Donaldson's defence says his convictions 'obliterate' his achievements; The Irish Times leads instead with the 'lengthy sentence' he accepts

The former DUP leader was in court on Friday before being sentenced for abusing two girls. Irish outlets led with different things: his barrister's words, the sentence he faces, or the victims in the room.

What happened. Jeffrey Donaldson, the former DUP leader, sat in the dock at Newry Crown Court on Friday for a pre-sentence hearing, The Irish Times reports. His barrister, Kieran Vaughan KC, told the court: "I readily accept that these convictions obliterate all those achievements that he has made in his life." The defence accepted that a "lengthy custodial sentence" would follow.

Three outlets, three leads.

Outlet What it leads with Its word for the crimes
The Irish Times the "lengthy sentence" "child sex offences"
TheJournal.ie the barrister's "obliterate" "sex crime convictions"
RTÉ News the victims facing him "across a courtroom" "abusing them as schoolgirls"

The victims. In the text we hold, only The Irish Times carries their impact statements, which the prosecutor, Rosemary Walsh, read out. One victim described the abuse as the "worst moments of her life". The other said her childhood had been "stolen".

The prosecution. Only TheJournal.ie carries the prosecution's line that the "aggravating factors are considerable".

Not settled. - The sentence. The judge, Paul Ramsey, said he would sentence Donaldson "as soon as I can next month". Only The Irish Times reports this. - The convictions. The Irish Times reports that Donaldson is seeking to appeal them. - We hold only one line each from TheJournal.ie and RTÉ News. Their full reports may carry more.

What this is about. A former leader of Northern Ireland's largest unionist party is waiting to be sentenced for sexually abusing two girls.

How it got here. Jeffrey Donaldson was one of the most senior unionists in Northern Ireland. He was MP for Lagan Valley from 1997. He sat first for the Ulster Unionist Party (UUP), then for the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP), which he joined in 2004. He became DUP leader in 2021. He led the party through its boycott of the power-sharing government at Stormont, a protest against the trade arrangements that followed Brexit. The boycott ended in February 2024. In March 2024 he was charged with historical sexual offences. He resigned as leader and was suspended from the party.

In June, a jury found him guilty of 18 offences committed between 1985 and 2008, The Irish Times reports: one count of rape, four of gross indecency with or towards a child and 13 of indecent assault. The verdicts were unanimous. The two victims were children when the abuse happened. By law they cannot be named.

The actors. Donaldson, who is seeking to appeal his convictions, The Irish Times reports. His two victims. Judge Paul Ramsey, who will pass sentence. Donaldson's wife, Eleanor, whom a trial of the facts found to have aided his offending. She plans to appeal that finding.

What is at stake. How long a man who helped shape Northern Ireland's politics for almost three decades will spend in prison. And how the parties he belonged to deal with it: The Irish Times reports that the UUP is running a safeguarding review.

Where it stands. Donaldson is held at Maghaberry Prison. The judge has said he will sentence him next month.

What is being argued about

  • What the defence conceded: a lengthy prison sentence
  • What the victims told the court through their impact statements
  • How each outlet named the crimes
  • When sentencing will happen, and the planned appeal

The bias in this coverageBias

The defence's phrase makes the headlines

Three reports lead with the defence barrister's word 'obliterate', and one of them drops the quotation marks. One report leads instead with the long sentence the defence accepted. The victims are heard in only one report, through the prosecutor reading their impact statements.

3 reports leading with 'obliterate' 1 reports leading with the expected sentence 1 reports carrying the victims' own statements
Scored without the mastheads. Where the two passes differ, both are kept.

The only full account we hold: the 18 counts, the victims' impact statements, the defence accepting a lengthy sentence, and the judge's promise to sentence him next month.
Jeffrey Donaldson’s convictions for child sex offences “obliterate all the achievements he has made in his life” and “is something he will have to live with”, his defence lawyer has told Newry Crown Court. At a pre-sentencing hearing on Friday, Kieran Vaughan acknowledged the “very serious offences” committed by the former DUP leader would result in him receiving a “lengthy sentence”. Donaldson (63) sat in the dock wearing a navy suit and pink tie, flanked by two custody officers. His two female victims, who he sexually abused as children, sat a short distance away in the public gallery of cou
Sentence leads: The headline leads with the long sentence the defence accepted, not with the defence's line about his achievements. — “Jeffrey Donaldson facing ‘lengthy sentence’ for child sex offences, court told”
Victims voice by proxy: The victims are heard only through the prosecutor reading from their statements. They are not named, which the law protects. — “Delivering her submissions, Walsh quoted from victim-impact statements”
Demeanour colour: The report describes how the defendant looked in court. — “Donaldson showed no emotion as prosecution barrister Rosemary Walsh outlined”
