An Australian court has dismissed the convictions against Cardinal George Pell, the most senior Catholic ever found guilty of child sex abuse.
In this Feb. 26, 2019, photo, Cardinal George Pell leaves the County Court in Melbourne, Australia. Australia’s highest court on Tuesday, April 7, 2020 will judge Pell’s appeal against convictions for molesting two teenage choirboys more than two decades ago. But the legal battle over the world’s most senior Catholic convicted of sexually abusing children may not end there.
Pell was also convicted of indecently assaulting one of the boys by painfully squeezing his genitals after a Mass in early 1997. All the charges were dropped by prosecutors or dismissed by courts in preliminary hearings over the years except the cathedral allegations.Pell did not testify at either trial or at the subsequent appeals.
As police detailed the abuse allegations, Pell responded: “Absolutely disgraceful rubbish. It’s completely false. Madness.”
