George Pell pre-sentence hearing LIVE: Judge Peter Kidd enters court as hearing gets underwayConvicted child sex offender Cardinal George Pell is set to be remanded in custody after he walks into Melbourne's County Court on Wednesday morning.

George Pell pre-sentence hearing LIVE: Judge Peter Kidd enters court as hearing gets underwayJudge Kidd has questioned whether in Pell's mind at the time he thought he could get away with his crimes, which he described as 'utterly brazen', and thought he had a degree of impunity, reports acooperjourno acooperjourno That flies in the face of the forensic experience that untreated pedophiles lacking in remorse or empathy for their victims almost always re offend. acooperjourno What? With 77 years of being that way? Doubt it. acooperjourno At 77 he’d be lucky to get it up, without Viagra! &, by Law, no Dr would prescribe Viagra to a convicted Ped! So Cptn Kidd’s probably right there. It’s not a mitigating circumstance though & should have no bearing on the length of his sentence. Though I bet it will! 🙄
