Gardaí focus on when Sheola was last seen alive

GARDAÍ are still trying to pin down the exact time strangled teenager Sheola Keaney was last seen alive because this information could prove vital to finding her killer.

More than 50 gardaí are involved in the search for the Cobh 19-year-old’s murderer, according to the man leading the investigation, Inspector Martin Dorney.

Officers want to piece together the last few hours of her movements, but their efforts are being slowed because of having to search through the wads of thick undergrowth near where she was found.
