For Irish Posters: Missing DCU student: Paul Bunbury

[pothead pixie]

Paul Bunbury

From Boards.ie: "Paul Bunbury, a DCU Student has recently gone missing. Paul hasn't been seen since Thursday at roughly 4pm in DCU and nobody has been able to contact him. His family are very worried, and are appealing to anybody with information to contact Whitehall Garda Station on 01-6664500.

Please pass this message on to anyone you know. Hopefully someone has seen him.

So please, if anyone has any information, please contact the Gardaí at Whitehall or post in the DCU thread to keep everything together."

I thought I should post this here as lots of forums, Facebook etc have been covered in Ireland, this is to spread this UK wide and Europe too, as Paul apparently had an out of date passport so he could still travel to the UK by ferry without the need for one. This is basically aimed towards Sonisphere and Download posters as I have worked out that Paul liked metal music through some of the posts in Ireland.

We've had a few people disappearing in Dublin over the last 10 odd years. Really weird. And sad. There was a guy called Trevor Deely about 10 years ago, left a pub on Friday night, turned a corner and was never seen again. No fights, no cars pulling along side him on the CCTV etc.

Hope this guy just fell and has amnesia or something.

I was reading that some people just walk away leaving everything behind and start afresh elsewhere. Could be a breakdown or not, but it is still more common in men. It does seen strange that with all the information stored about a person that a trail is not left, but I do know that the police did not have a right to access tax records/dole records etc without a court order. At least families could know a loved one was alive.

Ill bump this again, as this guy is still missing and its twelve days now.

there's also an awful lot of people around here (Bristol/Bath) who go missing, who are later found in the river.

The majority of them are "last seen leaving the pub", so either there's something weird going on which attracts the pissed to water (a most unwise thing to do), or there's something even weirder going on.

Drink, Depression and Suicide go hand in hand unfortunately...

While I am not suggesting it is the case here ( I know nothing of this man ) it is certainly a common explanation on how people end up being found in rivers.

that's supposedly been nothing to do with the instances around here, from what's been reported on the local news.

But then again, who really knows what's going on in people's heads?

Also, sometimes family don't want to accept how unhappy their love ones where. that they missed the "warning" signs (not that they where ever there to spot) and so on...

Yeah, I know all about that one after a friend of mine chucked himself out of a 13th story window about 20 years ago.

His family fought like crazy against the possibility of a suicide verdict at the inquest (I can't actually remember which way the verdict went now).

I'm personally not sure whether it was or wasn't suicide. There were reasons why it might have been, but he was also the sort of guy who might have just thought "I wonder if I can fly?" and did it without another thought, or even just had the urge to jump without any thought about it (in the way that people say they do when stood on a cliff edge and the like).

There could be loads of reasons. The remains of a bloke missing were found near Stockport recently after 6 or 7 years. They where in a wooded verge or something. Police think he was clipped by a car and went over a barrier and rolled a bit.

No stretch of the imagination to think someone has fell or was mugged and pushed into a canal.
