There was another case like this here about 2 years ago. an elderly lady left the home she was staying in on chrostmas day. her body was found a year later on Bray head in Co Wicklow.


Gardai have confirmed that the remains discovered on Bray Head in County Wicklow two days ago are those of Ms Maura Reynolds.
The 78-year-old went missing from her nursing home on the 25th of December 2005.

Gardai say there were no signs of physical trauma on the body, which was identified by dental analysis.

An investigation file is being prepared for the Dublin City Coroner who will carry out an inquest in due course.
