Patrick Kelly, 22, and Joseph Byrne, 44, both from Corra Choill Park, Prosperous were jailed for their crimes.
A 21-year-old woman has spoken out about how she was raped by two men when she was just 16.
Patrick (PJ) Kelly, 22, and Joseph Byrne, 44, both from Corra Choill Park, Prosperous were jailed for their crimes.
The woman described the ordeal in a victim impact statement, saying she felt like a "rag doll" and was "paralysed and trapped".
She also spoke of the lasting impact on her mental health.
She was raped in four different locations, including a town in Kildare, a car, Joseph Byrne's home, in a field while she was walking with Kelly and in another field.
Kelly pleaded guilty to three counts of rape, while Byrne was convicted by a jury of multiple rape charges.
They were sentenced to a total of 26-and-a-half years in prison.
The rapes occurred over one day on an unknown date between March 2020 and June 2020.
Mr Justice Paul McDermott said "they each attacked her at the same time and encouraged each other".
