Heartbreaking news from Dublin: a mother of two, Alexis Lee Campion, is spending her 44th birthday in an induced coma after a vicious attack left her with severe burns. On November 25, Alexis was targeted in her home by assailants who set her on fire with an accelerant. Her family describes her as “unrecognisable” and says her life is now “in tatters.”
The attack, believed to be connected to local gang rivalries, has left her in a critical state, with 35% of her body covered in third-degree burns. Despite doctors working tirelessly, the extent of her recovery remains uncertain, and her family is grappling with the possibility that she may never see, walk, or talk again.
Alexis’s partner, Francis Maguire, believed to be the intended target, tried to save her, but the attackers remain at large. The community has been deeply shaken, with local residents and leaders calling for the police to treat this as an attempted murder.
Our thoughts are with Alexis and her family during this unimaginably difficult time. Let’s hope justice is served and those responsible are brought to account. It’s a sobering reminder of the senseless violence that can shatter lives and communities. Stay safe, everyone. ❤️
