Ex-Vatican treasurer Pell returns to jail after losing appeal against sex abuse convictions

MELBOURNE - Former Vatican treasurer Cardinal George Pell will remain in prison for at least another three years after losing an appeal against his conviction for sexually abusing two 13-year-old choir boys, an Australian court ruled on Wednesday.

Pell, wearing a black suit with a priest’s collar, sat quietly in the court with no discernible expression as Ferguson read the judgment. Pell’s spokeswoman, Katrina Lee, said he maintained his innocence and his legal team was examining the judgment to determine whether to lodge a special leave application to the High Court of Australia to hear a final appeal. Pell has 28 days to file the application.Vatican acknowledges Pell abuse decision, says he has right to appeal

The pope has said he would wait for Australian civil justice to take its course before commenting on the case.Pell was taken back to the Melbourne Assessment Prison on Wednesday and is likely to be moved to a medium-security prison in a rural area in the west of Victoria state where most of the roughly 700 prisoners are sex offenders, including priests.

“As might have been expected, there were some things which he could remember and many things which he could not. And his explanations of why that was so had the ring of truth,” the two judges said.

There might be another story in how a Catholic Church Cardinal still be titled 'Cardinal' when he's sitting in prison after being convicted of raping and abusing children. Not just 'Ex-Vatican Treasurer' but 'Current Australian Cardinal'

Finally, some real justice!
