BBC Radio Ulster - Stories in Sound, Silent No More: Fermanagh's Abused Children

People who were sexually abused as children tell us why they are speaking out now. 

After the Impartial Reporter published one man's account of how he was targeted by paedophiles, dozens more local people have broken their silence to reveal how they were abused. 

Seven months ago a man walked into the offices of the Impartial Reporter, Fermanagh's biggest local paper, and told how he had been sexually abused as a child. Since that story was published, dozens of people have come forward to speak about what happened to them decades ago. Rodney Edwards is the reporter who has been responsible for telling those stories. He examines how Fermanagh is dealing with revelations that a generation of children was targeted by predators time and time again and asks is this a watershed moment for the county?
