Evil murder of Veronica

-

Sir — Last weekend brought back memories of the horrific murder of your wonderful, brave journalist Veronica Guerin, 22 years ago, on June 26, 1996.

First the movie Veronica Guerin was shown on the Saturday night on RTE1.

Then the following morning, in your newspaper, a lovely photo of her memorial in the Dubh Linn Garden at Dublin Castle (Sunday Independen­t, July 1, ‘Rememberin­g Veronica 22 years after her murder’).

Just recently I finished reading The Tattooist of Auschwitz by Heather Morris, a harrowing story of love and care in the very worst of circumstan­ces.

The murder of millions is of course evil. The murder of one special human being is evil. as well. Murder is evil. Just a fact. End of story. Brian McDevitt, Glenties, Co Donegal
