Many users from another sub recommended that I post this story here also. There are many different articles about the topic.

First off I just want to state, this whole situation is slightly messed up and it has caused me to make an account just to try and help the family who has been affected by this case.
Basically Four years ago, Dean Roche went missing after he had travelled to a small village BallyFoyle in county Kilkenny in Ireland, in order to buy a new car from a man who lived there, its an extremely rural area with nothing around but a few scattered houses and lots of fields and to be honest its more of a road with houses than a village.
Dean arrived at the mans house and bought the car yet a few minutes up the road he crashed the car and went back to the same mans house and strangely reported to him that a car had been abandoned on the road.
The tale gets a little messed up here as stories have changed multiple times as to what happens next, the Garda (irish police) stated there was a string of burglaries which happened in the area. One woman stated she seen Dean crawling along the floor in her kitchen but when she went to get her husband he had gone by the time they had returned.
This brings us to the last sighting of Dean Roche, that same night an elderly woman living in the area heard noises coming from outside of her home, after she went out to get an explanation she noticed Dean standing in her drive way, she then asked him if he was okay and if he needed help. Dean then replied that he was not okay and that he indeed needed help. The woman went back into her home to get her phone to call for help, when she went back outside Dean was gone.
A silver car then flew up the road at an extreme speed, screeched to a halt at an entrance to a field next to the woman's house, she heard a man getting out of the car and screaming "get in the car, get in the fucking car, get in get in get in" A few moments later the car sped off in the direction of another town called Castlecomer.
This is where things get strange, the Guards who were sent out to search for Dean concluded that he had ran through a field next to the elderly woman's house and continued to run until he perished or simply disappeared of his own accord, the Guards never followed up the lead about the silver car and continued to search around the Ballyfoyle area, a pair of mens runners were found in a different field afew miles away but it has not been confirmed if they belonged to Dean or not.
Deans mother sadly passed away a few months ago either at the start of 2019 or the end of 2018, she passed away not knowing what happened to her son , Deans best friend since childhood has been documenting the entire situation on Facebook and has uploaded videos onto youtube of him searching the area and trying to disprove the Guards theory that Dean had ran through the field and that he simply didn't make it.
Damien Hipwell (Deans best friend) continues to try and document his own personal investigation but as he is one man can not really be expected to solve this by himself. Dean has been missing for about four years, and its widely believed he is dead, yet no person deserves to lay dead in a field for years not found and not buried. Deans mother had requested that she not be buried until she can be buried with her son.
I didn't know Dean personally. This isn't a story or me trying to get some internet points or anything like that, I was simply searching my hometown on YouTube trying to see what mad videos I could find but ended up stumbling across Damien hipwells YouTube video explaining a little of what happened and how they had been treated by the Guards. It made me upset and I felt posting the story might lead to something although I highly doubt it.
So rest in peace to Dean and to his mother.
