irish, but the only two nationalities it rings true for, are the Mauritians and Chinese. In short, a great bunch of lads and I regret turning down the opportunity to go to a pals wedding there. If random barbaric acts of violence put everyone off visiting Ireland, we would have very few tourists.

Instead some of them speculate that two Irish people committed the murder and then ran off into the night.
A booklet relating to sexual matters in Michaela McAreavey's hotel room was an insert from a women's magazine.
