๐ง Chapter 25: The Final Trace of Trevor Deely
What should have been a routine walk home turned into one of Irelandโs most enduring mysteries.
After leaving a work Christmas party in the early hours of December 8th, 2000, Trevor Deely made an unexpected stop at his office โ where CCTV captured him speaking to a hooded stranger moments before he disappeared forever.
With a taxi strike, a violent storm, and a baffling change of route, investigators were left with little more than a handful of camera frames and a voicemail no one thought to save.
25 years later, the question remains:
Where did Trevor go after that last sighting?
