Ex Christian brother sentenced to five years for assaults on three boys in Cork

A former Christian brother has been sentenced to five years in jail after he was found guilty of indecently assaulting three boys at the North Monastery School in Cork in the 1980s.

Passing sentence the judge said Br Edward Bryan had not shown a shred of remorse.

Last week a jury at Cork Circuit Criminal Court found him guilty on seven counts of indecently assaulting the three boys between 1984 and 1990.

He was today sentenced on eight counts having been convicted of one count of abusing a boy at a trial last year.
