Clare man to be sentenced for rape of ex-girlfriend
A Clare resident will be sentenced tomorrow morning at the Central Criminal Court for raping his pregnant ex-girlfriend at gunpoint, threatening to kill her and breaking her front teeth at her home over two years ago.
The 44-year-old man, who suffers from bipolar disorder, was found guilty by a jury following a 14 day trial last January of rape, anal rape, false imprisonment, possessing a fire arm and threatening to kill the woman at her home on September 9, 2007.
