Victims throw coins as cruelty nun walks free

A NUN convicted of cruelty to young girls in her care at a Roman Catholic children's home was admonished for her crimes yesterday but given no custodial sentence.

Sister Alphonso, 57, was spat on as she left Aberdeen Sheriff Court to shouts of "Rot in Hell" and a hail of coins from her victims. Sheriff Colin Harris said she would have been jailed if it had not been for her poor health, length of time since the offences were committed, the fact that she was a first time offender and a reduction in charges throughout the case.
