A Garda cold-case team has identified more than 100 “persons of interest” in the investigation into the murder of Jo Jo Dullard.

According to the Irish Independent, The 21-year-old from Co Kilkenny vanished without a trace in 1995, one of several women to disappear in the Leinster region in the 1990s.

Her disappearance was upgraded to murder in October 2020 following a review of the case by the Garda’s serious crime review team.

Superintendent Martin Walker in Kildare said a new team of gardaí and specialist ‘cold case’ detectives were working through a list of people they believe may have information relating to the case.

“The emphasis at this juncture is on the excess of 100 persons of interest in this case, and that’s where our focus is,” Supt Walker said.

“We have set up a new investigative team based in Naas Garda Station with an incident room coordinator, two detective sergeants and a team of 13 gardaí from the Serious Crime Review Team and our own local resources.

“The investigation is active, and we would appeal again for anyone with information to come forward to us,” he added.

The last confirmed sighting of Jo Jo Dullard was at a phone box in Moone, Co Kildare, at 11.37pm on November 9, 1995.

She had left her home in Callan, Co Kilkenny, earlier that day to meet friends in Dublin.
