Man jailed over sexual assault Leeisde
The 57-year-old was jailed for the sexual assault of a 13-year-old.
A 57 year old man who sexually assaulted his wife's then 13 year old sister has been jailed for three years today.
The man - who can't be named to protect the identity of his victim - was convicted of four counts of sexually assaulting the girl on the grounds of a convent in Cork between September and December 1982.
He denied a total of five charges but a jury found him guilty of four of the charges following a three day trial earlier this month.
