North Richmond principal left to supervise priest amid allegations of child abuse

A FORMER principal of St James primary, North Richmond was told to supervise the school’s parish priest near children, as he continued working, amid allegations of child sexual abuse in the early 1990s, the Royal Commission has heard.
Patricia Taylor told the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sex Abuse this week she was warned about Father Wilfred Baker during an “off the record” meeting with the Catholic Education Office in 1992.
