NY mom Jamey Carney's alleged killer got passport back from Irish authorities
Key Points:
- Ahmad Alsaqer, the suspect in the murder of New York mom Jamey Carney, fled Ireland using his own passport after authorities returned it upon granting him subsidiary protection during his asylum application.
- Carney, 43, was found suffocated with severe head wounds in her Killarney home by her 13-year-old daughter, and Alsaqer is believed to have killed her following a loud argument.
- Investigators face challenges in charging Alsaqer due to his regular presence in Carney’s home, which complicates the use of DNA evidence linking him to the crime.
- Alsaqer reportedly left Ireland early Tuesday, traveling first by bus to Dublin Airport and then flying to Turkey, giving him a 12-hour head start before Carney’s body was discovered.
- Police are investigating Alsaqer’s contacts in the Middle East, suspecting they are aiding his escape, as he arrived in Ireland earlier in 2024 and met Carney at a pro-Palestinian rally.
