Steven 'Rossi' Walsh

THE EX-PARTNER of child rapist Steven 'Rossi' Walsh has been found dead in her home in a case of suspected suicide.
The vulnerable mum-of-three had become involved with mobster Walsh (65), after he was released from prison in 2005 and the couple had a child together.
The pretty Dubliner - who was then in her early 20s - had been sucked in by Walsh's claims to be a Robin Hood style bandit.
Walsh had been a leading member of Martin 'the General' Cahill's gang and was once the most feared criminal in Dublin.
However, in 2007, the ageing gangster was arrested in connection with child sex abuse allegations while his young girlfriend was in the early stages of pregnancy. He is currently serving two 10-year prison sentences for a series of sick crimes against underage girls.
A pal of his former partner - who was in her early 30s - said she had cut all ties with the serial paedophile.
He said: "She had left Dublin and tried to put the past behind her. But in my opinion, she never recovered from the pain and humiliation of what happened to Walsh."
