A former Victorian priest who worked in
Geelong during much of his career has pleaded guilty to a string of
child sexual assault charges.
73-year-old Robert Claffey was due to stand trial in the County Court on
21 charges, but two were dropped as part of a plea deal.
Claffey abused boys and girls over three decades in areas including
Apollo Bay and Skenes Creek, under the watch of disgraced former bishop
Ronald Mulkearns.http://www.bay939.com.au/news/local-news/67831-former-geelong-priest-admits-to-shocking-abuse
