Man sexually assaulted ex-partner’s daughter, 13

Six women and six men took four hours to find a Corkman guilty of sexually assaulting his ex-partner’s daughter on occasions when she was only 12 to 13 years old.

David Buckley, aged 32, of 4 Convent Rd, Doneraile, Co Cork, denied the sexual assaults which he carried out between December 2009 and March 2011 at his then partner’s home in another area in Co Cork.

Judge Seán Ó Donnabháin remanded Buckley in custody for sentencing at the February sessions of Cork Circuit Criminal Court.
