Sex offender 'Captain' Cooke to see victim's book before publication
An application brought by sex offender Eamonn Cooke to be furnished with a yet-to-be-published book written by a girl whom he was convicted of sexually assaulting as part of his appeal against his conviction and 10-year jail sentence he received has been struck out at the Court of Criminal Appeal.
In 2007 at the Central Criminal Court Eamonn "Captain" Cooke (aged 70), the founder of an illegal Radio Dublin pirate station, with addresses at Heatherview Avenue, Tallaght, and Wheatfields Court, Clondalkin, was found guilty of 42 charges of sexual assault against young girls 30 years ago.
