NY mom Jamey Carney's last post with suspected killer, Ahmad Alsaqer
Key Points:
- Jamey Carney, a 43-year-old New York mother living in Ireland, was beaten to death in her rented home in Killarney; her 13-year-old daughter discovered her body after a violent assault.
- The prime suspect is Ahmad Alsaqer, a 28-year-old asylum seeker who had been dating Carney for about a year and a half and fled Ireland for Istanbul shortly after the attack.
- Police are investigating Alsaqer's possible connections in Turkey and France, and believe he may travel next to Jordan or Syria; he previously lived in the UK before arriving in Ireland in 2024.
- Carney had posted a cheerful photo with Alsaqer celebrating July 4th just days before her death, and the couple had publicly supported pro-Palestinian causes together.
- Authorities are probing a disturbance at Carney’s home the evening before the murder, and her body was found concealed under a duvet with severe head injuries indicating a prolonged assault.
