18 fucking months is an insult, regardless of his age. Disgraceful.
18 months for a serial rapist.
2 years for buying phone credit.
The justice system has failed.

Now, can you imagine this teenager growing up to be a decent member of society? Given proper support…
Nah. He will grow up to be a scambag. There is absolutely no doubt.
I wish the innocent younger cousin well in their life, what a trauma.
There is nothing but horrible things in this story. There is no way of digging deep and finding anything that can even lead to a positive down the line
There is something very wrong with a system that barely responds to a child being raped.
Just feel sick at this…. absolutely sick. I don’t even know what to say.
Just how much bloody rape can a very small population continue to parade through the courts? There’s something absolutely putrid in our society, revealing us to be a very unevolved and uncivilised lot underneath our shiny veneer of super-modern attitudes and awareness.
It’s a fact that Ireland doesn’t care about children being raped.
There’s no other reason to give someone who’s clearly old enough to know that rape is wrong such a disturbingly lenient sentence when they’re a multiple time child rapist.
They’re a danger to everyone and letting them off sends a message to every other predator that taking the risk of being caught is worth it when the consequences are so minimal.
He needs to be in a facility for the rest of his life.
Article is paywalled, was it judge Nolan at it again?
Is it the case that when he turns 18, the juvenile record is sealed? So no one would know….?
