In common with many others, I wish to express my sympathies to Senator Henry on the death of her mother and to the family of Detective Garda Adrian Donohoe on his brutal killing, as well as to the Deloughery family from Kilkee, County Clare into which Detective Garda Donohoe was married. A number of members of the Deloughery family are serving members of An Garda Síochána. It is a family that has contributed a lot to the protection of the State and it is horrific that a serving member of An Garda Síochána should be killed in such a brutal manner while protecting the people's money. I attended a meeting of the Clare joint policing committee yesterday, which was adjourned as a mark of respect to Detective Garda Donohoe. The people of County Clare stand in solidarity with the people of Ireland, especially the people of Dundalk where Detective Garda Donohoe was a serving member. It is horrific and I encourage anyone with information to assist An Garda Síochána in tracking down those who murdered a serving member of the Garda.
