A distressed millionaire flew to Ireland after a friend spotted his son 'walking the streets in a hot pink fur jacket' with a 'wild look in his eyes.' About 24 hours after the fateful flight to Ireland, the Connecticut financier John McGowan was dead, and his heir son was charged with the killing. Henry, then 30, allegedly killed his dad at the five-star Ballyfin Demesne hotel in Laois, back in November 2024. He booked a luxury hotel for the night and planned to go to the hospital they recommended the next day. 'The Mater Hospital cannot comment on individual patient cases for confidentiality reasons.'
