Sex abuser Bill Kenneally has said he told gardaí in a 1987 meeting about his abuse of boys, but “heard nothing” from officers again on the matter until 25 years later.
The former Waterford basketball coach was giving evidence at the Commission of Investigation examining the response of gardaí and others to allegations of sexual abuse made against him.
Kenneally, aged in his early 70s and formerly of Summerville Avenue, Waterford City, is serving a prison term after pleading guilty to 10 sample counts of indecently assaulting 10 boys at various locations in Waterford in the 1980s.
Kenneally began his evidence on Tuesday - and this continues this morning (Wed).
Damien Tiernan has been speaking on 'Deise Today to to two survivors of Kenneally - Barry Murphy and Simon O'Toole (Simon speaking out for the very first time) - about their feelings on seeing their abuser giving his evidence.
