‘The knock on the door is the worst thing’, says father of killed 16-year-old

“That phone call or that knock on your door, believe me, it’s the worst thing you can ever imagine,” said Leo Lieghio whose 16-year-old daughter was killed in a hit-and-run in 2005.

“It’s gut-wrenching. It’s something I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy,” he added.

He was speaking at a vigil outside Leinster House yesterday organised by the Irish Road Victims’ Association (IRVA).
