Ex priest and serial child rapist has jail time quadrupled
Stage: Appeal
Plea: Guilty
Outcome: In 2014, Nolan was jailed for seven years for systematically sexually abusing a boy in Co Wicklow over a five-year period beginning in 2009 when the boy was 12. In sentencing Nolan, Ms Justice Karen O'Connor said that but for the fact Nolan was currently serving a lengthy jail term, she would have imposed a sentence of nine years.
