FERMANAGH has the second highest number of domestic killings across Northern Ireland over the last decade.

Second only to Omagh -- ranked the highest due to the house fire at Lammy Crescent which claimed the lives of a family of seven -- Fermanagh has recorded seven separate domestic killings between the year 2005/2006 and 2014/2015.

By contrast, nine adults and children were killed by partners, ex-partners or family members over the same period in Omagh.

In figures collated by investigative news website, The Detail, the local victims of domestic killings include two children, aged 0-9 (a boy and girl) a young male (aged 10-19), three men (two aged 30-39 and one aged 40-49) and one woman aged 60 or over.

Fermanagh recorded a further 908 domestic “incidents” over the last 10 years. Of these, 409 became domestic “crimes”.

Details of the murder and manslaughter of both adults and children in the last decade were recorded by the PSNI and released to The Detail in response to a Freedom of Information (FOI) request.

Enniskillen toddler, Millie Martin, is Fermanagh’s youngest known victim of a domestic killing in the last 10 years.

Barry McCarney (35) was jailed for life for murdering and sexually abusing the 15-month-old girl at her home in 2009.

McCarney was found guilty of the offences at his trial at Dungannon Crown Court in December 2012.

He was ordered to serve a minimum of 25 years in jail. He has always protested his innocence.

There are fewer details available on Fermanagh’s other young victim.

According to The Detail, the anonymous male child’s death was recorded as homicide in 2005/2006 or 2006/2007, however the date of his death may not have actually been within these years. A police investigation into the death of the child (aged 0-9) resulted in a charge or summons. However no file was forwarded to the PPS (Public Prosecution Service) or the courts.

Nineteen-year-old Gary Elliott is recorded on The Detail’s list too. His girlfriend, Kerri Cassidy pleaded guilty to his manslaughter after he was found dead in the kitchen of a home at Townhill Park, Irvinestown with a stab wound in September 2007.

David Johnston (32) is another victim. His brother, Raymond, was jailed for two-and-a-half years after pleading guilty to his manslaughter on the Twelfth night in 2012.

Another killing in Fermanagh is recorded in January 2014. The male victim is aged between 40 and 49 and is understood to have been killed close to Tullychurry Road, Rossharbour, Enniskillen.

While there is no information on a police investigation in this case, a file was forwarded to the PPS or the courts.

A woman aged 60 or over is Fermanagh’s only adult female victim of a domestic killing.

Her death is recorded as having occurred in November 2009. A file was forwarded to the PPS or the courts, however the offender died before proceedings, according to The Detail’s data.

A male aged between 30 and 39 is the final victim in Fermanagh in the last 10 years. According to The Detail’s information, similarly to the anonymous male child, his death was identifed as a homicide in 2005/2006 or 2006/2007 but he may not have been killed within these years.

A police investigation resulted in a charge or summons but no file was forwarded to the PPS or the courts.

Across the province, there were 67 domestic killings in the last 10 years, according to police records.

Out of these 67 deaths, a charge or summons resulted from 48 cases.

And as the public awaits a new Domestic and Sexual Violence and Abuse strategy from the Northern Ireland Assembly, a further 28,287 incidents of domestic abuse were reported to the police during 2014/2015, according to The Detail.

Breaking down the traditionally held views that domestic abuse incidents are solely effected by a man against a woman, the figures across the province show that over a quarter (28 per cent) of the victims of known domestic abuse crimes in 2014/2015 were male.

Health Minister Simon Hamilton told The Detail that the domestic abuse strategy has been endorsed by his department’s top management group and that consideration is now being given to how the strategy’s aims may be progressed “in the exceptionally difficult financial environment we all face”.

The strategy - which aims to reduce the incidents of domestic and sexual violence and abuse as well as provide support for victims - must also be approved by the Northern Ireland Executive.
