Devastated to hear that Lynsey Bennett (34) has passed away. She, like so many other brave women, brought the horror of the CervicalCheck scandal home to us all. In the end, all she cared about was securing her daughters’ future. She should have been able to watch them grow 💔

A judge has refused to accept character references on behalf of a convicted rapist from Sligo unless those who wrote them are willing to come to court and take the stand. This would also open up the possibility of their testimony being cross-examined.

9 years. 9.5 years. 10 years. Those were the jail terms handed down today to three Dublin men, who took turns raping a girl on Dollymount Strand in 2016. INCREDIBLY, their supporters roared “miscarriage of justice” afterwards. Thankfully, they were removed from the courtroom.

BIG SHOUTOUT to the cleaning team at the Criminal Courts of Justice. There’s an unsung hero who cleans the public toilets every day. I think he deserves a medal at the best of times, but he’s the most important person in the building right now, and he’s killing it (literally)🦠🥊
