A drunk Catholic priest caught in a car with two prostitutes and his pants around his ankles was a regular customer of the women, the child abuse royal commission heard.
“He was pissed to the eyeballs with his strides around his ankles,” former Victorian policeman Denis Ryan recalled.
Mr Ryan and two other officers had pulled over a car that kept bumping into the gutter in St Kilda in early 1956.
The driver was a well-known prostitute named Hazel, Mr Ryan told the commission.
“There was another prostitute and laying across, with his head on the driver and his feet on the other prostitute, was a man with his pants down around his ankles, his genitals showing,” Mr Ryan said.
