Bláthnaid Raleigh, activist and survivor of rape on her book 'Aftermath'

n 2019 Bláthnaid Raleigh was out on a night out with her friends like most young people when her life changed forever.  After a night out with her friends, Bláthnaid headed back to a house party with people she knew from her hometown of Mullingar. It was back at this house party where she was raped by Jonathan Moran. It wasn’t until five years later when Bláthnaid finally got justice and Moran was handed down a nine-year prison sentence with one year suspended for raping her. Now one year on since the trial, she has written a memoir called aftermath and recounts about how she coped in the years following her attack. Bláthaid joined Pat in studio this morning.
