Paying tribute, Ashley’s mother said: “Visiting my own son every day in his care facilities was absolutely heartbreaking to see and cope with for 10 long years, and to know we still don’t have justice so many years on is so devastating.<\/p>\n
“Both Ashley and his family deserve justice which is why I would ask anyone to come forward with information. We want this nightmare to end once and for all.”<\/p>\n
Detective Sergeant Paddy Connell, said: “This was a devastating incident for Ashley’s family and we believe there will be people in the local area with information about the reported assault at the time that may be able to help Ashley’s family get the justice they deserve.<\/p>\n
“Ashley suffered such horrific injuries that he spent the last 10 years of his life in care facilities and was regularly visited by his mother who has suffered unimaginable emotional pain since the assault and has visited him every day over the last 10 years.”<\/p>\n
