JENNIFER Ingham was a vulnerable 16-year-old schoolgirl suffering bulimia when her parish priest, Father Paul Rex Brown, sexually assaulted her – but that was only the start.
When she left school, the Lismore priest got her a job as a waitress in Sydney and arranged for them to meet at the Sydney University Motel in Glebe for sex.
He even paid for her to fly up to stay at his home at St Joseph’s Parish Church at Tweed Heads where the sex continued, Ms Ingham told the royal commission into child sex abuse yesterday.
Father Brown was removed from his office in 1986 because he drank too much and has since died – but the priest who Ms Ingham claims to have told about her sexual abuse, and who cried over it, is still very much alive and denying he even knew her, the commission was told.
