Mr X Allegation of Sexual Abuse of Two children by Father at Contact Visit. Allegation made by Ex Wife. – NOT GUILTY
“I was in the middle of a very acrimonious contact dispute at court with my ex wife. I eventually obtained unsupervised contact to my two Sons. I met a new partner. I had a week long holiday contact visit arranged during the school holidays in my house in Glasgow. My sons were 4 and 6 years old at the time. My relationship with them was excellent. To my amazement after the week long visit my ex-wife said the boys told her they had been sexually assaulted by me. I knew the background was my ex was jealous of my new relationship and wished to punish me by not seeing my Sons. My wife told the civil court about the sexual abuse. I thought the allegations would have been dismissed out of hand as ridiculous. To my horror I was arrested and taken to court. I was recommended to Mr. John Kilcoyne. I was granted bail. My ex had taken my sons to the police to give statements that I had sexually assaulted them. I had to wait for another year until the case was brought to trial. It was the worst period of my life. I thought I was dreaming. It was explained to me the decision on whether I was guilty or innocent would be determined by 15 members of a Jury. I thought how can I explain my sons Mother has coached the boys into saying this. I was advised I faced a prison sentence and put on the Sex Offenders Register. I had no one to turn to and I had to put my faith in my lawyer John kilcoyne. I went through a 4 day trial and witnessed my sons and ex wife giving evidence through television link. I was extremely impressed by the way the case was conducted. Every small point counted. Mr John kilcoyne then explained every point to the jury in a very persuasive and comprehensive way. The jury went out and waiting for them to come back was nerve wracking. When the jury returned the not guilty verdict my nightmare was over. I will never get over it but I can move on with my life. All I can say if you find yourself in a similar nightmare situation and face a false allegation then I would recommend Mr John Kilcoyne.”
