Lenient sentences deter sex attack reporting
As public anger grows after another sex attacker walked free from court after he was ordered to pay €15,000 for assaulting a teenager, campaign groups have said sentences must fit the crime.
Graham Griffiths, aged 29, from Co Louth, walked free from Dublin Circuit Criminal on Wednesday after admitting to sexually assaulting a 17-year-old girl. He pushed her against railings and dragged her to the ground.
