Lyra, 29, was shot in the head as a terrorist opened fire at police during a riot in the Creggan area of Londonderry on April 18 last year.
The gunman and his accomplices fled as officers rushed Lyra to hospital, where she later died. The New IRA later said its members killed her.
World figures including ex-US president Bill Clinton condemned Lyra's killing and her funeral in Belfast was attended by then prime minister Theresa May and the President of Ireland, Michael D Higgins.
The riot came after police raided the homes of suspected dissidents in the run-up to 1916 Easter Rising parades. Mr Murphy told BBC Radio's Good Morning Ulster yesterday that the murder probe was a "1,000 piece jigsaw" and praised the Derry community for providing information.
