Gardaí are appealing to the public NOT to share videos and images that appear to show the murder of Keane Mulready Woods.
Partial remains of the 17 year old were found in Coolock, Co. Dublin on Monday.
Gardaí say the footage is unverified and very distressing for Keane's family.
Photos which appear to be of the 17 year olds remains are being circulated with the warning that if you mess with us, "you'll lose your head".
A video is also being shared which appears to show Keane begging for his life, before being hit with a weapon.
Gardaí are urging people NOT to share this footage.
They expect to confirm later today whether or not the remains found in Ballybough in Dublin yesterday also belong to Keane.
