And , are we to learn eventually what happened to this Kerryman who farmed a 1000 acres.

I knew a fellow called Gain in London ~ A bit of an odd fellow really ~ Irishman ( Kerryman ) that had served in the British Army ~ A super-visor with an Irish Construction Company

This fellow ( below ) was his son ~ Never quite made the higher levels ~ I do remember talk of a transfer to Sunderland ( when he was at Lincoln ~ The high-point of his career ) but it never happened.

If I remember correctly ~ The son was playing in a play-off final ( maybe in Cardiff at that time ) and the Father was at work on a Sunday !

My take is he took the money and ran Venezuela with Matilda.. If so - best of luck to the man.
Given the amount of diversity in Kenmare these days -‍- however he just may have met the wrong people.
I hope he turns up alive.

 

[Declan]

I dont have much hope of this lad being alive. I would be hesitant to offer shelter to anybody and certainly not a foreigner that likely would be affected by life’s travails. I do not believe the american had a part in his disappearance though because the only reason for that would be a relationship which is unlikely at these ages.

I would first explore any drug connections

Obviously ~ We have to be careful but I suspect, The Obvious Suspect !

The other possible interesting thing about this is ~ How long was the murder planned ?

Planned so well that it is Extremely Difficult to find Poor Michael Gaine's body ?

One can only hope that Justice is Served for Poor Michael Gaine.

Is this one of those cases where ~ A Good Deed has indeed Been Punished !

'We just want Michael home,' says missing farmer's wife

My money was on the wife but she seemed convincing. I just thought it odd just how quickly she sold the livestock..
I guess my sleuthing skills need a tune up.

If you were a gambling man and went it to a bookies ? !

What odds would you get against that fella ?

Especially if ( the odds ) was based on the case being solved and the killer being convicted ? !

It was upgraded to a homicide investigation on the same day the wife broke cover.
The coppers are about to flush them out.

 

[nobody knows I'm a dog]

If it's murder, it had to be a well planned one. So many out looking, and no body found.

Person of interest in Michael Gaine killing had come to garda attention before disappearance

A “person of interest” in the killing of Kerry farmer Michael Gaine had come to the attention of gardaí before his disappearance.

It is hard to imagine that they will not cravk this case

 

[willows68]

Remember the poor lady in Cork was under the floorboards for years. Husband living right by, having his tea. Satchwell he is - not a Cork name, is it. Strange strange humans, indeed.

I think it makes it a bit easier to crack these case's when the Cops have a very good idea who did it !

I suggest that the suspect is the very obvious suspect ~ ~ Maybe I am wrong, but I doubt it !

I suspect that no good deed goes unpunished

I think once that trial is over attention will turn to Garda incompetence, they saw the fresh plastering in 2017 but didn't think anything of it.

The Guards were probably asking him to do some building work around their own places,

Bunkers, with dead body storage facilities! ! !

False Walls for Hidden Bodies !

Tombs !

Head-Stone and Grave Plot Work !

There was as similar case in the area 50 years ago when a Danish lady disappeared without trace and still no remains or evidence has appeared. It’s either little grey/green men or it’s just a handy sort of place to hide bodies.

In this case it is almost certainly the most obvious suspect !

Another case of a ~ A Good Deed Getting Punished !

Innocent people just don't realise that a lot of these, Down and Outs have extremely serious Mental Health Issues.

A business man in England took some fella off the streets / maybe even gave him a job ~ ~ When it all went sour, The Nutter snuck back in the Good Samaritans House and Murdered the Good Samaritan's Wife and Child ! !

There have been many case's like this over the years !

Was there even another one in Ireland recently ~ Some fella let a Black Woman and her Grown-Up Son stay ~ ~ The Grown-up Son killed the Good Samaritan ~ ~ The case probably didn't get the coverage it deserved for the usual " " " Politically Correct Reasons " " " ! ! !

Was that one up in the North ~ Had she just got off the ferry and taken a lift from some-one. I'd say the Law knows who did that, but they don't have any evidence ~ ~ And of course up North paramilitaries could be involved, maybe Loyalist in this case ? !

The unsolved case of missing farmer Mike Gaine is not the only mystery in the south Kerry town

On July 2, 1978, Leidy Kaspersma got out her car on a remote road outside Kenmare and simply vanished. It’s almost 47 years since that fateful day and Leidy’s family have never found out what happened her.

Just read up on that one - the boyfriend didn't report the disappearance for days, acted cagey and then fled to Lebanon where there wasn't an extradition agreement. In such strange cases, more often than not it is the nearest and dearest who did it.
Also wasn't there another case in Meath involving a murdered German hitch hiker? But there the killer was a stranger.
A lot of foreigners think Ireland is some kind of Darby O'Gill disney land - when clearly we have our share of utter psychos - I'm especially thinking of Murphy and O'Dwyer...

Msm news report human tissue found in slurry tank. Tbf I was thinking that is the only place he could be in. In some way I hope it turns out a tragic accident. Slurry tanks can kill you incredibly fast.
Surprised they didn't look there first as unpleasant as it might be.
RIP the poor gentleman.

I thought that reports had said that ~ Slurry Tanks had been checked ~ Which I in my innocence would have thought meant, emptied ? !

If an area is designated a Crime Scene, would that's mean that the Gardaí still suspect, Foul Play / Murder ?

 

[Declan]

Well if the slurry tank was not drained, then it must be the greatest screw-up in global crime history. The gases can kill you almost instantly asaik

I wonder what Slurry would do to a body, particularly if the body was chopped up ? !

Not that I am thinking of getting rid of some Irish Politicians or anything like that

This is certainly gruesome. I also assumed that the slurry tank had been emptied. Maybe they just poked around in it for an entire body - but being in pieces they found nothing.
The poor soul.
Now the plod must find the murderer.

Just a few words on slurry pits.

There are three basic types, silos (those big round green things) open tanks/pits which are holes in the ground usually concrete lined and the third is covered sheds where there are tanks underneath concrete sl@ts upon which the animals move around. Dairy herds will have cubicles for the cows with a slatted passage alongside or down the centre while beef are often left to lie on the sl@ts.

Getting a body into into a silo or open tank is easy enough, tip it in with a loader, if the loader can reach. But it will be pretty obvious and easily found unless you weight it down. Sl@ts usually have a removable section for access, but if you tip it here it will be the first thing found when folk go looking for a body.

Two further problems with the slurry pit idea, the first is that they provide a highly anaerobic environment, there is no oxygen and for things to rot that's what you need. Slurry pits are more likely to pickle and preserve a body.

Secondly, by mid to late March it is highly likely that Gaine would have emptied the slurry pits, it's best to get it spread on the grass as early as possible so it has time to be incorporated into the soil before grazing.

So no, the slurry pit might seem obvious but it wouldn't be the first choice of anyone who knows about farming, which might suggest that if it was disposed of in this way then the killer is not a fellow farmer.

Is S L A T a naughty word now? The site won't let me post it!
