Bathurst Sex Abuse Case: Too Sick for Court
A priest charged with indecently assaulting three students at a Bathurst high school has failed to appear in court due to illness. Father Hugh Edward Murray, 79, was arrested earlier this week at his Marsfield home and charged with five counts of indecent assault on a male. The charges relate to the assaults of three students at St Stanislaus College in Bathurst, between 1966 and 1978. Murray is the ninth person to be charged by Strike Force Belle, which was set up to investigate allegations of sexual and indecent assault against students at two Bathurst schools between 1960 and 1993.Click Here For The Full Story......
