Have been reading a book about about these murders recently. I like to know exact locations. They took place in 1 Orchard View Grangegorman. Is this address still there as I can not seem to locate it? Nash himself lived in Prussia Street for a while. Anyone know the exact address? He was also involved in crimes in Roscommon but weirdly Nash seems to have cycled a huge distance before he was caught. Anyone know details about that?

Yeah it's next to #2 Orchard View, Grangegorman.

It's beside the former Richmond General Penitentiary.

The house was demolished years ago.

Thanks a lot. Is Orchard View still there or has house been demolished?

There was a block of houses , all demolished as part of regeneration in the area.

Here's the house, from 2009 before it was demolished. https://www.google.ie/maps/@53.355739,-6.2779222,3a,75y,147.41h,76.99t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1soZfdq9J1vS7bxJYC6o5RyA!2e0!5s20090601T000000!7i13312!8i6656

It's now a council yard. It's at the south end of Rathdown Road, on the left just before the old nurses accommodation building.

Agree - mens rea in general is very interesting

Yes interesting. Thanks. It was unclear where exactly Nash was finally arrested after the murders in Roscommon. He seemed to have a bicycle and to have cycled all the way to Galway.

What a sad tale the whole thing was.

There may have been a third victim in Roscommon had a local man not been in when Nash broke into his home.
It's good to know that piece of crap will die in prison.
