A TAMWORTH man has spoken out about his nine years of hell at the hands of pervert priests and masters at a boys’ home.
Derek Finnegan (57) was beaten and sexually abused on an almost daily basis, experiences which he says have ruined his life.
Although those who targeted him are now dead, Derek is desperate to track down other boys from the home who were also abused by those in charge.
“I WOULD hear the key turn in the lock. I would face the wall and hold on to the pillow, I could smell the whisky on his breath. Even now it kills me to think about it.”
Derek was abused in children’s homes from the age of nine. He was 14 when things turned worse and he claims he was raped several times a week for the following two years.
