Lizzie O'Neill (also known as Lily O'Neill and by the alias Honour Bright) was a Dublin woman who was abducted, fatally shot, and dumped at Ticknock, County Dublin, Ireland in an alleged revenge killing and act of vigilantism in June of 1925.[1][2][3] The investigation was an early test for the newly established Irish Free State and its national police, the Garda Síochána, which eventually arrested and charged a Garda Superintendent and a rural physician with kidnapping and murder. Even though both men were acquitted, a plaque now stands in Ticknock marking the incident.[4]
