David Reilly (50) claimed to be clearing client’s ‘sexual blockages’ during the assault, court told
David Reilly claimed to be clearing client’s ‘sexual blockages’ during the assault, court toldafter being found guilty of sexually assaulting a woman.
She attended another session, accompanied by her daughter, and said Reilly asked if she had been “taken advantage of” in the past. When the woman said she had been, Reilly told her she had sexual blockages and would need to return alone. I went to the cinema to see Small Things Like These. By the time I emerged I had concluded the film was crap
She said Reilly made her touch his bottom and upper thighs and she could see he was aroused. She said his hands were below her belly button and going toward her pubic bone and that she felt “dizzy and intimidated and sick”. “David Reilly’s actions retraumatised me in terms of abuse that I suffered as a child which I had already dealt with long ago and left in the past. The fact that David Reilly asked me if I was taken advantage of in my past, then used that information as a green light to sexually assault me, is something I have found incredibly upsetting and disturbing.”
