Paedophile stabbed by fellow inmate at Castlerea Prison
A 62-year-old convicted paedophile was treated in hospital overnight after having his neck slashed by a fellow inmate at Castlerea Prison in Co Roscommon yesterday morning.
Christopher Cosgrove, a former Marist Brother and teacher from Claremorris in Co Mayo, was stabbed by a prisoner with a home-made blade in what prison sources said was an unprovoked attack.
