'What I did...was a terrible thing,' man jailed for sexually abusing daughter

A 68-year-old man who pleaded guilty to sexually abusing his daughter before denying it ever happened has been jailed for nine years, with the final year suspended.

The Dublin man added “further insult to trauma” on his daughter when he “flatly denied” to the Probation Service that he had indecently assaulted her, Dublin Circuit Criminal Court heard today.
