Woman with multiple personalities gives evidence against her father's sexual offending


READ MORE

Ms Haynes spent the week preparing to give evidence against her father using three of her multiple personalities at the Downing Centre court. The first was as a four-year-old girl. Then as an 11-year-old boy, then as an older male.


Such was the sexual brutality inflicted by her father, Ms Haynes told Judge Sarah Huggett she was prepared to have her real name published.


Showing no emotion or remorse Haynes pleaded guilty to multiple charges of sexual assault which took place between 1974 and 1981 in Dulwich Hill and Greenacre.


Haynes, slightly built, who has been in custody for the last two years, wore prison greens, has receding grey hair and metal framed glasses.


Prosecutor Sean Hughes told the court last month that Ms Haynes had dissociative identity disorder – previously known as  multiple personality disorder – and that it was a sophisticated coping mechanism.
