A Catholic priest broke down in tears today at his sex abuse trial as he recalled his gay and S&M pornography collection.
Father Anthony McSweeney, 68, denied molesting three teenage boys at Grafton Close children’s home in Hounslow, west London, between 1979 and 1981.
But he admitted being shown a child sex porn film by his close friend, the care home manager John Stingemore, 72 – who was found dead weeks before the beginning of his trial.
McSweeney did not tell the authorities as it “did not occur” to him.
He also confessed to going to Amsterdam’s notorious red light district with Stingemore, where he bought gay porn.
