Garda Commissioner 'deeply sorry' for abuse-cases failings
The Garda Commissioner says he is deeply sorry that people who sought assistance after they were sexually abused by priests in the Dublin Archdiocese did not receive the level of response or protection they were entitled to expect.
Fachtna Murphy said the events happened at a time when undue deference was shown to religious institutions and figures - "deference that can have no place in a criminal investigation".
