UCD Student, do you have a year or any more info for the "mid 1990s.." story?
Dunk, thanks for the links.
\does anyone know any more about the student who fell to her death on October 12th 1990?
This attached link has a little more information, though nothing concrete. You have to scroll way down to find it.
I notice that the flowers are changed around her birthday - 28/12. She would have been 39 this week, 20 years since she died. She is now dead for longer than she lived, and somebody's heart is still breaking. From all such tragedy, deliver us.
