WESTERN Australia’s inquiry into child abuse at state-run boarding houses has been told of yet another depraved warden.
The inquiry, led by former Supreme Court Justice Peter Blaxell, has focused previously on events at the St Andrew’s Hostel in Katanning in the 1970s and 80s, where convicted pedophile brothers Dennis and Neil McKenna abused children in their care.
Details emerged on Wednesday of the bizarre behaviour of the late Roy Wenlock, who was warden at St Christopher’s Hostel at Northam, 100km northeast of Perth, from 1963 until 1977 when he was forced to resign.
