Man gets 15 years for abduction and rape

A Corkman who repeatedly raped and tied up a mother after abducting her and her four-year-old son has been jailed for 15 years at the Central Criminal Court.

Michael Murray, aged 42, lured the woman into an apartment by telling her that an elderly woman was dying inside and needed her help.

He then tied her up and assaulted her before taking her son and abandoning him in a city square.
