Mike Lambe, 62, a bar regular, described McNally as a “sweet, innocent girl from Longford,” a county in central Ireland. She had only worked at the pub for a year.

Green told the Daily News that McNally worked as a prison officer in the Emerald Isle before moving to the States.

“She was innocent!” claimed Lambe, who lives just two blocks from the tavern and says the street is frequently plagued by drug sellers and users.

“It’s been getting worse and worse,” he told the media.
