Kyran Durnin

[WinterSolstice]

I’m keeping a loose eye on it. Something in the FBG thread reminded me of the poor little lad today. His grandmother and mother must be so unnatural, every family with a missing member is desperate to find out what happened and lay their loved one to rest.

ETA: being very careful with my words.

The key suspect who took his life before Christmas I’m guessing has caused a huge upset to cracking the case?

 

[WinterSolstice]

Probably. I’d love to hear what the investigating officers themselves think, they’d have a good instinct based on interactions with all parties involved.

I think they’re trying to keep pressure on people by drip feeding the media things like the takeaway patterns and hoping eventually someone will tell the truth.

Just noticed there’s a wiki for this case: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disappearance_of_Kyran_Durnin

His mother reported to the school they were moving to Newry in June 2022. Yet she was still getting her social welfare and child benefits from ROI since. Hope they make her pay it back! Fraud!

“Analysis of online food ordering data from orders made to a number of fast food takeaways in Dundalk and Drogheda by a person of interest in the summer of 2022 showed a pattern of individual meals being bought on a daily basis, however after a certain date there was one less meal in the regular order, which implied that Kyran was no longer present after that time.”

This was the guy who took his own life?

 

[WinterSolstice]

I assumed the orders were mother/grandmother placed.

Saw this today, they are searching a new location for Kyran. I wonder if it was information received or if they have uncovered something new in their own investigation.

A property in Drogheda, County Louth, is searched for a boy who is missing, presumed murdered.

I think they’re just trying to keep the pressure on in the hopes one of the two will come clean.

Glad the media are keeping this alive. That grandmother is blocking justice for her grandson. Presumably to protect her daughter?

They all know full well where that child is and what happened to him. What kind of grandmother would keep quiet over her grandson likely being murdered and dumped somewhere? Dirty vile witches the pair of them

 

[pommynoir]

Some woman on one of the “Mas” pages posted that this is fake news. Took a lot of self control not to tell her about herself!

I dont understand this case at all. How can the mother not know when she last saw hwe child or who was looking after him? How can police not get this information out of her?

It’s the one of the strangest cases I’ve ever read about.

Saw comments it’s an African family so maybe slipped through the net?

Sick! How does these so called mothers sleep at night. Those poor innocent babies left alone somewhere to rot. The very least they deserve is a dignified burial. Hopefully one day all of these monsters involved in both of these little boys disappearances will be brought to justice.

I posted this in the Missing person's thread but I just realised that it was mentioned initially in this one and not the missing person's one. They've found the body of the 2nd little boy missing from 2022:

https://www.archive.is/oldest/https...-for-boy-not-marked-as-missing-for-four-years

The authorities only realised he was missing because the mother was trying to claim benefits for him: it's shocking that the mother tried to get money for him when she knew he was dead.

This second article speaks a little more about the background of the parents. the mother is from Africa but the father is Irish but lives in South America with his new partner. It says that they are trying to persuade him to come back home - I hope that which ever country he's currently in has an extradition treaty with Ireland otherwise there's no way he'll voluntarily come back to walk straight into a murder charge.

I honestly can't imagine how both parents just moved on with their lives. Same with Kyran's mum and other relatives especially the gran. It's just unspeakable'

Sorry, I forgot to link the second article:

Poor baby Daniel

Poor baby Daniel

Not that it makes a difference, but seeing his picture makes it so much worse. He was such a cutie. It's truly unfathomable that anyone, let alone his parents, could hurt him and just move on. Human nature is just inexplicable.
