    Anita Byrne was sexually abused by her uncle Paul Farrell over several months in 1992, beginning before her grandfather's funeral, and was threatened to keep silent. Decades later, Byrne confronted Farrell and reported the crime to gardaí. Farrell was found guilty of one count of sexual assault and 10 sample counts of sexual assault in June 2022. He was subsequently sentenced to two years' imprisonment. In June 2023, Byrne waived her right to anonymity and appealed to other victims to come forward.
