Partner recalls stab victim’s last moments

THE partner of a 27-year-old man stabbed to death in a Killarney housing estate in January 2005 yesterday described his last moments.

Rachel Doyle told an inquest how she screamed for help and tried to pull Fergal Landy’s assailant Joe Greaney away from him with her free hand while she held their baby with the other hand.

Father of one Joe Greaney, 36, from Limerick, was later convicted of murdering Mr Landy and sentenced to life imprisonment. Both men had worked as chefs in the town, at one time together in the Whitegates Hotel, where Mr Landy was working when he died.
