An peaceful town that was visited by evil

The thought of a young mother and her eight-year-old daughter being stabbed to death in their home in what appeared to be a frenzied, crazed attack drove fear into the populace in Killorglin, Co Kerry.
Even by the standards of today’s increasingly violent society, it was a savage double murder that horrified not only local people but the entire country. Jolanta Lubiene, 27, received 61 stab wounds, while her daughter, Enrika, sustained 11 stab wounds. Seasoned gardai whose job it was to go into the house, No 9 Langford Downs, Killorglin, were visibly shaken by the spectre of a large amount of blood on the kitchen floor, stairwell and upstairs landing.
