124 - Siobhan Hynes: Murder Most Foul

17 year old Siobhan Hynes went out with friends to the small village of an Cheathru Rua on the night of Sat 5th December 1998. She never made it home. Siobhan's body was found the following day, on the foreshore of a nearby beach. How could something like this happen in such a small, isolated community?
