Cavan murder-suicide: #HerNameWasClodagh trends on social media

There has been an outpouring of support for Clodagh Hawe, 39, who was killed by her husband, Alan Hawe, 40, in the Cavan murder-suicide last Monday.

The hashtag #hernamewasClodagh began circulating on social media earlier this week as media reports emerged carrying comments about Mr Hawe’s nature from neighbours and friends.

However, there was little information available about Clodagh or her three children Liam, 13, Niall, 11, and Ryan, 6, who were also killed by Mr Hawe.
