BREAKING: High-profile criminal barrister Robert Richter QC has quit George Pell’s legal team ahead of an appeal against the cardinal’s conviction for child sex offences. 9News

High-profile criminal defence barrister Robert Richter QC has reportedly quit George Pell's legal team before the cardinal's appeal bid.

Mr Richter has reportedly claimed he was too emotionally involved in the case and angry at the jury's "perverse" verdict after finding Pell guilty of orally raping a choirboy and molesting another in the 1990s, The Age reported on Tuesday. It was announced last week that Sydney barrister Bret Walker SC would lead the case through the appeal process, with Mr Richter initially flagging he would remain on the defence team.

Barrister Robert Richter 'quits Cardinal George Pell’s legal team' ahead of appealBREAKING Robert Richter, the criminal barrister who represented Cardinal George Pell during his child sex offences trial has reportedly quit the disgraced cleric’s legal team Reads more like he lost and is having a tizzy fit. Prison cells are too small for two egos, it seems Well he's walking away with millions, poor little man. Maybe he'll consider giving it to charities that support victims of sexual abuse? And calling the judgement 'perverse'? The only thing that is perverse is a lawyer talking about 'vanilla' rape of children.
