The Kerry Babies case and 40 years of secrets: Couple deny DNA proves they are parents of murdered child

It’s 40 years since ‘Baby John’ was found naked, shoved between rocks, with his tiny neck broken, on White Strand beach in Cahersiveen, Co Kerry. There were 28 separate knife wounds on his body, most of them shallow, hesitation wounds, in which the knife was pulled back at the last second. A local couple, who were arrested on suspicion of murder but released without charge, have denied they are the child’s parents.
