flag Peter Kelly, 73, to be sentenced Dec. 8 for 28 counts of abusing eight boys at Dublin school in the 1970s–80s.

flag Peter Kelly, 73, a former Dublin private school teacher, will be sentenced on December 8 for 28 counts of indecently assaulting eight boys at Willow Park School in the 1970s and 1980s. flag Convicted after a trial, the victims, now in their 50s, described long-term trauma including PTSD, depression, suicidal thoughts, and relationship issues. flag Abuse occurred in classrooms, changing rooms, and the gym, often disguised as games like "The Muppet Show." flag Some said they were already vulnerable due to prior abuse by colleagues, and one cited systemic failures across the school and its feeder institution. flag Kelly, who had no passport and lived near the school, was removed after a 2000s complaint, but no prosecution followed. flag The judge acknowledged the lasting harm, with sentencing expected to reflect the age of the offenses.
