Sinn Fein's Sordid Moment
Gerry Adams' brother, Liam stands in the dock, but it's Gerry Adams and Sinn Fein that are on trial.
Liam is accused of molesting and raping his daughter, Aine. She claims to have been sexually assaulted by her father from 1977, when she was four, until 1983.
The greater question now has become how much Gerry Adams knew about the incest, when he knew it and whether he concealed the crimes to protect Sinn Fein.
Mr Adams testified he had known for many years about the rape allegations but did not tell police what he knew until 2009, shortly before Aine Adams went public with her accusations on Northern Ireland television.
She accused Sinn Fein of wanting her to stay silent for the party's image.
