A former chaplain and an ex-principal of a Roman Catholic care home have been found guilty of abusing boys.
Anthony McCallen, 65, was chaplain at the now defunct St William’s Children’s Home in East Yorkshire, where James Carragher, 75, was head.
The pair denied a total of 87 sex offences against children at the home between the 1970s and the 1990s.
Leeds Crown Court heard Carragher, a convicted sex offender from Merseyside, took boys naked swimming late at night.
The jury heard they both preyed on boys aged between 10 and 16 years old.
