Just as the title says.

Noah Donohoe disappeared coming home from school, his body was found in a storm drain without his clothes.

His mother can not get answers on why the police decided, immediately that there was no four play and us being blocked from seeing 4 files by the police.

She says On the day Noah was found, before Noah was formally identified, the Police did a media release stating that there was ‘No Foul Play’ involved.I ask, if the police are so sure that ‘No Foul Play’ was involved, why are the police now trying to stop me, as Noah’s mummy, getting four files of information on Noah’s investigation?

Surely I am not unreasonable to think this isn't ok and that most of use would want to know what had happened to our child?

This is an overview of what has happened so far.

Very concerned to hear about this:

Niamh* *@ NiamhDonohoe78 on Twitter:
'Alarmed to have answered the phone to a vile human making threats towards me and my sister. That's not how this works, you will never silence us. Try as you will. Spotlights on you and yours.
They are vile, running scared. How dare they threaten.
I'm sure the person/people wish they hadn't acted so hastily. As Fiona said the information has been passed to the appropriate people including our solicitor. Intimidation of any type will not stop us from revealing ANYONES involvement. All eyes will always be on you and yours.
We know who it was, and for their safety and their families we won't make it public. Next time I will though. They have just made their involvement in Noah's death even more questionable'.

FIONA DONOHOE @ FIONADONOHOE2 on Twitter:
'This person did not think before acting and so all information is very much in our direct knowledge and is with our solicitor. There is MANY a person I would like to have phone conversations with about what happened to beautiful Noah. That would be called Intimidation'.

You'd think so, wouldn't you? Many have asked. We were told it would be discussed in the office and passed to the campaigns team - but nothing has been done, not even improving the awful algorithms set for the thread which make it very difficult to get into Active.

And to sunlight upon those who did not try. Did not look. Did not care.

And to those who kept quiet, or those who said too much and the ones who turned their heads away…

His mam just wants what is right. What is fair. What will maybe bring justice for her beautiful boy who should still be here.

For Noah. 💙

Yes, it is. Grieving, having to do all this, and being threatened for it. Probably not a surprise but no less shocking for that.

Lndnmummy · 23/04/2022 23:30

@TheRealMrsMac I am heartbrokwn to hear this. Awful.

Lndnmummy · 23/04/2022 23:31

@MNHQ is there an update from the campaign team?

Yiayoula · 24/04/2022 06:32

@Lndnmummy : The only times I’ve had a response from MNHQ re pinning the Noah thread(s) is when I’ve either reported my own post , or mailed them direct at [email protected]

Unfortunately on neither occasion has the outcome been what I would have expected from a site whose stated aim is to support parents.

Disappointing .

💙 Please, fellow MN -ers, sign and share the petition.
