Sisters urge victims of sexual abuse to come forward as their father is jailed for 10 years

Two sisters who were regularly raped and abused by their father have encouraged other victims to come forward.

Amy Barrett and Melissa O’Keeffe, speaking after Jerry O’Keeffe was jailed for 10 years, sent out a defiant message to other sex abuse victims that it is never too late to seek help.

Both women waived their right to anonymity to speak out publicly.
