A former Christian Brother jailed for sexually abusing
three young boys at a school for the deaf has had his prison sentence
reduced by the Court of Appeal because the Circuit Court operated on the
basis of an incorrect maximum sentence.
John McCabe (55), of
Kilshane Cross, North Road, Finglas, had pleaded guilty at Dublin
Circuit Criminal Court to six counts of indecently assaulting three
young deaf boys on dates between 1981 and 1984.http://www.sundayworld.com/news/courts/christian-brother-who-abused-deaf-boys-has-sentence-cut-on-appeal
