Its about time a substantial sentece has been
given for a crime such as this and not the usual 5 years with time off because hes a foreign national.

Its still not long enough though, this animal should never walk the streets again.

In case it leads to the identification of the victims.

The sentence is decent, but if a person shows no remorse when it comes to release in lets say 12 years time, then they shouldn't be released.

He'll have to serve another 5 years if he doesn't complete rehabilitation for sex offenders in prison. Would still like to see this lad tagged for life tbh.

Named on another link below main story. Shocking attacks but 18 years better than a lot of other sentences I have read.

But they weren't known to him or related to him were they?

Hopefully post-sentence he'll be deported back to wherever he came from.

Agree people like this should be tagged for life. I am not convinced sex offenders can be rehabilitated. Their bodies are not wired properly to do things like this.

He's named in articles in the irish times and rte from March. Wonder how the judge thinks he can be retrospectively un-named.

It's very odd.
And one of his victims did a television interview on RTE last week to describe the devastation brought about by this savage attack. I felt terrible for her.

This neanderthal should be serving at least 30 years for these crimes.
The judicial system has let down not only the victims in this case but Irish society in general.

Thank God the Judge gave consecutive sentences. This was after the Probation Report contained a number of errors and was replaced by a corrected report.

"Medium risk of re-offending" ffs.

It's a bit confusing as to why there's a block on his name now. There's by far more articles written about him where he's named than ones he's not named.

This is a very long sentence by Irish court standards.

It’s an attempt to deflect from serious problems in the Irish legal system early on.

Take this probation report excuse for deeming him a medium chance of reoffending( second lowest)

The probation officer replied that it was "an actuarial assessment" and for the purposes of a sentence hearing the offences were counted as one because it was one sentence hearing

That’s insane. The judge was right to question it.

Not to detract from the savage crimes but, is this the norm

a jury of eleven men

Would a jury of men have been chosen for a particular reason? I thought a jury would always be a mix of men and women?

Quite the opposite. The continual reference to Garlic man and TV licences detracts from any serious conversation about the criminal justice system. Best to nip that tired old line of conversation in the bud.

I remember correctly from the ulster rugby rape thread I think statistically juries made up of more women are less likely to convict

I doubt they were chosen, they just happened to be the panel. I'm unclear how much jury selection goes on in Ireland. One of the jurors must have bowed out for some reason.

Oh that's interesting, didn't know that.

Ah, I must be letting American TV shows influence me. I had this image in my head of the jurors being chosen. Yeah, I figured there was probably 12 men originally.

I don’t understand why he wouldn’t be named now. His picture and names are up on news stories from March.

He is a complete coward, spineless, pathetic creature and deserves to suffer for the rest of his life for what he did to those women.

The_Kew_Tour

He was named few months ago. Eastern European fella drugged up to the hills.
