FORMER CATHOLIC PRIEST SUBMITS PLEA OFFER

A former Catholic priest facing 137 historic child-sex charges has made a brief appearance in Armidale Local Court, alongside solicitor Glen Kee.
The Crown is now considering a formal plea submitted by the 59-year-old man’s defence.
He’s accused of abusing 11 victims across the New England north west during the 1970s and 80s.
Magistrate Karen Stafford continued the man’s bail today, as well as a non-publication order protecting his identity.
