Yup. The priest is still in good standing. And he laughs? Giggles about this?
He reported the abuse to the Archdiocese of Adelaide more than four years ago but the church has not stood the priest down.
Contacted by The Weekend Australian yesterday, the priest laughed and said: "I can't discuss matters that are confidential." Asked if he had read Archbishop Hepworth's allegations against him, he giggled and said: "Good try but I won't say anything."
Documents obtained by The Weekend Australian show Archbishop Hepworth's ordeal began in 1960 when he was 15 and newly enrolled at Adelaide's St Francis Xavier Seminary.
