If Pell gets out untill an appeal is held, will Pell have to wear an ankle tracking device as he is now a convicted
Mick, the Royal Commission found that while 61% of all congregational abuse was in the Catholic Churches, Catholic parishioners made up nearly 70% of all parishioners. Ergo, despite lower numbers of cases, abuse was proportionally even worse in other churches and institutions. All these grubs are getting off scot-free whilst the focus is on Pell/Catholicism. There's a load more work to be done here, all the poor bastards abused by the Scouts, Anglicans, State children's homes etc are being forgotten. That's the next wave...
The second appeal against a custodial sentence was dropped after the court transcript revealed that Pell's SC had agreed with a gaol term being part of sentencing.
And that was a smart legal move for Pell....that offers him some small degree of leniency
Pell's defence team may ask for an exorcism in lieu of custody, quoting the pope, " its the work of Satan" fucking laughable if it was true.
