This is quite a long story so I'll try and keep it short. A couple of years ago I had the misfortunate experience of witnessing an arson attack on a property I was staying at. To say that night I thought I was going to die is an understatement.
Forensics were called in and removed evidence. This was a couple of years ago and we never heard anything back; no outcome of the evidence they found or whether anyone was caught for it.
We had to pick up the pieces of our lives and move on. I have spend the past couple of years looking over my shoulder, double checking are all doors locked in my home and living on my nerves.
My friend went on to sell the property for far less than what it was worth all because they were terrified of a repercussion. They since lost their job and refuse to discuss what happened whereas I’m looking to start talking about it now.
I’ve done some investigating myself and asked neighbors what they can remember of the night in question and did anyone see anything out of the ordinary.
The neighbors have said they seen nothing but every cat and dog on the street knows who did it. Apparently the people who supposedly tried to burn us out have a violent past and have done time for murder.
The Gardai have also said that these people are prime suspects for the attack on us.
The people who supposedly done it were renting in the area and receiving rent allowance. They just terrorised innocent people for kicks but of course I personally do not have proof it was these people only from what I have heard.
Will justice ever be served in the courts or do I have to walk around looking over my shoulder with a friend who undersold a property to escape from further attacks? It just doesn’t seem fair.
We have been told we have no case against the landlord who was renting the property or the council because there were no arrests made but the landlord had been informed before the attack on us that these people were threatening other people in the area and was asked to end her lease agreement with these people as they were deemed dangerous but she had refused.
Surely something can be done as these people were prime suspects by the Gardai and were under surveillance?
