Order implicated in abuse scandal

Written By Unknown on Minggu, 11 November 2012 | 08.29

A PSYCHOLOGIST who met dozens of child abuse victims claims three quarters of the Brothers from the St John of God order were suspected to be involved in the scandal.

Michelle Mulvihill has also told Fairfax that Catholic Archbishop of Sydney Cardinal George Pell helped in negotiations for a loan for the order that was later used to pay victims.

The Sydney-based psychologist was employed by the order for nine years, from 1998, to sit in on meetings between victims and representatives from the order. She left the job because of fears suspected pedophiles had too much power in the order.

Fairfax also reported that according to Dr Mulvihill, the order hid documents and did not properly supervise suspected pedophile Brothers.

She said of the 40 to 50 Brothers in the order at the time she was there, around 75 per cent had been subject to allegations.

Dr Mulvihill said the order included Brothers who had carried out "the worst examples of child abuse I have ever heard of", Fairfax reported.

There have been calls for a royal commission into sexual abuse by religious groups.

NSW Premier Barry O'Farrell has already announced a special commission to investigate allegations of child sex abuse by Catholic Church clergy in the Hunter region.
