Victoria Police has released footage of their initial interview with Cardinal George Pell, where they detailed allegations of child sexual offences for which the Catholic official has now been found guilty.
Sky News host Paul Murray says he is not a 'Pell-hater' but believes that he should remain in jail while the verdict is appealed. Mr Murray says the released footage acts as a sort of Rorschach test for those who agree or disagree with the outcome.
Any commentary concerning Pell from Alan Jones?
