  • Catholic Archdiocese of Melbourne Media Release –Tuesday 8 April 2008
    CATHOLIC ARCHDIOCESE OF MELBOURNE MEDIA RELEASE –TUESDAY 8 APRIL 2008 VALE ARCHBISHOP FRANK LITTLE DD KBE The former Catholic Archbishop of Melbourne Thomas Francis Little died peacefully in his sleep last night at his home in Camberwell at the age of 82 years. He was appointed the sixth Archbishop of Melbourne by Pope Paul VI, succeeding Cardinal Knox on the 1 July 1974. He resigned from the position in 1996 for health reasons. He is predeceased by his parents Gerald and Kathleen (nee McCormack) and his brother Jack and is survived by his brother Gerald. He was a passionate supporter of the Essendon Football Club. Melbourne’s Catholic Archbishop Denis Hart said today that the death of Archbishop Little will be felt deeply by many people in Melbourne. “Archbishop Little will be fondly remembered as a dedicated caring leader of the Church for 22 years,” Archbishop Hart said today. “His sincere pastoral style and concern for his people was admired by all who met him.” Archbishop Little was born in Werribee on 30 November 1925. He entered Corpus Christi College, then at Werribee, in 1943 to begin studies for the priesthood. In 1947, he continued his studies at Propaganda Fide College, Rome, and was ordained to the priesthood in the chapel of the College on 3 October 1950, by Cardinal Fumasoni Biondi. For the next three years he pursued his doctoral studies through the Urban University in Rome and was awarded his doctorate in 1953. On his return to Melbourne in 1953 he was appointed as assistant priest to Carlton, then assistant at St Patrick's Cathedral in 1955.

    Appendix 7 - No 1: The price of battling paedophilia Date September 17, 2012 3 reading now Read later Barney Zwartz Former teacher Graeme Sleeman lost his career, health and financial security when he took a stand against a sexually abusive priest in Doveton. Graeme Sleeman. Photo: Penny Stephens GRAEME Sleeman knew Peter Searson was trouble even before Searson arrived as parish priest of Doveton in 1984. Searson liked to dress in military fatigues, often carried a revolver, and had a bad reputation when it came to money - and sexually abusing children. The two locked horns immediately when Sleeman, principal of the Holy Family school, told the priest he knew of his reputation and would be watching him, and Searson replied that as priest he was the boss. Their main battleground was bizarre: the sacred Catholic sacrament of confession, where Searson could get the children alone and unsupervised. "I was concerned about his addiction to confession," Sleeman recalls. Peter Searson (bottom row, second from right) and Carmel Rafferty (top row, second from right). "Sometimes he would get children to sit on his lap, or kneel between his legs." Later he would help a church investigation into two sexual assaults during confession. Advertisement Sleeman was a respected educator and a devout Catholic. The latter cost him his career, his health and economic security for his family, as he sought to protect the children under his charge from a predatory priest while also trying to protect the good name of the church. When Sleeman resigned as principal in 1986 in a vain bid to force the church and Catholic Education Office (CEO) to act against Searson, he was besieged by media wanting to know about the priest's behaviour.

  • Pell, Hart Were Leaders in Addressing Child Sex Abuse
    KL Pell, Hart were leaders in addressing child sex abuse Gerard Henderson Published: June 4, 2013 - 12:14PM Cardinal George Pell in Sydney and Archbishop Denis Hart in Melbourne have become public targets for criticism concerning sexual abuse by priests and brothers within the Catholic Church in Australia. The evidence suggests that paedophiles have been active in religious and secular institutions and elsewhere over the years, particularly between the 1950s and the 1980s. The situation within the Catholic Church has been particularly serious. During their recent appearances before the Victorian parliamentary inq uiry into child abuse, Pell and Hart were subjected to hectoring by some parliamentarians, along with occasional demonstrations and generally hostile media coverage, particularly on the ABC and in The Age . Yet it appears they were among the first Catholic leaders in the world to address the issue in a serious way. A lot of the commentary on this issue has been replete with an ignorance as to how the Catholic Church operates by those who should know better. For example, on ABC1's News Breakfast last week Way ne Chamley of Broken Rites said the Church "runs on anarchy". It doesn't. Last July, the Four Corners program ''Unholy Silence'', by Geoff Thompson and Mary Ann Jolley, failed to make the point that Pell is not responsible for archdioceses or dioceses othe r than his own. Each bishop reports direct to the Pope in what is an authoritarian structure. More seriously, Four Corners refused to run Pell's comment to this effect, either in the program itself or in the extended interview which is on the Four Corners website.

  • In Today's Round of Hearings for the Royal Commission Into Institutional
    In today’s round of hearings for the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse, the Commission heard from Assistant Commissioner Stephen Fontana and began the second- round of evidence from Bishop Peter Connors. Testimony of Assistant Commissioner Stephen Fontana Assistant Commissioner Fontana has been with Victoria Police since 1975. His testimony was aimed at providing a description of policies and procedures of Victoria Police based on the documents he had reviewed and his experience of investigations, including investigations of Priests. It was not based on his personal experience of any of the cases discussed in evidence. In relation to the Searson matter, Assistant Commissioner Fontana discussed the various reports from Victoria Police. In relation to previous evidence from survivor Julie Stewart, who testified that she had been interviewed by Constable Ben Condon alone, Assistant Commissioner Fontana said it would be very unusual that this interview would have been conducted by a sole Police officer, particularly one with the rank of probationary constable (as Condon had at the time.) He said that he disagreed with the conclusion in the reports that no offences were disclosed during the investigation, because he considered Searson’s conduct to be indecent. Assistant Commissioner Fontana explained that the Child Exploitation Unit was very small and relatively new division, so possibly lacked the expertise necessary to fully investigate the matter. He also said that the gravity of the crime, the likelihood of successful prosecution and the wishes of the parents were taken into account when dealing with cases involving child witnesses. Assistant Commissioner Fontana recalled that the Senior Constable who investigated the knife incident described Searson as “the coolest and the most polished suspect” he had ever interviewed.

  • The Royal Commission Into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse Began a Public Hearing Into Case Study 35 Today
    The Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse began a public hearing into Case Study 35 today. There was an opening statement by Senior Counsel assisting the Commission, Gail Furness SC, testimony by former priest Philip O’Donnell, and testimony from survivor witness BVD. Opening statement by Gail Furness SC Ms Furness’ opening statement outlined the evidence which is expected to be heard in Case Study 35. The case study will focus on the conduct and management of eight priests of the Archdiocese of Melbourne: Nazareno Fasciale, Kevin O’Donnell, Ronald Pickering, Wilfred Baker, Peter Searson, David Daniel, Desmond Gannon and Barry Robinson. Ms Furness noted that the Royal Commission had conducted a comprehensive data survey of all Catholic Church authorities (ie, dioceses and religious orders) in Australia including the Archdiocese of Melbourne. The key points highlighted by Ms Furness were: In the 35-year period between January 1980 and 28 February 2015, 454 people made a claim or substantiated complaint of child sexual abuse about priests, religious, employees and volunteers operating within the Archdiocese of Melbourne; 335 of these were a complaint about a priest; There were seven priests who were the subject of 10 or more complaints, and these seven accounted for 54% of all claims made; There were 14 civil claims relating to child sexual abuse by a priest, and half of these resulted in monetary compensation at an average of almost $238,000 per claim (or $270,000 when legal and other costs are taken into account); There were 277 claims which went through the Melbourne Response at an average of almost $35,000 per claim (or $46,000 when legal and other costs are taken into account.) Ms Furness then went on to outline a summary of the history of each of the priests whose cases would be the subject of the Commission.
