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.

If you have not watched it, here is Noah's mummy Fiona's podcast. It is, of course, a tough watch - TW - but gives the best understanding of the situation. The interview begins at about 3:21. If you can, please give it the time it deserves and watch until the end.

@Jamboree01

And sadly, many never see the light of day.

Please god, Noah will be the change 🙏🏻💙

Fiona said that she had told Noah that he would change the world.

This is just not the way she ever imagined or wanted him to do it, of course. I can't find the right words to say this, I'm sorry, because they are all gross understatements, every single one of them.

My only hope is that there will be some comfort in getting justice - because Noah surely will get justice - and in preventing this from happening to anybody else's precious, innocent child.

I'm honestly horrified reading about this and watching the interview with his mum.
Can you imagine if it was a 14 year old girl who was missing and her laptop and bag was found in someone's house?!
The inactivity of the police is baffling and devastating Sad

Signed and shared. I am sick to my stomach reading Fiona tweets there. Poor poor Noah it is every mammy's worst nightmare. I haven't the words to express the rage towards the animals responsible and the psni for covering up.

CatChant · 10/04/2022 13:24

Please sign the petition. Help Fiona uncover the truth. The questions about her beloved Noah’s tragic death have gone unanswered too long.

If it was your precious child who never came home you would need to know too.

Hope90x · 10/04/2022 13:28

This story shakes me to my core
Signed and shared.

The PSNI are sadly a collection of the most corrupt and self-serving animals known to man. They will cover up and set-up for the right price/people and have no regard for the lives they ruin.
Unfortunately the lower-ranking officers are not always aware, the corruption is at the top.

TooBigForMyBoots · 10/04/2022 13:36

@FlippyFloppyFlappy, I have relatives at Noah's school. The pupils are terrified and they are right to be. There are some very evil people on the streets of Belfast and the PSNI are protecting them, and keeping them on the streets.

What is wrong with the UK when the police's priority is the safety and freedom of powerful, child killers?Angry

FlippyFloppyFlappy · 10/04/2022 13:56

My God, I had no idea it was like that TooBigForMyBoots Sad

Yiayoula · 10/04/2022 14:55

I hadn’t realised that the boy who was attacked a short time before Noah was a pupil at the same school he attended.
No wonder your relatives are terrified, TooBigForMyBoots.

The PSNI have blood on their hands.
Shame on them, and shame on the child murderers they are shielding.

If you haven’t already done so, please, please sign the petition.

If the body of your child was found naked , 950 metres into a pitch dark storm drain , in an area of the city he had never visited , would you believe no foul play was involved ?
Would you ?
Would anyone ?

Justice for Noah 💙

This is part of the article:
'Noah Donohoe
The Police Service of Northern Ireland are not doing anyone a favour by sitting on the shoddy investigations they did two years ago. The police should own up that they have been seriously unprofessional in how they have unfairly dismissed what majority of people feel about young Noah's death. How long do we have to wait for just one brave officer to address the public about the deliberate incompetency of the police? Some institutions in Northern Ireland hide under a roof called ignorance. It is common when black people have been attacked. There are cases of victims going to the police, compensation agency and the all-white panel with a medical doctor struggle to determine the extent of the complaint. They can't see it. Many have complained, these are not hypotheticals. But for these kinds of institutions like the PSNI to sit on young Noah Donohoe's life like this is beyond belief and many now agree it is Stephen Lawrence yet again'.

Can I ask, are Father's Day pranks a "thing" in NI? I've never heard of anything like it, April Fool's Day maybe (but even then, involving a 14 year old child?!).
