Examination of Louth pensioner backs up rape claim, doctor tells court
A doctor who examined a 71-year-old woman the day she alleges her nephew raped her, has told a jury that injuries to the woman’s genital area are consistent with a sexual assault.
The 51-year-old accused, who cannot be named to protect the identity of the now 73-year-old woman, has pleaded not guilty at the Central Criminal Court to two counts of rape, one of anal rape, sexual assault and sexual assault while armed with a knife in her County Louth home on March 13, 2011.
