Paul Grealish: ‘Today I was in court to get justice for my 10-year-old self’

It was an “incredibly long time. And it does retraumatise you when there are false dawns and then disappointments,” he said.

“So it was a blessing in disguise but nonetheless there’s something seriously wrong with the criminal justice system if 10 years after you sign for your statement, that’s when you might get your result.” Mr Grealish recalled his first interactions with him at school where Caulfield physically assaulted other boys but “in my case it got much worse than that”. He was openly abused in class, an experience that “destroyed” his childhood.

“I understand now what was wrong with me; that the very worst thing that could possibly happen had happened where someone opened that door in my memory which I thought was firmly locked forevermore.”
