Sex abuser apologises to victim publicly
A “pillar of the community”, who turns 78 today, publically acknowledged yesterday the sexual abuse of a girl back in the 1970s and he apologised to her.
Tony McCarthy, of Fairylawn, Coolatooder, Ballinhassig, Co Cork, was before Cork Circuit Criminal Court for sentencing yesterday after recently pleading guilty to eight counts of indecently assaulting the girl, from when she was aged 12, from 1969 to 1977.
