Amy Fitzpatrick family targeted by sick internet troll demanding money for her return

A sick internet troll has again targeted the family of missing Amy Fitzpatrick – claiming they have the teen and demanded over €200,000 for her return.

The Dubliner was just 15 and living in Spain’s Costa del Sol when she was last seen on New Year’s Day 2008. Tragically, her older brother Dean was stabbed to death five years later by Dave Mahon, the partner of Amy’s mother Audrey.

One online parasite, who claims to live in New Zealand, has sent the family a Facebook message stating: “Hi, I have her. It’s easy, 500,000$NZD and you get her back.”
