A FORMER Salesian priest ordered to stand trial over a string of alleged sex crimes has been charged with fresh sex offences.
David Rapson, 59, was last year ordered to stand trial at the County Court after being charged with abusing seven young boys at Salesian College Rupertswood, in Sunbury, between 1973 and 1990.
He is facing charges of rape, gross indecency, and indecent assault.
The former vice principal has now been charged with more offences after a new victim made fresh allegations to new police taskforce SANO.
The taskforce was set up last year to investigate historical and new allegations that have emanated from the Victorian parliamentary inquiry into child sex abuse.
