i have not read anything so revolting in some time

Dozens of people queued inside a Co Kerry courthouse yesterday to shake hands and sympathise with a man who was jailed for five years for sexually assaulting a woman in Listowel.

Apparently the parish priest thinks he's lovely. Well, that's all right then.

FFS.

Wait, what? He was seen carrying this poor woman to dump her at the skip? And his fiancee is still claiming his innocence and men lined up to shake his hand? JESUS CHRIST WHAT IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE?

ETA: My God, somehow I missed that detail the first time I read the article. Bastard.

To gauchely reply to myself: this article sounds like it's suggesting he drugged her, too.
