Man raped girlfriend and her mother

A man raped his girlfriend before raping her mother days later after breaking into her house and holding a knife to her throat, a court has heard.

The mother, aged 60 at the time, was saved when her daughter heard the rape taking place in the background of a voicemail the attacker had left her by accident.

The 47-year-old Waterford man has previously served a sentence for raping his daughter.
