• Gardaí refuse to release file on Limerick man's 1996 death Death (circumstances under investigation) · Co. Limerick

  Denis Walsh Jnr went missing in Limerick on 10 March 1996, and his partial body was found on Inis Mór, County Galway, on 7 April 1996. A man is the suspect in the death. The remains were identified in February 2022 through advances in DNA technology after being stored in a mortuary for 18 years. An inquest in April 2022 recorded an open verdict. Denis Walsh Snr, 83, is suing the State over shortfalls in how Gardaí handled the case, and Gardaí have refused to release the file, citing data protection legislation.
