Family of Siobhan McLaughlin writing letters against killer Brian Kearney's bid for freedom

The family of murder victim Siobhan McLaughlin have revealed they are writing individual letters of objection to killer Brian Kearney’s latest bid for release.

Tragic Siobhan (38) was murdered by her remorseless husband Brian Kearney, when he strangled her with a hoover flex and tried to make it look like suicide, at their home in Goatstown on February 28, 2006. And now the remorseless killer has launched his fourth bid for release - with him due to appear before the parole board in the coming months.

Speaking exclusively to the Irish Mirror, Siobhan’s sister Aisling revealed she and the rest of her family are right now in the throes of writing individual letters to the parole board - in a bid to stop Kearney in his tracks. She said: “As I speak to you I’m with my father here helping him to write his letter to the parole board.
