Gardaí appeal for information on 26th anniversary of Deirdre Jacob's disappearance

Deirdre disappeared near the front gates of her parents’ home in Roseberry, Newbridge, Co Kildare on the afternoon of 28 July 1998.

Gardaí are hoping a fresh appeal on the 26th anniversary of the disappearance and murder of Deirdre Jacob will stir certain people with crucial information to finally come forward.

The investigation team has made significant progress in recent years and recommended that convicted rapist Larry Murphy be charged with the murder of the 18-year-old student.
