Shocked when my son told me earlier and know he has not been charged yet but what is it with people in power and abuse.

He has been charged!

Yes he's been charged and a woman also charged with aiding and abetting, always thought he was a creep but wouldn't have suspected this

Liv99 nothing shocks me anymore to be honest when you get to my age. Feel so sorry for the victims. Horrible man and have never in my life seen anyone in the dup smile in my life, always look so bitter. Shocking when a woman aides and helps an abuser.

@BOOTS52PollyPrissyPants yes very true, they're a very bitter party, maybe this might be the beginning of the end for them who knows, hopefully the victims get all the help they need

I know imagine keeping that to yourself for all those years out of fear and shame and not their fault at all.

These allegations are incredibly serious. They may be true, or he may be a totally innocent. I really think people should be careful about posting on this topic, and let the legal formalities proceed.

I'm a little younger than him, but I'd have known his family indirectly (through my brother), but have not seen him a 10+ years. He'd ceraintly have a "reputation", but that does not mean those accusations are true.

They are a disgusting party in general and all stick together
Jeff's fellow Kilkeel Dup mla Diane F singing the praises of Loughinisland murderer's coffee Dock , he actually has the audacity to run a stall 5 mins from the atrocity and all the dupers think it's great.

Really? I didn't know that.

@Mystro202 I don't see anything to separate the parties. They are pretty much all equally disgusting. I don't vote, as none of them is worth getting out of bed for.

Mind you the rest of the UK is nothing to write home about either in terms of politicians!
