CLAIMS BISHOP OF CLONFERT AWARE OF FURTHER ABUSE AFTER PRIEST WAS MOVED

Date Published: 08-Oct-2012

It’s reported the Bishop of Clonfert John Kirby has been aware since the mid-1990s that a priest he moved following allegations of child sex abuse continued to abuse children in his new parish.

According to the Irish Times, Bishop Kirby was aware of this information despite asserting one two occasions last month that the priest did not go on to abuse children in his new parish.
