A woman who sexually abused her son from when he was an infant up until the age of 11, in what a judge described as “a huge betrayal of trust” has had her jail sentence reduced by two years at the Court of Appeal.
Suzanna Hassett of Westbourne Grove, Clondalkin, pleaded guilty to 13 counts of indecent assault on dates between 1984 and 1987, from the year her son was born until he was three years old.
The 66-year-old also pleaded to four counts of sexual assault on dates between 1992 and 1995 when her son was aged seven and 11 years old. Hassett has no previous convictions.
