Funeral of Frankie Dunne told death was 'wrong, pointless and without justification'

The brutal death of Frankie Dunne, whose dismembered body was found dumped behind a derelict house in Cork just over a week ago, is incomprehensible, wrong, pointless and without justification, mourners at his funeral Mass were told.

Fr Gregory Howard, the parish priest of Knocknaheeny/Hollyhill parish, told the congregation at St Mary’s on the Hill Church in Knocknaheeny that the devastation, havoc and pain that has been thrust on those who loved Mr Dunne is “truly unbearable and indescribable”.
