Extradited Catholic priest charged with sexually assaulting another child 30 years ago
A Catholic priest who was extradited earlier this year over historic sex abuse charges has been charged with sexually assaulting another child more than 30-years-ago. Child abuse detectives travelled to New South Wales and arrested the then 79-year-old at a Granville property after allegedly offending against a child while visiting WA in 1990. He faced Perth Magistrates Court in February with two counts of unlawful indecent dealings of a child under the age of 13. Further investigations revealed the man — now 80-years-old — also allegedly sexually assaulted a 13-year-old girl during his 1990 visit to WA. He was charged with aggravated indecent assault and aggravated sexual assault and is due to face Fremantle Magistrates Court on Friday. Inquiries are ongoing. Anyone who has been a victim of sexual abuse or has information about someone being abused is asked to contact police on 131 444 or report the information via the Safe2Say anonymous online reporting platform.
