A son of Disappeared victim Jean McConville has spoken of his hell at being abused by notorious paedophile priest Brendan Smyth.
Billy McConville, 48, said the predatory sex beast attacked him twice and threatened to “bury him in the woods” if he told anyone.
The evil child rapist was known to visit Rubane boys’ home in Kircubbin, Co Down and carry out his sick fantasies on terrified victims there.
Mr McConville was sent to the home at the age of six when he was orphaned after his mother Jean McConville had been abducted, killed and secretly buried by the IRA in 1972.
He told the Mirror: “He (Brendan Smyth) got me down the farmyard so he did. He interfered with me down there. I didn’t like it.
“I ran away. He told me if I told anybody he would bury me down in the woods where no-one would find me and no-one would believe me.”
Revealing his suffering at the hands of sick Smyth he added: “Every time he came into the home we all ran away from him and kept away.
“I used to be an altar boy and when he came in he used to pick the altar boys. My name was picked but I would not do the altar boy.
“I let on to be sick in bed.”

He added: “He’s meant to be a man of the cloth, sexually and raping people.
“Those brothers knew he was doing this,” he accused.
Mr McConville was speaking after his appearance at the Historical Institutional Abuse Inquiry being held in Banbridge, Co Down where he laid bare harrowing details of twisted sex abuse and horrific beatings by staff.
He described his childhood at the home run by the De La Salle Order as a nightmare he was relived every day since.
