"I can't see why they are not searching it."
Speaking on Kildare today, Retired Detective Inspector and veteran Investigator Pat Marry has urged Gardai to revisit a site near convicted rapist Larry Murphy's former home in Baltinglass.
The call comes after Cadaver dogs detected a ‘scent’ which could be human remains.
Larry Murphy, a convicted rapist, was the prime suspect for the murder of Deirdre Jacob, who vanished from Newbridge in 1998.
Cadaver dogs were brought in by a farmer last July, more than 25 years after he first noticed disturbed ground in a secluded and rarely visited wooded area in a remote site.
The dogs are said to have indicated the presence of human remains on three separate visits in July, including on one occasion when gardaí were present.
