Sinn Fein TD Pauline Tully has told how she’s still haunted by the horror attack in which she was stabbed 13 times by her ex-husband Pearse McAuley who walked free from prison yesterday.
The brute, 57, served just over seven years for the savage knife assault on Pauline at her Cavan home on Christmas Eve in 2014 when their two young sons were in the house.
The former Provo had been previously jailed for the killing of Det Garda Jerry McCabe in 1996 – a crime that shocked the country.
