Reflections on the senseless death of a Dorchester Irishman Ciarán Ó Conghaile (IrishCentral)

Wed, 12 Oct 2011 03:01:16 PDT

Dorchester, BostonIt is with horror and revulsion that I have been reading and hearing about the death of Inis Meáin, Aran Islands native, Ciarán Ó Conghaile, in my city Still sketchy Boston and Irish news reports indicate that he may have been killed because he was in the wrong place at the wrong time and may have been the victim of a botched robbery or may have intervened in the attempted robbery of another victim In fact, Ciarán was killed in the Adams Corner section of Dorchester, maybe two miles from the house I grew up in, just outside the city limits in East Milton That he was a native of my adopted county and that I am a native of his adopted city makes his death all the more tragic to me personally, even though I never met him READ MORE
