    **** sake guys. What's going on here? Bodies chopped up in Cork/Dublin. Gangs fighting all over the shop some poor bloke knifed in the neck. Are we going mad as a society or what.

    I know what you mean, was just thinking the same. The latest run of news is thoroughly depressing. It really is heartbreaking.

    Could be a gas leak, why assume murder?
    Per RTE
    At this stage, gardaí do not believe the children died of natural causes, but will await the outcome of the post mortems to determine the cause of their deaths.

    It says there was a note left.
    Don't think you'd leave a note if there was a gas leak.

    Tragic stuff. RIP to those young kids.

    Similarly you wouldn't say that you're waiting for the post mortem to determine if it was a natural cause if it was an obviously violent end.

    Terrible news.

    I live in a lovely quiet rural area. Ireland is still a lovely peaceful society. Unfortunately, this sort of thing is part and parcel of modern stressful society where the cost of living for families is dreadful.

    Not sure we can say this has anything got to do with the cost of living yet.

    Ah Jesus. Bless them all. We can be horrified by the deaths of three kids without speculating on the cause, which could be non violent too and I hope that is the case. We shall see.

    Tragic, so young and vulnerable.

    Very tough on the emergency staff too, especially those with small kids.

    I have to agree with this. Things have been on a downward spiral this last couple of years

    You can read about gangland shootings all day but the second it's about children it just hits you like a ton of bricks. So sad

    [QUOTE=Kira Blue Warlock;112347761]Wild speculation at this point.[/QUOTE]


    Irish Times:

    "The children and the woman are related. It is understood all four were living at the house where the bodies were found.

    Gardaí believe the woman holds the information that will explain how the children died.

    While the investigation was only beginning on Friday evening, gardaí have no evidence there was anyone else in the house around the time of the children’s deaths.

    Gardaí are hoping to speak to the woman as soon as Saturday and in the meantime nobody else is being sought.

    While the deaths of the three children were being treated by the Garda as “sudden” and “unexplained”, the inquiry into their deaths is criminal in nature."

    RIP.

    Think closing the thread wouldn't be a bad idea.

    Who needs strangers talking about this on the Internet.

    I kinda figured we were ****ed when I was seeing lots of suicides around me over the past few years. Whole communities ravaged by it and the stats not correlating. A lot of them recorded as death by misadventure.

    As a society we really are at the point we need to evaluate where we are. And what our priorities are.

    I did have hope that it might have been something like Carbon Monoxide poisoning or something, which would have been awful in itself don't get me wrong. But I see things have moved on according to IT to a criminal issue.

    How very sad. May the babes rest in peace.
