A man who admitted sexually abusing his daughter at least once a week for ten years has walked free from court after a judge jailed him for three years but granted him bail pending an appeal.
Patrick O'Brien, 72, pleaded guilty to 16 charges of rape and indecent assault at Mackintosh Park, Pottery Road in Dun Laoghaire from 1973 to 1982.
His daughter Fiona Doyle said the abuse was as frequent as having dinner.
Mr Justice Paul Carney said it was one of the worst case of abuse of a daughter one could possibly find and it was at the top of the scale.
However he said he had to consider the health position of the accused.
He said he was aware that if he imposed a severe custodial sentence and supended it, it would go out to the community in soundbites that in one of the most serious cases of serial rape of a daughter, the accused walked.
He sentenced O'Brien to 12 years in prison, but suspended the final nine and granted him continuing bail pending an appeal.
