The last time this happened and the man was caught in the act it led to nothing. Though there was a court case, because the victim (a grown up woman with Down Syndrome) could not articulate the details when cross examined the perpetrator was let go free. Because he was given the benefit of the "Innocent until proven guilty" thing as stated under law. The family were devastated by the crime and the verdict. Anyway the perpetrator legged it back to Poland straight away. Though the local Gardai (Police) will put their heart and soul into catching this perpetrator in the newspaper story, I fear that the outcome will be the same. It probably will not even get to court as the victim would be annhilated under cross examination. Having a daughter with special needs this stuff really gets to me. If it were my daughter, I know what I'd be doing with my savings. 1982 88" 2.25 diesel 1992 110 200tdi csw -Zikali 2008 110 2.4 tdci csw-Zulu 2011 110 2.4 tdci csw-Masai |

Certainly is. I can think of a trio of them opposite my home!
