George Pell found guilty of child sex abuse: ‘You’re a monster’

It was a Sunday in 1996 when two choirboys stole off to sneak a sip of church wine. George Pell, still in his robes, caught them.

George Pell found guilty of historical child sex abuse charges


Cardinal George Pell has been found guilty of child sex abuse and is facing a significant jail term after a sensational trial in Melbourne.

The third most powerful man in the Vatican and Australia’s most senior Catholic has been found guilty of raping one choirboy and molesting another in Melbourne’s St Patrick’s Cathedral 22 years ago.

A jury delivered the unanimous verdict on December 11 in Melbourne’s county court, but the result was subject to a suppression order because of a secret second trial involving another two accusers — which has since collapsed — and could not be reported until now.

Chief Judge Peter Kidd said Pell, 77, would be remanded in custody after a pre-sentence hearing on Wednesday. He is facing a maximum 50 year prison term and is likely to be sentenced within the next fortnight.

“This is in no way a sign of the sentence Cardinal Pell will face,” Judge Kidd said about his decision to grant Pell short reprieve.

Pell, flanked by his minders and police, was accosted by members of the public as he left court using a walking stick, following the verdict this morning.

“You’re a monster … burn in hell, Pell” one person yelled.

“You’re a disgrace.”
