Today on The KCLR Daily, Brian spoke with Pat Hehir – from Kilkenny was just nine years old when he suffered abuse at the hands of depraved priest Martin O’ Flaherty. O’ Flaherty has been convicted of sexual offending against 29 boys. A member of the Christian Brothers, he was a teacher at the CBS primary school, Stephen Street, Kilkenny, between 1976 and 1981.
Pat along with fellow survivors, have endured many years of trials, interviews, and investigations, to finally see justice. Pat is appealing to any victims of Brother Coughlan, O’Flaherty, or any others: Break the silence, speak to somebody.
