Corkman jailed for sex assault on girl

A Corkman has been jailed for four years for sexually assaulting his former partner’s 13-year-old daughter while he babysat the girl.

Detective Garda Frank Morgan said the man gave the teenager over four cans of beer before he abused her in her bed.

Timothy O’Leary, prosecuting, told the court the victim wishes to waive her right to anonymity to have the accused named. However, as she is still a child, she is not permitted under the law to do so.
