Does anyone know the name of the Right wing Catholic group who supported the mother and paid for the case in the High court in 2000.?

Ograchas Naoimh Papain.

Tom Young

I believe this was a Circuit Court case.

Judge Reynolds handed down the sentence to the mother in the last few weeks, and as Tom says, she's a judge of the Circuit Court and this was dealt with in Roscommon. I don't know the name of the HC judge who dealt with the injunction...

why wasn't she charged with defilement of a child under 17 or under 15 depending on how old the son was?

Didn't the incidents happen before the current law was passed (2006). The old law was unconstitutional so she couldn't be charged under that.

I have experienced something similar in the family courts where the male abuser was supported by the Opus Dei boys and he walked free.

I really had to witness it to believe it.

I researched to find the truth lay in the amount of money the case created for all the lawyers, Barristers and Judges, and the longer the case went on for the better.

Then the play happy family therapy brings in more money for those involved.

I have witnessed one mother and children ordered home to obey an abusive father/husband- in order to keep the family together.

So, abuse being good for our souls and to toughen us up still exists in secret court- church circles.

The name cannot be made known so as to protect the identities of the children involved.
