Where is Jón? - 06. The Notes

Where is Jón? - 06. The Notes

Author: RTÉ March 4, 2025 Duration: 35:58

During the first five years of Jón’s disappearance, through to February 2024, there was no indication of where Jón’s remains might lie. But behind the scenes, two anonymous notes had been handed into the authorities. The first was handed into a Garda station in 2022 - and the second to a priest's house in 2023. Both indicated Jón was buried in a specific location. Could this be the first real breakthrough in the search for Jón?
