Hide Ad“She sustained significant injuries which she is still undergoing treatment for now, but also underneath the physical scars are the mental scars that this prolonged campaign of domestic abuse has had on her.
“Prior to March this year, none of the domestic abuse she endured was reported to the police. It has taken immense bravery for her to report what has happened to her and I know she hopes that her case may help give others the courage to come forward.
“Geary is a dangerous man who is now in prison facing responsibility for his actions.”-
