Reading your analysis from last year, I still think it points towards Alfie Lyons. That blood on the door absolutely makes sense if it was Alfie - perhaps he returned to the cottage to check there wasn't some evidence of their dispute (a diary, a scribbled note...). And his yarn about knocking on Sophie's door to warn her is highly suspicious - why didn't he use the phone if there was a murderer roaming around? (Unless he was the murderer)
The missing bloodstained clothes would probably have been among the items Shirley brought to the dump later that morning (the trip to the dump shortly after discovering a body on her drive seems very odd behaviour - most people would be too traumatised to go anywhere).
Mainstream media are questioning the old narrative now - even Pat Kenny, the journalist whose interview with Ian Bailey was arguably the reason Bailey's libel action collapsed (because Bailey described himself in the radio interview as the "chief suspect"). Last week, Kenny said it would be a grave injustice if DNA evidence proved Bailey innocent. Kenny made the comment seven minutes into this interview (with Barry Roche of The Irish Times):
RIP Shirley - and may God forgive you for keeping silent all these years.

This absolutely makes sense. This case is so infuriating.

Sorry to hear of her passing. May she rest in peace. Did she die at her original home or had she and Alfie moved out of that house. ?
I heard a few years ago she moved house after Alfie died. The linked newspaper article suggests she lived in Ballydehob.
Thanks
