Excavation for Charles Brooke Pickard’s remains is ended
Gardai and army personnel had excavated a site near the mountain pass of Ballaghisheen close to where Mr Pickard’s van had been burnt out 25 years ago.
The missing man’s son, Crohan, who was seven at the time said the family is still hopeful of finding “peace”. “We are hopeful that someone will come forward with the location,” said Crohan. Now a father of five, Crohan said the priority for the family was “peace, not vengeance”.
