    I hear the prime suspect for the kidnapping is some Puerto Rican guy.

    Well this is bizzare...surely I hadn't even heard he was missing!

    Maybe his family thought he'd absconded to the Cayman Islands or something so didn't look too hard for him when he disappeared?

    Be very interesting to see how this plays out....

    What makes it even more more suspicious is that there is no Mulligar hospital.

    I cant believe this needs to be spelled out but here we go: it was a joke about a spelling mistake.

    Craziest story i've heard in ages. Hope it doesn't disappear and we all get to find out what happened!

    A PROPERTY developer missing from his home for the past eight months is being treated in hospital after being found disorientated and starving at the side of a rural road on a road near Ballinamore, Co Leitrim, late on Tuesday night.
    Poor fellow if he really was as extremely thin etc as reports suggest. Sounds a genuine case.

    wonder if he had a nervous breakdown or was kidnapped...? Very odd, but hope he's doing better after some hospital treatment etc.

    This sounds like he got way, way over his head.

    Those friendly business men can turn pretty nasty when they're losing money.

    Yes, I am totally taking leaps of logic.

    Edit: Anybody thinking of Sean Quinn right now? (Not that I want that to happen)

    I'm going with kidnapped for ransom. Money has been paid and released.

    It's bad enough they kidnapped the poor man and starved him but to drop him off in Leitrim? The monsters.

    Don't you people watch breaking bad - he's quite obviously a meth cook trying to keep it hush hush from the missus.:D

    Woah wait a minute, Heisenberg is cooking meth? I thought he was cooking blue ice for children's parties all this time!?

    Last thing he remembers is going down on his wife.

    Sounds like he had some sort of nervous breakdown.

    Could easily happen especially if he got ruined financially.

    Sounds like the Ian Beale storyline from EastEnders.

    No truth in the rumor he was staying in the Occupy Dublin camp for a while?

    Well the family will be overcome with relief, they really must have thought they'd never see him again, but what kind of a husband and father they are getting back is another matter.

    He's probably not the man he once was:D

    There's something slightly dodgy about this. Was he in financial trouble?

    anyone else disappointed that it wasn't a software developer / hacker dude ?

    I was even trying to figure which product was delayed because they were missing

    The thing i found extremely strange when i read the story was that he was reported missing 8 months ago, but there was never an appeal made to find him. Seems kinda odd.

    Seeing as we all want to promote mental health awareness and put a stop to it being a taboo subject, maybe we shouldn't joke about this story.
    All we cab take is his word at the moment and if he has been missing, is starving and has no recollection of the past 8 months I'm guessing the poor man has suffered some form of breakdown.
