Family of murdered Jill Meagher to take part in mini marathon

The aunts, cousins, and friends of Jill Meagher are taking part in the Flora Women’s Mini Marathon so they can raise funds for the Dublin Rape Crisis Centre.

The death of the Co Louth woman sent shock- waves around the world and a man is currently before the Australian courts, having admitted to her rape and murder.

Now her family in Ireland has decided to support the work of the Dublin Rape Crisis Centre, as well as centres around the country, and they say that, if Jill was here, she would be supporting them too.
