Victim awarded €315,000 for ‘systematic’ abuse at school
Mr Justice Iarfhlaith O’Neill said he “entirely rejected” the denials by former Brother Christopher Cosgrove, with an address at Claremorris, Co Mayo, of having sexually abused the man, now in his 50s, between 1969 and 1972.
The judge also ruled the Order was vicariously liable for the acts of Br Cosgrove and the then school manager, the late Canon Collins had, in his capacity as manager, a 10% liability.
