‘Life has become so valueless, it is out of hand’
A memorial, festooned with flowers and messages, marks where Gavin “Sponge” Weldon died over three years ago. The location, outside Molloy’s Off-Licence, is at the busy junction of Le Fanu Road and Ballyfermot Road in south-west Dublin.
After Weldon’s death on July 5, 2005, Vincent Jackson, an independent councillor and youth worker in Ballyfermot and Clondalkin, called on young people to resolve rows in other ways than by using knives.
