A jury has heard Elaine O'Hara was in extremely good form and looking forward to volunteering at the Tall Ships festival on the day of her alleged killing.
Her father Frank O'Hara has been giving evidence at the trial of father of two Graham Dwyer who denies murdering the 36 year old Dublin childcare worker at Killakee, Rathfarnham on the 22nd August 2012.
The jury's heard Elaine O'Hara was discharged from St Edmondsbury psychiatric unit on the day of her alleged murder.
Her father Frank says she called to his house in Killiney, they had lunch and then went to put flowers on her mother's grave at Shanganagh cemetery
He said she was in extremely good form – as they parted company at about 4pm she told him she had to be up early the next morning because she was volunteering at the tall ships festival.
He became concerned over the next two days when he could not contact her and said he even sent a sarcastic text message 'are you alive?' the following night
When he discovered that she'd not turned up to work at the Tall Ships festival and had not been in contact with St edmondsbury hospital he became extremely worried and contacted Gardai.
