'Gardai returned clothes my Josh wore when he died...but I can't look at them'

The mother of slain teen Josh Dunne has been given back the clothes he wore on the night he was killed.

Heartbroken mum Diane Dunne says she feels emotional but relieved to have the last items of clothing Josh (16) was wearing on the day he was killed in Dublin’s East Wall on January 26, 2021.

After asking gardai to return the clothes, Diane this week received a box containing them - which she says she hasn’t yet had the strength to open. “I felt like the blood drained out of me when it came. I wanted the clothes back and asked for them back. But I haven’t actually looked at them yet. I just can’t bring myself to look.”
