Dublin: A woman named Deirdre Morley, who was found not guilty of murdering her three kids due to insanity, is now allowed to leave the hospital unsupervised. This shocking news comes as their father, Andrew McGinley, marks the fifth anniversary of their tragic deaths.

Andrew shared that he was informed about Deirdre’s leave. He respects the clinicians’ decision but struggles to understand it. He feels like time has stood still since that awful day in January 2020.

He’s been raising funds in memory of his children, hoping to make a difference. Andrew believes the system needs to change to protect other kids. He’s frustrated that an inquest into their deaths hasn’t happened yet.

Andrew worries that without proper support for co-parents, more tragedies could occur. He’s been vocal about the need for better mental health policies. He recalls other heartbreaking cases, like that of baby Henry Coleman, and fears history might repeat itself.

He’s been pushing for changes to the Mental Health Act, wanting families to have a say in treatment decisions. Andrew feels the current system leaves co-parents in the dark, which can have dire consequences.

On the anniversary, he plans to visit his children’s graves, reflecting on their lives. He often feels their presence, as if they’re asking him to come and see them.

Despite his grief, Andrew continues to honor their memory through charity work. He’s helped fund community projects and support groups, making a real impact.

He’s excited about his upcoming charity walk and comedy event, hoping to raise more funds. Andrew’s mission is to ensure that no other family has to go through what he has endured.
