Jailed Paedophile Priest "Abused a Dozen More Children" As 12 More Alleged Victims Come Forward

A caged paedophile priest who is facing another sex abuse charge may have forced himself on a dozen more victims, police believe.

The serial sex beast, who was recently jailed for the horrific abuse of a child, was brought before the courts last month over an alleged attack on a young boy.

The cleric, a pillar of his community in Ireland before the revelations, paid his victims following his horrific attacks on them.

And now police in the region believe there are at least 12 more victims to come forward.

Sources have told the Irish Mirror the shamed priest will have to spend a lot more time in court in the coming months.

The source said: “He got a long prison sentence a while back but I can see him never getting out. There are enough young men thinking of coming forward which will see this man live out his remaining years behind bars.

“The town was completely divided when he was first charged a number of years ago. And even following his conviction, a large number of people stuck by the cleric.

“Gardai were overwhelmed by how many young lads came forward. These are grown men now. A few believed their stories wouldn’t be taken seriously as the priest was so popular. That’s all changed now.”

Police received several complaints from members of the public after the priest’s conviction but with the town divided about the cleric, victims waited until he was caged for his crimes before making their own claims.

A judge described him as a calculating predator who exploited his victim and engaged in horrific abuse.
