The Grangegorman killings refers to the homicide on 6 March 1997 of Sylvia Shields and Mary Callinan, patients of St Brendan’s Psychiatric Hospital in Grangegorman, Dublin, Ireland.〔.〕 After giving a false confession, Dean Lyons was charged with the murders and placed on remand. In his statement to the Irish police force, the Garda Síochána (commonly called the Gardaí), Lyons gave details that would only be known to the murderer or to the investigators. After Lyons was charged, Mark Nash confessed to the killings, but later retracted his confession. In April 2015, Nash's trial for the murder of Shields and Callinan began after an unsuccessful attempt to prevent the trial from going forward. Lyons was described by one of the gardaí (policemen) involved in the case as a "Walter Mitty" character, and Dr Charles Smith, psychiatrist and director of the Central Mental Hospital, Dundrum, felt that he might be prone to exaggeration and attention seeking. A commission of investigation was set up to investigate the conduct of the gardaí in the case. Dean Lyons died from a heroin overdose in 2000. He spent nine months in jail for a crime that he did not commit.〔 ==Murders== On the morning of 7 March 1997, Sylvia Shields and Mary Callinan were found dead in No.1 Orchard View, Grangegorman, Dublin 7. They were found by Ann Mernagh, another resident of the house, who raised the alarm at No.5 Orchard View. The house was a two story end of terrace house owned by the Eastern Health Board, and was used to provide sheltered accommodation for outpatients of St Brendan’s Psychiatric Hospital. The two women had been repeatedly stabbed, their throats and faces had been cut. One of the women's genitals had been extensively mutilated, and both women were partially undressed. The level of mutilation had never before been encountered in a murder investigation in Ireland.〔 Neither of the women had been raped, and no semen was found at the scene. The killings were described as: "the most brutal murders in Irish criminal history" by the ''Irish Examiner'' newspaper
