Harrowing accounts of psychological, physical and sexual abuse by former residents at Catholic orphanages. “The truth is setting me free today more than this commission knows,”
said a former resident of an orphanage at Termonbacca in Derry, giving
evidence to Northern Ireland’s Historical Abuse Inquiry.
“I have come here to tell the truth and as I am reaching out, I am reaching out in healing and trying to forgive but at this moment I cannot.” Yesterday was the third day of evidence where former inmates of the homes in Northern Ireland related their harrowing stories of psychological, sexual and physical abuse.
