Body of 84-year-old found badly decomposed


Wexford town was plunged into sadness following the discovery of a badly decomposed body on Friday night last. The body of Bridget Crosbie was found by Gardaí at her home at The Faythe, Wexford town, at around 9.30pm. It is believed that Ms Crosbie who was 84-years-old led a reclusive life and relatives were prompted to contact Wexford Garda Station after a number of months passed by without telephone contact from her. The body was transferred to University Hospital Waterford where a post mortem examination is due to be carried out early next week. Gardaí say the result of the post mortem will determine the course of their investigation. However, foul play is not suspected.
