Show of support for sex offender disgusts Facebook users
The Facebook group began posting their remarks early yesterday and by last evening in excess of 1,900 people had expressed their revulsion at what took place on Wednesday when Danny Foley, of Meen, Listowel, was given a custodial sentence having been found guilty of a sexual assault on a woman.
A group of 50 people, mainly men and said to be neighbours and friends, trooped into the Tralee courtroom and shook his hand, some hugged him, as his 24-year-old victim sat nearby.
