Jeffrey Donaldson convicted of 18 abuse charges by Newry jury.

Deep childhood abuse consequences cannot be ignored anymore. On Monday, twelve local jurors within Newry's crown court inside Northern Ireland convicted the former unionist political leader. The sixty-three-year-old faces a potential prison sentence for historical wrongdoings spanning from 1985 until 2008, while his sixty-year-old wife Eleanor was shown to have actively assisted his actions despite her own mental health issues.
