Detective Condemns Crime: “No One Should Suffer Like This”
Detective Constable Jason Walsh said: “This is an abhorrent crime that will have a long-lasting effect on the victim. No one should have to go through what they have been through. Protecting the most vulnerable in our communities will always remain our highest priority. When you report these crimes, you will be listened to, you will be believed, and we will do all we can to hold these dangerous individuals accountable for their actions.”
