KYNA McAuley has been found guilty of detaining and torturing a young woman in the back shed of her home at Mount Hutton, a jury left with no doubt she was present while the victim was being assaulted, terrorised and threatened.
The victim gave evidence earlier in the trial of two of her then accused captors, McAuley and Madden Paynter, telling the jury she was repeatedly assaulted and threatened, tied up, struck in the head with something hard, had her teeth knocked out, burnt with a cigarette and had boiling water poured over her head during the 24 hours she was held in the shed in Kestrel Avenue in May, 2021.
