t is just over a month since the Diocese of Dromore issued a statement regarding the abusive activities of Fr Malachy Finegan, former president of St Colman's College, Newry and parish priest of Clonduff parish.
That statement, which disclosed the fact that 12 allegations of abuse had been made against the priest, who died in 2002, made the wider public aware of the appalling and inexcusable behaviour of this man and along with a statement from the school, came ahead of a BBC Spotlight investigation into this matter.
