Antoinette Smith - Part 1

On the 11th of July, 1987, 27-year-old Antoinette Smith went to see David Bowie in concert at Slane Castle and never came home.

Antoinette was a full-time mother of two, so the rare night out was extra exciting. Antoinette kissed her daughters goodbye on that sunny July day, not knowing she would never see them again. Her body was found nine months later in tragic and horrifying circumstances.

In Part One of our series on the murder of Antoinette Smith, we meet the real woman behind the headlines - her life, her beloved daughters, her last day on earth and the beginnings of a murder investigation that has remained unsolved for nearly 40 years.
