Socially distant man jailed for sexual assaults on two women

A nine-month jail term has been imposed on a young, socially distant man who sexually assaulted two women walking through Cork City in the early evening.

Michael Kowalski pleaded guilty at Cork Circuit Criminal Court to two charges of sexual assaults on women in different parts of Cork City on the evening of May 24, 2016.

A probation report showed he had a lack of insight into his offending behaviour and a lack of empathy for the victims.
