Armidale Express

AN alleged child sex abuse victim who came forward after hearing his priest’s name on the radio will give evidence at a committal hearing.
The former priest was committed to Armidale District Court in September for 76 historic child sex offences yesterday.
He pleaded guilty to 45 charges, and not guilty to 31 charges at Armidale Local Court. Fifty charges were dismissed.
However, three charges relating to one victim, now a truck driver, must face a committal hearing to see if there is enough evidence to proceed.
