#2 - Case of Ruth Lawrence : The Irish Fugitive

Double murder suspect Ruth Lawrence is on her way home from South Africa tonight in handcuffs escorted by Irish detectives after being extradited to stand trial in Dublin following nine years on the run.

Fugitive Ruth, (42), had been lying low since the bodies of Eoin O’Connor (32) and Anthony Keegan (33) were found with gunshot wounds to the head and buried in a shallow grave.

She and fellow murder suspect and lover Neville van der Westhuizen, (40), fled to his native South Africa shortly after the killings and both worked as tattoo artists travelling the Rainbow Nation for work.
