Ciara Mangan, now 30, expressed relief and a sense of healing after her assailant, Shane Noonan, was denied an appeal against his seven-year sentence for raping her when she was 18. Mangan shared her tumultuous journey of seeking justice and the lasting impact of the ordeal, as she felt uncertain about the previous ruling by the justice system. Now, she believes that her healing can truly start following this significant decision.
"Two years ago, I thought that I got my justice, and the justice system put a question mark over that for the last 22 months. So, today, I got justice."
"A woman (30) who was subjected to 'a predatory, violent rape' by a young man at a party when she was just 18 has said that her healing is going to begin now."
