Sex assaults on nieces after biscuit promise

A 77-year-old paedophile lured his then six-year-old niece with the promise of biscuits to his home where he sexually assaulted her.

At Ennis Circuit Court, the Clare man pleaded guilty to the sexual assault of two of his nieces in the 1990s.

He also pleaded guilty to a fourth sex assault count against the younger niece in 2009 when she was aged 23.
