Footage of the violent incident surrounding the deaths of eight-year-old twins Christy and Chelsea Cawley and their 18-year-old sister Lisa Cash has been circulated on Whatsapp, with a local representative urging people to refrain from sharing it further. 

“There are videos being shared on WhatsApp. I would ask people not to share it out of respect for the family and the local community as well," said Dermot Richardson, a Sinn Féin councillor for the Tallaght area.
