This could have been anyone of our wives out for a run. I can't imagine what women must be feeling at the moment. Fear, vulnerability, anger. Thought and prayers with this lady and her family #tullamore

My thoughts tonight are with the family of the young woman killed in a truly shocking crime, with her friends and with her community. Please anyone with information, come forward to An Garda Síochána. The Gardai will investigate this awful crime and ensure justice is done.
