On the 4th October 2004, 30 year old Rachel O'Reilly dropped her two kids off at their creche & tragically after that she was never seen alive again.

Her body was discovered in her home in The Naul, County Dublin, Ireland, the bloody crime scene revealing she had been savagely bludgeoned to death with a dumbbell.

As Joe O'Reilly remains in prison for her murder despite believing he will one day move abroad to start a new life, he is still regarded as one of Irelands most notorious, ruthless & evil killers....
