Dave Mahon, stepfather of missing teenager Amy Fitzpatrick, responds to years of accusations on social media, stating that no one has directly accused him of her murder. He emphasizes his resilience and his hope that his autobiography will lead to a serious investigation into potential suspects.
The stepfather of missing teen Amy Fitzpatrick says no one has ever accused him to his face of killing her. Dave Mahon , who served five years in prison for the manslaughter of Amy’s brother Dean, says he is very aware of accusations on social media over the years. Asked if anyone has ever said to his face that he murdered Amy, who vanished from Spain on New Year’s Day 2008, Mahon said: “No. No one really has put it as blunt as you just said it. Look I’m not out to change anybody’s perception.
I don’t really care what people think. They don’t have to walk in myself or Audrey’s shoes. Let’s just hope one of their kids doesn’t go missing and then I go, ‘Jesus Christ they must be having a rough time’.” Asked if it ever bothers him that people make unfounded claims and accusations about him and Amy’s mother Audrey on social media, Mahon responded: “No, it doesn’t really believe it or not. Of course it’s going to affect you but if I was to sit down and start suffering from depression and stuff like that, well you might as well just swallow a bullet. Anybody has an opinion like everyone has an a******e. If you said that to me 17 years ago it might be different but I’m just too old, too wide and too tired and I know what I have to do to survive in this world and Audrey does. Mahon, who self-published an autobiography titled How Much Pain Can Our Hearts Endure, says he identified in it four suspects in the disappearance of Amy – and he says he hopes one day someone takes it seriously. He added: “That book tells a whole different story and I hope someone picks it up one day and says let’s look into these four people properly”, Mahon said
