It's also shocking these men had been regularly stealing from the rooms of Hotel guests for what appeared to be a lengthy time and hadn't been caught.

Exactly! Very difficult to comprehend that nothing was done about theft from guest's rooms. Shocking! Had something been done initially to curb the ongoing theft, it could have been nipped in the bud and prevented Michaela from been murdered. My opinion is that the suspects that were released are definitely guilty seeing as the one worked security - they were all in cahoots with each other. It appears that corruption is obviously rife. How they got off scott free with the only witness (who is now deceased), boggles the mind. I truly hope justice prevails in this sad case. May she rest in peace.

We’re the owners of the hotel ever investigated? I had an acquaintance that told us he quit his job at a luxury hotel because the owner had them steal. Then if they got caught they’d “get fired” and “disciplined.” “Blacklisted” in the industry. But as soon as those guests were gone they were back at it. He did it once and felt guilty when he heard a couple arguing over who’d misplaced their belongings, each blaming the other, and got really nervous about it so he quit. He got a lot of threats over divulging information to police even though nothing got done, so he moved to the US. I don’t remember the country he said it was but if it happened there, it could be the case in other places.

Such corruption and downright coverup! What a disgrace and disgusting police dept and I hope it affected tourism and that the family keeps up the pressure to ensure that tourism drops off. Those people know what went on including those that live and work on that island but are too afraid to speak up and should not be gaining riches from tourists.

Thank you Adrian for the care and compassion while discussing this case. I still remember the shock of hearing the news of beautiful Micheala’s murder all those years ago. It shook our small community in Tyrone to the core. My heart goes out to the Harte family and John McAreavey and I really do hope that Michaela gets the justice she deserves. She was a bright light in the community and is deeply missed ❤

I agree completely with you. Nowhere is safe unfortunately. Home or Away, you need to have your wits about you and sadly this terrible case is proof. I live in a “nice” area however, when I leave the house in the dark, only to put garbage/diapers/nappies etc in the outside bin, I always tell my husband or grown up son where I’m going and if I’ve not returned in 30 seconds then they need to come out and look for me!

IDK. I’m tired of being told that I should be afraid because I’m a woman. Men are not bulletproof. And, around here, most people get killed by guns. Statistically, the most common murderers are men killing men, they’re just not as interesting as women being killed by men.

That's the most ridiculous thing I've heard. If every hotel room where something horrible happened was just closed off forever, half the hotel rooms in existence would never be available.

I would agree on the journalist comment but I think he asked her because of that special situation of her fiancé being in a rival team and how that might play out at home. And since this was rather a talk show and not serious commentary it was a fitting interview. Also it wasn’t her job, I think I heard she was a teacher.

Even pull their hair out if possible so that they won't ever get away with it. I just wish Mikayla could've done something so there was more dna on her so the killer would've been 100% confirmed and put away for life! She deserves justice as do her family members and husband. I tend to think how many times we just barely evade horrible circumstances bc of chance. I'm sure her husband wishes HE had gone back to get the chocolates or at least went with her.

This has to be one of the saddest cases. I'm like you I believe that if this happened to a member of my family I would encourage the Irish not to go to a country whose police force is corrupt so that crime is rampant. Self protection of citizens is more important then a country's PR. If the said country wants tourism then it's important that the corruption is dealt with ASAP. This reminds me of the Natalee Holloway case when she went to Aruba and their police were so corrupt and inept protecting a judge and his son Americans boycotted go in there. And to this day I would not visit Aruba for anything..

The crazy part is about certain countries that rely on tourism. You're totally right about them having to work overtime to ensure guests feel safe.
