It’s been six months since Kenmare farmer Michael Gaine went missing, and four since parts of his dismembered body were found in a slurry tank.
There has been considerable criticism of the investigation given that the slurry tank had previously been searched for his body.
A suspect in the investigation – American drifter Michael Kelley, who had been living on the Gaine farm in an old farmhouse – was arrested early on and released without charge. He is subject to a deportation order after a failed asylum bid and is now believed to be living in Tralee.
The family held a funeral for Mr Gaine in June of this year, his ashes carried into Holy Cross Church in a sheepskin-lined basket, a soft resting place for a man who was remembered as “soft and loving, caring and affectionate, kind and considerate”.
Six months after Mr Gaine’s disappearance, Irish Examiner Reporter Neil Michael went to Kenmare to find out whether people there believe the person who killed him will ever be caught
Neil is the guest on today’s episode of The Deirdre O’Shaughnessy Podcast.
