Helena O'Connor, a grieving mother who's son Gavin was murdered 12 years ago, visits her son's bedroom which she hasn't touched since he said goodbye to her on the tragic night of June 4, 2011.

"I get very upset when I come to the bedroom when he died first I used to come up and sit on the bed and hold his sweat shirt but I cant even do that anymore," Helena told the Sunday Independent.

Her then 22-year-old son Gavin was beaten to death while he was sleeping in his car after a music festival in Carrickmacross in Monaghan.
