Gardai renew appeal for murder of young women whose body was found eight years ago

On the 8th year anniversary of the discovery of the body of Linda Evans Christian who was murdered in 2017, gardai renew appeal for anyone with information to come forward.

On Saturday 24th June 2017, at 9:00am, Linda Evans Christian left the Ash Ward of James Connolly Memorial Hospital in Blanchardstown, Dublin, where she had been receiving treatment.

On Saturday 1st July 2017, her family reported her missing and on Monday 17th July 2017, her body was discovered at Coolmine Woods, Blanchardstown, Dublin 15.

Despite an extensive Garda investigation and a number of enquiries followed, including the arrest of a male in 2018, no one has been brought to justice for Linda’s murder.

Gardaí and Linda’s family are appealing for people to come forward to assist with the investigation.

An Garda Síochána would encourage anyone with any information regarding Linda’s disappearance and murder, no matter how insignificant it may seem, to make contact with the investigation team. Particularly, any person who may have information on Linda’s movements around Coolmine Woods at the time of her disappearance is asked to contact Gardaí.
