THREAD PART 1.

On Sunday 21st June, 14 year old Noah Donohoe left his home to meet his friends at Cave Hill Belfast to study for school. #RememberMyNoah💙

He was on his black Apollo mountain bike, fully dressed, wearing a helmet and carrying a backpack containing his laptop and 2 books with his name on them. He also had his mobile phone with him.
On the 27th of June. Noah's naked body was sadly discovered 950m inside a storm drain, between access points. This storm drain was accessible through an area completely unfamiliar to him, behind houses at Northwood Road. https://t.co/bpz3Rmc0wq
"Noah's body was found by specially trained police officers between two drain access points within a section of the tunnel running under the Translink access road," said Mr McCrisken."

Noah's bike was also found near a house, behind a car, in the same area. It had been there for more than 24 hours before a member of public who lived in the street said she read reports of a missing child and checked the bike and phoned the police. https://t.co/38nzctfk4y
Some of Noah's clothes were found in the same street, where the last known cctv sighting of the teenager was seen, on Northwood Road. Among them, his helmet, hoodie and shoes. His jacket, underwear, shorts and t-shirt are still missing
His laptop was taken by police from a man named Daryl Paul. This man did not hand in his laptop voluntarily. Noah's laptop was seized in North Belfast after Mr Paul instructed the police he had left it with a friend to mind. https://t.co/9A0Jddf2ke
Daryl Paul had tried selling Noah's laptop. An anonymous tip off told police he had Noah's backpack, it along with books, laptop and Noah's jacket (as mentioned in this article) https://t.co/tZxN4yehQC
Daryl Paul has stated he found Noah's backpack beside a wall under a pedestrian underpass on the grounds of Ulster University on the day Noah went missing. Article found in @BelTel
Daryl Paul also claims another man was there that day and described him as acting suspicious near Noah's backpack. The man is described as having tattoos. Mr Paul states he told the police about this man on the day of his arrest. Article from @BelTel
There are many cameras in and around the Ulster University area.
Noah's mobile phone was found in North Queen Street beside a children's play park. https://t.co/pdej1JxbB4
At first it was put out by some news media, that Noah phoned 999 emergency services from his phone, but the police said this was "inaccurate
"https://t.co/DdjhIQhC3P
One of the last CCTV videos, show 14 year old Noah on York Road, fully dressed. The following videos show Noah naked on Northwood Road running and exhausted.
https://t.co/3xddfKIcOi
No cctv or eyewitnesses seen Noah actually removing his clothing between Skegoneill, Northwood Crescent and Northwood Road.
There was cctv footage handed in by a member of public who lived on Northwood Road of Noah cycling past her home naked, from the waist up https://t.co/NpXUrCe9En
There is also cctv footage of 14 year old Noah naked and running, exhausted between 2 houses at the top of Northwood Road. This was the final known sighting of young Noah. His Mother Fiona has seen this video https://t.co/Rm1FOmZqcQ
At first, because a member of public had said she seen someone fitting the description of Noah fall of his bike (in North Queen Street/York Street junction), the police suggested that perhaps Noah may have suffered a concussion. https://t.co/LhAO1A3kLE
That this led him to become confused and take his clothes off. The coroner's report said that Noah had died of drowning. There was no mention of a concussion. https://t.co/mcCOmcv2ke
Noah's Mother Fiona has seen cctv videos. She saw only brief moments of Noah's journey caught on camera, but has not yet seen the moments or hours before or after the videos were recorded. She has requested to see them in their entirety. https://t.co/Zwk6V3mtnE
The last videos caught on cctv have caused a lot of confusion. As at first the police said Noah's last sighting was at 6:11pm, naked between 2 houses. They then changed the time, twice, and said they'd made a mistake and that the actual last sighting was 6:03pm.
As to date, Noah's shorts, underwear, t-shirt and coat have not been recovered. There has also not been anyone come forward with either cctv or eyewitness to show that Noah removed his clothing.
There is confusion of how the person who saw Noah fall, stated he had left his jacket as it fell on the ground, and that he got back up and got on his bike and continued cycling. His jacket was also mentioned in the anonymous tip off about Daryl Paul and the backpack.
Most of Noah's clothes are still missing. As his Mother Fiona witnessed first hand, the police stood on the street while Noah was missing and allowed bin collections to proceed on Northwood Rd, while both Noah and his clothes were missing.

Noah's Mother was not allowed to search the area her son was last seen while he was still missing https://t.co/KQRV3LKw2W End of Thread 1
THREAD PART 2.

The public are upset that the police were suggesting "No foul play" before an autopsy had ever taken place with Noah after the discovery of his body, 950m inside a storm drain, in an area he was completely unfamiliar with https://t.co/dSAAXGDO4m
Many news papers and media ran this story, suggesting that Noah had done all this because of a concussion. After the coroners report which didn't mention a concussion, there was no further additions to this or updates https://t.co/sU2gW8WJFV
In May 2020, a month before Noah's death, another boy around the same age as Noah was brutally attacked and robbed very near the same area Noah had vanished. He was also cycling and had his phone stolen and his bike. https://t.co/fDgRs1g4Xs
The storm drain that Noah was found in was unlocked. As Noah was said to be still inside and missing, someone was phoned and asked to put the lock back on, on the 24th June. Nobody knows who unlocked the storm drain in the first place https://t.co/Vlk7dfYfLN
Noah is said to have discarded his belongings, yet the public have not seen any cctv whatsoever of Noah doing this. Or of him discarding his backpack at Ulster University. If there is cctv of Daryl Paul picking up the backpack there must be cctv of it being left there.
Police said that there was a leaflet drop, yet there was no evidence of this

More from Crime

This is terrible weighing of the costs and benefits of the pardon power. I think Senator Murphy woefully undervalues its utility. /1


In part because the Congress of which he is a part has established no functioning second-look mechanisms for shortening sentences or expunging convictions, commutations and pardons are the only mechanisms for correcting injustices in the federal system. /2

And it's not as if those injustices are rare. Go to any federal correctional facility, and take time to learn who is there and about their cases, and you find literally thousands of people whose sentences were grossly excessive given their offenses. /3

Those people need commutations as a corrective because there is no parole or other second look in place to address that. Some have tried to use compassionate release under the First Step Act, but DOJ tries to block those efforts at every turn and it's a limited option. /4

Presidential commutations are thus the only avenue for these folks. And under President Obama, more than 1,700 regular people (not his cronies) received relief. It was woefully inadequate for the need, but it shows the value of the power. /5

This is NONSENSE. The people who take photos with their books on instagram are known to be voracious readers who graciously take time to review books and recommend them to their followers. Part of their medium is to take elaborate, beautiful photos of books. Die mad, Guardian.
