The heartbroken mother of Josh Dunne has lost herself in grief since his death – but vowed she will be back fighting for her son this year.
Diane Dunne is preparing to mark the second anniversary of her boy’s passing this month. In an interview with Dublin Live, Diane told us: “I feel like the grief is after taking over me and I didn’t have the strength to keep fighting for Josh. That’s why I had to take a step back. But I’m not going to let it go. I’m fighting for Josh’s name and memory.”
Josh was stabbed to death at East Wall Road in Dublin’s north inner city on January 26, 2021. Brazilian food delivery cyclist George Gonzaga Bento admitted to stabbing the 16-year-old but was found not guilty of murder and walked free from court last summer after a jury accepted that it was a case of self-defence.
