George Pell, former Arch-Bishop of Melbourne, once economic controller of the Vatican, currently cardinal of the Catholic Church, has another title to add to this decorated list: once-convicted-but-now-quashed paedophile who was found guilty-but-not-anymore of sexually penetrating a boy under 16, and four counts of “indecent assault of a child under the age of 16”.
The Victorial police made no comments, nor did the politicians who supported Pell during his trial.

“I see you. I hear you. I believe you.”
