Daughter found killer hanged in shed

FREDDIE FLANNERY, the man dubbed the House of Horrors Killer, was discovered hanged in a shed by his young daughter, an inquest was told yesterday.

The 44-year-old killed himself on May 16 last without ever having been convicted of the gruesome deaths of three men. Flannery’s trial for the murder of Patrick ‘Patch’ O’Driscoll controversially collapsed in the Central Criminal Court in June 1996.

A judge ruled late disclosure of documents by gardaí was detrimental to Flannery getting a fair hearing.
