It is understood that officers wanted to search the site last year, but due to Covid restrictions, had to wait until this week

A man seen dragging something from the boot of a car into the woods 23 years ago has led to the latest search for murdered Deirdre Jacob.

The man’s claims have now formed the basis for what will now be a huge three-week Garda search at the site, which is located some 15km from Newbridge, where Ms Jacob was last seen.Notorious rapist Larry Murphy, who lived close to the area at the time, remains the chief suspect in Ms Jacob’s disappearance – and a file is currently with the Director of Public Prosecutions in relation to this case.

Officers suspect that several other unexplained murders which occurred within a similar time period, could also be connected to the site. “And if they do find something, please God, you never know because it’s in that area [near where JoJo disappeared.]” An incident room has also been established on the site for the duration of the search, which officially began yesterday. Insp Fitzgerald said: “There was unusual activity in or around the time Deirdre went missing and based on that it felt prudent to commence a thorough search of the area.”
