Radio Espial: Episode 23: Missing - The Annie McCarrick Case

Annie Bridget McCarrick (born March 27th, 1966), an American woman from Long Island, New York, went missing under suspicious circumstances in 1993 while she was residing in Ireland. Radio Espial's Mick Rooney explores the timeline and events surrounding her disappearance. McCarrick was born on Long Island, New York and she grew up and lived in Bayport until her move to Ireland in January 1987, aged 19, to study at St Patrick’s College for Teacher Training in Drumcondra.

The Murder of Grace Livingstone - A Baffling COLD CASE - Radio Espial EP68

On a cold December evening in 1992, the peaceful and affluent suburb of Malahide, North Dublin, was shattered by a brutal and baffling crime. Grace Livingstone, a 56-year-old wife, mother, and respected member of the local community, was executed in her own bedroom with a single shotgun blast to the back of the head. Her killer vanished without a trace. Despite early suspicions pointing to her husband, a high-ranking tax investigator who owned the very weapon that was used, no one was ever charged. No motive was ever confirmed. More than thirty years later, the murder of Grace Livingstone remains one of Ireland’s most unsettling and high-profile unsolved cases—an enduring cold case marked by missteps, suspicion, and controversy. What follows is the Radio Espial TIMELINE—a gripping, detailed reconstruction of a murder that stunned a nation. This is not just a cold case... it's a story of how truth and a murderer can vanish in plain sight.

However, Moore felt the fence was encroaching on his land so he decided to moved it. Foley, likewise, moved it straight back to where he had first placed it. Moore eventually took a court action so the fence would be moved back indef...
