Annie McCarrick, who was 26 years old at the time, was reported missing in Dublin on March 26, 1993. The mother of an American lady who vanished in Ireland thirty years ago expressed confidence that a new murder investigation could “turn up something new.”
In spite of searches at the time and in the years that followed, no sign of her has been discovered.
Friday, Irish police revealed that her disappearance is now being investigated as a homicide.
Annie McCarrick’s mother, Nancy, told Irish station RTÉ that she would “love to be able to find” her daughter and bring her home to Long Island, New York.
She stated that she hopes the police would now examine all the evidence and information that has been gathered thus far.
She continued,
“They have stated that they will do this, which is fantastic”.
I believe it is the best that could be hoped for.
Mrs. McCarrick stated that she did not believe it was “even faintly imaginable” that her daughter may still be alive when asked if her family had any hope that she was still alive.
She stated,
“I did for a very, very, very long time, but not after 30 years.”
She urged anyone with information regarding the loss of her only kid to contact the authorities.
Mrs. McCarrick stated that there was “nothing more vital” that could be done with even the slightest amount of knowledge.
She continued,
“You never know how useful that could be.”
When asked how difficult the past 30 years had been for her family, Mrs. McCarrick responded, “Time really does assist a great deal.”
You have no choice but to do the best you can and simply go with the flow.
The last verified sighting of Ms. McCarrick was taken on Video shortly before 11:00 a.m. local time on the day she went missing at a bank on Sandymount Road near her Dublin residence.
There were further reports of sightings in the Sandymount Green neighborhood, of her boarding the number 44 bus going for Enniskerry in County Wicklow, and of several sightings in Enniskerry village and at Johnny Fox’s tavern in the Dublin Mountains.
Det. Supt. Eddie Carroll stated at a press conference on Friday morning that police are “confident that it is now more likely that Annie met a violent end.”
Ms. McCarrick was an only child whose father, John, died in 2009. She was 5ft 8in (1.72m) tall, weighed 10 stone (63.5kg), and had long brown hair.
She reportedly talked with a gentle Irish-American accent, and it is thought she was carrying a huge brown leather suitcase when she vanished.
Detective Superintendent Carroll implored anyone with relevant information to come forward.
“I implore anyone with knowledge of Annie’s murder not to think we already know it or that it has little worth.”
