About this episode

Serial child abuser Bill Kenneally sparked outrage when he joked and laughed through testimony at a public inquiry this week.


Kenneally appeared to relish the attention as he described how Gardaí had known about his crime since 1987.


But behind the headlines caused by Kenneally's testimony, the inquiry is seeking to discover how the state failed his victims.


Niall Donald speaks to Saoirse McGarrigle about the work of the Commission of Inquiry.
