Dead - Yes.The poor man is dead and proven in to be innocent.
I know of two different people who grew up in Ballarat who have stories about Pell being a creep. Pretty much goes for any Catholic who grew up there around the time.He is certainly guilty of hiding and enabling peadophile priests who went on to commit more crimes. So childrens lives were destroyed by Pells inaction. The Royal Commission believed he covered it up.
Was he a peadophile himself. It's not proven but I know a Ballarat family who say he molested their child, they have claimed this for decades before it all came to a head. He was a grub, a monster. Good riddance to bad rubbish.
I am a survivor of childhood clerical abuse. For many years I attended a mens group of the same (not all clerical). Within that group were more than one person who claimed to have been sexually abused by George Pell. I am of the belief that he and a group of survivors received some form of compensation from the Church for their abuse, amazingly without needing to start legal proceedings as they were almost headed off by the Church to keep things quiet. Child Sexual Abuse isn’t a political left or right thing, it’s traumatic and life changing. So what I hate is ********s like you posting shit you know nothing about.God, are we still going on about this?
The poor man is dead and proven in to be innocent.
I know how you lefties hate facts but JC give it a rest already.
Even Dan and the deplorable Victorian judicial system that railroaded the innocent man have the common decency to accept the truth.
Especially when I'd suspect there's at least a 50% chance they're just trolling.Child Sexual Abuse isn’t a political left or right thing, it’s traumatic and life changing. So what I hate is ********s like you posting s**t you know nothing about.

He was a PaedophileEspecially when I'd suspect there's at least a 50% chance they're just trolling.
I'd say that - at best in terms of his own culpability - Pell was complicit in giving the reputation of the church a higher priority than the safety of dozens, if not hundreds of future victims of sexual abuse by moving paedophile priests around to different parishes, instead of immediately investigating and turning them over to the police.
He was a Paedophile
the indications are he was a pedo . what we know is he turned a blind eye to child abuse which is equally hideous.He was a Paedophile
Which makes Hollingsworth no betterthe indications are he was a pedo . what we know is he turned a blind eye to child abuse which is equally hideous.
as i mentioned earlier, passing in his holy orders is a small thing for hollingworth. doubt he had much choice. giving up his enormous lifetime gov't pension would have some meaning. which, of course, he won't do.Which makes Hollingsworth no better
It all started with Monsignor John Day in Mildura, he got away with it, had Ridsdale there for a time and bizarrely Paul David Ryan lived with him for a time whilst a minor. Not hard to join the dots. O’Collins firstly and then Mulkearns both culpable in conjunction with the boys in blueThere are more than a couple of people in Ballarat with Pell allegations. Unfortunately some of them relate to family members who took their own lives because they were also victims of that utter piece of excrement Ridsdale.
Mulkearns was also culpable in this cover-up.
You'd think it would be hard to find a more despicable trio of Australian clerics acting in concert.
Sadly not. The Catholic Church seems to feature too many of these twisted bastards acting in unison.
Yes but “it wasnt of much interest to him”It all started with Monsignor John Day in Mildura, he got away with it, had Ridsdale there for a time and bizarrely Paul David Ryan lived with him for a time whilst a minor.

Now that Australia’s actual greatest Catholic of the 21st century (RIP Bob) has passed away have any of the Abbott/Howard/Dutton mob who shed bucketloads over Pell even bothered to put out a forced press release acknowledging Father Bob’s existence or does this just confirm their support for a “great Catholic” was indeed support for a fellow ideological conservative, even one who r*ped kids and covered up for his mates?
To follow up this post, several weeks later and neither John Howard, Tony Abbott, Peter Dutton nor any of the right wing Pell acolytes have said a single word in memoriam of Father Bob.
Just proving they’re the absolute scum they appear to be.
they really couldn't give a toss-bag about victims. it always has been and always will be about brand protection and saving money.
Indoctrination is right up there with the worst forms child abuse - yet it is practiced world wideI was forced into this appalling cult as a child, like millions of others. I still deal with their damage in one way or another daily. My parents put me in their hands because they'd been brainwashed too. The single thing I'm proudest of is that I broke away and protected my own kids from them. The sexual abuse may have been reduced, but the psychological damage all that hocus pocus bullshit does is as frightful as ever.
