'House of horrors' mother jailed for incest and abuse

A depraved mother who tortured her six children with years of incest and abuse in a “House of Horrors” in the west of Ireland was jailed for seven years today.

The 40-year-old alcoholic, from Roscommon, admitted she was the worst mother in the world after she put her youngsters through a harrowing catalogue of neglect including forcing her 13-year-old son to have sex with her.
