💙 THREAD 2: Will you spare five minutes to help the lovely Noah Donohoe get the justice he deserves and to support his mummy Fiona in getting the truth about what happened to her beloved son? 💙

My son, Noah Donohoe was an intelligent smart gentle boy. He was 14 years old and he was my only child and my everything.

On 21st June 2020, a bright sunny day, Noah set off on his bike to meet up with his 2 friends but never reached his destination. Instead, Noah was found 6 days later in a storm-drain, naked, in a part of Belfast he did not know.

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?

The Police have applied for a ‘Public Interest Immunity’ certificate, which, if granted, means they can hide four key files in the investigation. Such a certificate is only used in exceptional circumstances and rarely used in the case of a missing child. This certificate has been brought into play in cases where Police intelligence, informers or paramilitaries are involved.

I as Noah’s mummy have, from the very start of Noah being missing, believed that the police did not use all their resources in finding Noah. This was confirmed when it emerged they had not paid anyone overtime while investigating his death. They did little, if any, forensics and any suspects that were brought to their attention were dismissed as not relevant.

I believe that someone harmed my Noah and that there have been serious and repeated failings in the Police investigation of his death. I will never get Justice for Noah if I do not get all the information. These four files are vital for us to get the truth we desperately need, to find out what really happened to my precious son.

I am asking you as the public, some of you as parents, to sign this petition so that Noah gets the justice he truly deserves and to place transparency and accountability where it should rightly be.

So much love for Noah from so many. Everyone prayed he would return home that Father’s Day. 21st June 2020.

So much grief, sadness and anger since. Thousands have been out on the streets, peacefully, several times for Noah.

Such a beautiful boy 💙
Jam thanks for posting Fiona's tweets for those of us not on twitter.
I don't even know what to say about it. So it has been confirmed that they were in fact going to search the houses on the Saturday morning?

Imagine the strength and bravery and determination and love that it must take Fiona to keep going in the face of these revelations.
She is a warrior for her Noah

Dear Noah. Never forgotten.

The truth will not be hidden forever.

This is what she said.

She put an appeal out on FB at the time to beg people to allow their houses to be searched 💔

There is so much

Sometimes, when all you hold dear is taken from you, the only thing you need is the truth.

And as hard as it may be for this family to hear, they deserve it. Any mam would deserve it.

And Noah deserves it. 💙

ReiltinDubh · 14/04/2022 23:18

X posted there. Imagine having to do that. To put out a fb appeal for people to let the police search for her missing child.
WTAF.
In my bould teenage days I would often stay out and my mam would call the guards to look for me. I was always brought back the same night as they went knocking on doors.
Because that's their fucking job when a child is missing.
Why are children in Belfast not given the same level of protection. From the animals that are on the streets there.
I'm so angry for you all.

Completely 🙏 and Fiona has always said that she will accept the truth, no matter what it is.

Now the PSNI are seeking to invoke Public Information Immunity in a case where they declared ‘no foul play’.

They haven’t just denied her the truth, they have mentally tortured her for two years.

I agree this is dreadful. The uncertainty must be horrible..

ReiltinDubh · 14/04/2022 23:31

When the truth comes out. I hope with all my heart that it leads to a paradigm shift. That no longer will families have to fear their children being hunted on the streets.
Fiona said she always told Noah he would change the world 💔💔💔

He will be the change.

How much we wish that he was still here loving his life and looking forward to his future.

He’s in so many hearts.

Fiona Donohoe
Belfast, NIR, United Kingdom

Hello everyone,

Thank you so much for your ongoing support - it means so much to us. We are incredibly disappointed that we have still not be given an update by the Coroner, the Police Service or the Chief constable on what is happening with the PII. We are being left in limbo and we want answers.

Please keep signing and sharing so the PSNI know - more than 300,000 of you are watching.

We all are Noah's Voice for Justice

Thank you,
Fiona and Niamh

@TheRealMrsMac the channel 4 report was welcome but also understated.

Addicted2Crisps · 15/04/2022 00:28

What is the police ombudsman doing? Is there any movement at all?

I feel like my grandparents would have totally related to this awful tale. This is hardly unprecedented. And yet here we are in 2022, with another Catholic and black child falling victim to some depraved animal.

Jamboree01 · 15/04/2022 00:28

They absolutely did their best. They coroner et al went to court to try to prevent it being aired at all

What have Nancy Pelosi and colleagues been saying on this?
