Missing for 34 years: Patsy O’Sullivan and the secret family no one knew about
In April 1992, Patrick 'Patsy' O'Sullivan dropped in on his brother Jerry at home, just as on any ordinary day. Jerry would never see him again. Patsy disappeared from his home in County Kerry, and years of searching and emotional appeals went nowhere. The family had to wait 34 years to learn the truth about what became of him. A new episode of the Indo Daily podcast, hosted by Tessa Fleming, takes up the case with Kerryman journalist Sinead Kelleher and with Jerry O'Sullivan himself. Part of what surfaced is a secret family no one knew about. How the relatives pieced the story together decades after the disappearance is at the center of the conversation.
