The court gives Tanner 1 year in prison while some of his victims have years of counseling to keep them sane.Well he will have to face the courts again in the south and see what he gets there.While his victims are ignored by those in charge who did all they could to cover it up and now made public re todays IRISH EXAMINER some way to deal with child sexual abuse.

Thinking of you and others, Robert. Glad this ordeal is finally over for you.
We have fond memories of the time we spent with you and your family on our trip to Ireland.

Well WhiteRabbit It is a very lenient sentence he got compared to the sentence he gave his victims. You wonder will he face the courts in the South - I wonder will he face the court again in the North as more victims come forward. Is that newspaper only available in the south or can you get it in UK / NI Is the story in any other papers Thinking of all the victims still

The article says he was already in jail for a year - so did he get sentenced to a year in prison on top of that? Am I understanding it right?

The article says he had a previous conviction but got a plea deal: "The judge said the defendant had previous convictions in the Republic of Ireland, but his early plea had saved the victim the ordeal of giving evidence before a jury." The 1 year sentence is the sentence handed out to him from the recent hearing: "In addition to a year’s jail sentence, Tanner was ordered to sign the Sex Offenders’ Register and was not allowed to be near children or vulnerable adults for a period of a year." No, he did not serve jail time before.

No, he did not serve jail time before. There would not have been a 'plea deal' as such. Over here it is commonly recognised in these type of cases that by pleading guilty an accused person spares his victim(s) the ordeal of giving evidence at a trial and sometimes in appropriate cases this is taken into account when sentencing is made.

Thanks for explaining what "his early plea had saved the victim the ordeal of giving evidence before a jury" meant. I misunderstood that "early plea" part. Wonder if anyone knows what exactly "the defendant had previous convictions in the Republic of Ireland" refers to??

How many more victims are there You came forward and are much to be admired as are your family Some feel unable to come forward and I understand that and have my sincerest sympathy If he walks out of Prison in 2017 WILL HE ASSAULT AGAIN - Older than him have He will be Dangerman So if other victims were able to come forward they might save more young guys from being interfered with by this creep
Is he still married did his wife standby him or stayed away from him
All victims - you are in my thoughts everyday

We need to remember the hurt & pain suffered, are suffering, by the victims and does who hold them near & dear in their hearts, lives on and ruined lives go on in distress The courts did not and could not take this away. You can clean a wound but it doesn't take away the pain, the fear. This lives on. Their will always be, even if healing does occur, the scars that even if not everyday will ache from time to time, and the not knowing when this will happen. My thoughts are still with you all and you are not forgotten. You will be victims for ever and hopefully I am not the only one that will remember that

Thank you.
I found the press report quite disturbing. It included details that I'd only ever shared with 2 individuals and during the pre-sentencing victim impact assessment interview. I called the newspaper editor and told him that the details were unnecessary, disturbing and would not encourage other victims to come forward. His response was that they could legally print anything that was said in an open court. Totally unsympathetic and ruthless.

I will have to admit that I felt the detail they went in to was totally uncalled for. I felt for you and was sure this was detail that was not for public reading. If they had any consideration for you and how these details would affect other victims they would have refrained The Examiner used to be known and was called The Cork Examiner, so I hope this report wasn't influenced by anyone so as to embarrass you Hope you do realize that although this has understandable added to your hurt it has also proved to the world that NOEL IS A DIRTY LOWLIFE OF A PAEDOPHILE SEX PREDATOR

That is not surprising, news papers are mainly interested in selling papers. The more juicy and attractive/eye catching the contents, the better for them financially.

Now it seems another scandal in fermanagh I hope tanners victims are not forgotten I don't know if still in prison but hope he is. He has ruined and caused so much hurt and pain to his victims that I hope with God's help some more will come forward and report him. This might keep him locked up and keep boys safe. I can assure you that every day I think of his victims and their kin. I agree that it would be easily left in the dark now a new scandal has arisen. But does who really care think of NT's victims every day and THEY WONT BE FORGOTTEN. Do the workers visit NT in prison - any update appreciated - or is he out

Take it he is still in for his short sentence while his VICTIMS struggle by day to day with counselling while its considered you should not talk about it keep it hush hush Some view of child abuse I genuinely feel for you, not knowing if you are a victim or partner / family member of a victim is irrelevant as all are victims, and all his victims Far and Wide. I hope he is still in prison and will serve his full sentence, as menial as it is. Is it a day or two for each life he has ruined. probably not. Do The Workers and Superior Friends realize that this Don't Talk Hush Hush is actually CONDONING CHILD ABUSE as they don't want to admit it happened in THEIR WAY. They know who the victims are so why won't they report him which would make it easier on the victims than they having to approach the Police /Garda. To suspect abuse is sufficient to alert the authorities. I must say that it seems, and I solemnly believe, that the love and comfort shown to the victims is deplorable and not what GOD'S WAY is meant to show forth

My heart bleeds for each victim and ruined life - Those who know me now this and that I can't stand the hypocrisy of those who say "It was Terrible" - but don't mention The War If their hearts bleed for the injured,critically injured, then the blood stains of love and compassion would be evident by their actions.

I just want to remind each of the victims, those who haven't opened up and those we are more than aware of that
YOU ARE NOT FORGOTTEN - REMEMBERED EVERYDAY - AND WILL BE
I can't struggle for you but hope my thoughts help you in your struggle

Update: I have been advised that Noel Tanner was released from prison two weeks ago and is now back at home in Cork with his wife. He has Parkinson's and is unable to feed himself properly. Tanner was in the hospital wing and it is said the staff weren't attentive to him, and if not for the other inmates, Tanner would have starved. His wife travelled North once a week to visit him.

Who said that about him? Is this a ploy to create a sense of poor Noel Tanner?
