Ms Tyler quoted Molly from the time as saying: “Every time it got worse. He would hold his hand there a little longer.”
The recording, in which Jason’s voice is heard in court for the first time, was made in February 2015 on Pancake Tuesday. Jason and Molly argued at the dinner table. After returning to Ireland with Jason’s family, both children recanted their stories of their father’s abusive behaviour in 2016 and again in 2021.
