Charleville Mother Whose Sons Were Stabbed To Death Blames Council For Family Split

A Charleville mother whose twin boys were stabbed to death by their brother says because the Council hasn't knocked the house where the tragedy happened their family has split up.
Helen O’Driscoll's eldest son Jonathan took his own life, after stabbing his 9 year old twin brothers at their home in Deerpark, on September 4th 2014..
She doesn't want to leave the area where her sons died tragically but she couldn't face turning the key and stepping back inside her family home after that tragic day.
Helen and her husband Thomas and their remaining children moved into a mobile home behind their home and begged the Council to knock the house or re-house them.
Speaking on the Neil Prendeville Show on Cork's RedFM three years after her children's deaths Helen says it pains her that the house is still standing
