Garda: Full incest details may never be revealed

THE Garda who built the case against a Roscommon mother convicted of abusing her six children has said the full truth of the scandal may never come out.

Garda Sergeant John Hynes, who has worked on other child sex abuse cases, said the sheer extent of the trauma which the children endured may prevent them from disclosing all the details.

He said it was not possible to imagine what they had lived through.
