Murderer Behind the Mask killer Graham Dwyer and his life today

A brand new harrowing series documenting a real murder is set to air this weekend. Murderer Behind the Mask is set to air on Prime Video this week and will feature the murder of Elaine O'Hara who went missing in the Dublin Mountains back in 2012. It will explore the police investigation as well as how murderer Graham Dwyer was captured. A synopsis reads: "When Elaine O'Hara goes missing in the Dublin Mountains in 2012, police assume she has taken her own life. But over a year later, a chance discovery of items found in a lake by a group of fishermen, lead to a body of a young women, sparking an incredible murder investigation, and leading to a very surprising suspect." Ahead of the new documentary, dubbed a "must watch" for true crime fans, who is Graham Dwyer and where is he now? Graham Dwyer was a seemingly normal father and family man who was also a successful architect. But people did not realise he was leading a sordid double life. From Dublin, Dwyer was happily married until police soon unravelled his "double life of twisted kinks and violent fetishes". He was charged with the murder of Elaine O'Hara in 2013, one year after she went missing. Elaine was reported missing in 2012, with the police suspecting she had taken her own life, but in 2013 her remains were discovered in Killakee wood. Unusual items were also found in a reservoir by a fisherman including bondage items and keys. In 2015 he was found guilty of the murder, despite his denials. Prior to his incarceration, Dwyer did not have a criminal record with no-one suspecting his shocking secret. He had a fascination with stabbing fetishes and BDSM. But when Elaine's remains were found, it was not long before police soon connected the dots to Dwyer after finding a string of harrowing text messages he had sent. Following the horrific murder and the trial, the case soon became one of Ireland's most notorious murder cases, garnering nationwide attraction. The documentary will show the police investigation from the moment Elaine O'Hara was reported missing, right through to Dwyer's conviction. Preview clips have shown the moment of his arrest where he was described as "arrogant" and "fighting back". It was later said of Dwyer: "He knew there was a chance her death would be classed as a suicide." Graham Dwyer was served a life sentence in 2015 after being found guilty of murder. Maintaining his innocence, he has attempted to appeal his conviction. However, his latest appeal at the Supreme Court was rejected. He is now in his tenth year of imprisonment and will remain their for the remainder of his sentence. The shocking case is being revisited in a documentary available on Prime Video, which delves into the unfolding of the case and Dwyer's trial. Murderer Behind the Mask can be streamed on Prime Video on June 21.
