Usual suspects use child sex abuse to heighten their image

Fine Gael and Labour have launched a joint call into why a child rapist was released a few weeks back. They’ve demanded a full and independent investigation into the matter.
http://www.rte.ie/news/2006/0625/sex.html

I’d like to second this call, if I might be so bold.

I’d also like to call for a full and independent investigation into why Fine Gael and Labour voted with the Government in the ‘fix’ for the problem that allowed a child rapist to be freed. A ‘fix’ that allows a child who has been raped, be questioned in court proceedings, and be further objectified and abused by his/her rapist.
