A DEPRAVED mother carried out a vile campaign of sex abuse on her six kids – including having intercourse with her 13-year-old son.
The 40-year-old alcoholic put her children through years of incest and neglect in a “House of Horrors” in the west of Ireland.
The woman even admitted she was the “worst mother in the world” after pleading guilty to a string of sex abuse and neglect charges.
The court heard she had forced her 13-year-old son to have sex with her.
Today the woman, of Roscommon, who is the first in the history of the Irish state to be convicted of incest, was jailed for seven years.
The mum, who cannot be named to protect her children, was caged after she admitted ten charges at Roscommon Circuit Court.
They included two of incest, two of sexual abuse, six of neglect and wilful ill-treatment and neglect of the children between 1998 and 2004.
Failed
The court heard that social workers were called in as far back as 1996.
Health chiefs tried to take the children into care in 2000 but a group, described in court as a Catholic right-wing organisation, helped the mother financially and she won a High Court case blocking the care order.
The offences took place at the family’s three-bedroom bungalow in Co Roscommon, which was dirty, strewn with rubbish, cold, damp and had dead rats and mice inside and out.
Judge Miriam Reynolds told the court that the children had been failed by everybody.
She said: “Any possibility of them having a normal and proper life has been stolen from them by this woman who called herself their mother.
“They feel guilty. They feel they did something wrong. I can assure them that they did not.”
The judge has also suggested that new laws may be needed to deal with incest cases involving mothers.
She added: “The children have to know that this is wrong and that their mother was punished for it. She must be punished for it.”
Judge Reynolds imposed ten sentences ranging from 18 months to seven years – the longest term for sexual assault – all of which will run concurrently.
THE trial of Austrian dungeon brute Josef Fritzl, 74, for murder, rape, incest and imprisonment begins on March 16.
