Rapist's conviction unsafe, court told
The trial of a Cork man jailed for 13 years after being found guilty of raping his former girlfriend's two teenage sisters was "unsafe and unsatisfactory" because information was not disclosed to his legal team until his appeal was being prepared, the Court of Criminal Appeal heard today.
Today the CCA heard that Trevor Casey, who is appealing both his conviction and sentence, that the prosecution did not disclose that one of the complainants in the case had made an allegation that she had been previously sexually abused by another individual some years earlier.
