In her victim impact statement, the woman said that Kelly called her that day to tell her he was going to take his own life and she met him because of this. She was not expecting Byrne to be there.Groomsman pleads guilty to careless driving causing death of groom on morning of wedding‘There are times I regret having kids. They’re adults, and it’s now that I’m regretting it, which seems strange’
Byrne, also of Corra Choill Park in Prosperous, continued to deny the charges before he was convicted by a new jury panel to two charges of rape, two charges of oral rape and one charge of anal rape. He was jailed for 15 years. The following morning, she was raped by Kelly in a field, before both men again raped her at the same time in another field. The men took turns raping the girl vaginally while the other forced her to perform oral sex on him.When she asked Kelly at one point why he had allowed Byrne to do that to her, he said he “shares all my girls with Joe”.
Referring to Byrne, the woman said he had dragged her through the courts – “It was like I was back in the place with them all over again.” She said his evidence in the trial was “nonsense and delusional; I was sick to my stomach.” She referred to the disparity in age between the teenager and Byrne and said because the girl was raped at the same time by both men, it involved “gratuitous sexual perversion”. She also referred to the “severe and lasting impact on the victim”.
