Body of Missing Paul Byrne found

Twenty-year old Paul Byrne was last seen alive on Wednesday, the 15th July 2009.  His mother and girlfriend appealed on Crimecall for information on his disappearance.  Both feared the worst.  They believed he’d been killed.


On Thursday, the 29th July 2010 two men clearing land at Ballyfolen in Co. Wicklow found a human skull on the forest floor.  The area was sealed off and more human remains were discovered along with some of Paul’s possessions.  Forensic examinations were carried out on the remains and on September the 28th it was confirmed the remains were those of Paul Byrne.


Gardaí are appealing for information.
