GARDAÍ HAVE COMPLETED their search of an area in Chapelizod for the remains of missing man Trevor Deely, but have not found anything that would assist them in locating Trevor.
In a statement, gardaí said: “Unfortunately nothing that furthers the search for Trevor was located during the search.”
The site remains closed to the public at the moment. Excavation work began there in mid-August.
Gardaí are still appealing for more information in relation to Trevor’s disappearance.
Anyone with information is urged to contact the incident room at Pearse Street Garda Station on 016669000 or the Garda Confidential Line on 1800 666 111.
Trevor went missing after attending a Christmas party on 8 December 2000, and was last spotted on CCTV footage which showed him crossing Baggot Street Bridge and walking towards Haddington Road in the city centre.
A cold-case review was begun by gardaí in December, which included swathes of evidence being gathered and witnesses re-interviewed.
A fresh appeal was issued in April, with gardaí releasing digitally enhanced VHS footage taken on the night of Trevor’s disappearance.
Gardaí began a search at a site in Chapelizod. The three-acre woodland site is owned by South Dublin County Council and is situated behind the R112 road.
Gardaí began the search on 12 August. A large area of the woodland was cleared with a team of gardaí searching the area. The area runs down by the River Liffey and remains closed off to the public.
Detective Inspector Paul Costello said that gardaí had begun the search as a result of new information they obtained. He said that this information was not related to the appeal in April.
“We’re at the very early stages of the search,” he said at the time. “As it develops we’ll keep an open mind about what we find and don’t find.
“We believe there are still people out there who have information that we need and we’d appreciate contact,” he said.

Didn’t they only say just last week that we were doing fantastically well?
Cut the ESRI altogether….that should save a good few bob !!!!!!!!
Yeah, if we get rid of all the people saying we need to close the gap between governent spending and revenue then maybe it’ll all just go away.
The ESRI do not exactly have a credible record as economic advisors.
Yes if we cut the ERSI from the public purse maybe they might start getting it right in the world of sink or swim.
Yes daniel they did but that was last week :-)
its only an extra 400 million say it fast doesn’t sound much …
Down with that sorta thing
Careful now
How can u cut more and more and expect growth ,, it just doesnt make sense
What do you want us to do, follow the examples of Germany and Holland, who are still performing reasonably well and have low debt.
FG/FF will never do that, and their excellent track record of only bankrupting the state 4 times in 90 years is proof of that.
Absolutely nothing is being done at the moment for the domestic economy, indeed August has been the worst month to date for company insolvencies. The SME’s, the domestic economy are dying, but then again they are only with the rest of the little people and are well below the concern of FG/FF. Always have been, always will be.
What kind of salaries are ESRI academics on? Wasn’t it one of the cheerleaders of a ‘soft landing’? More calls for a tow from the Titanic.
have your say
