The Brisbane Catholic authorities had known for 25 years that Father
Leo Wright was committing sex crimes against children but they retained
him in the ministry and he continued to offend, Brisbane District Court
was told in September 1997.
Wright, 59, who was already in jail for child-abuse, was charged with one count of rape, four counts of indecent assault and four of indecent dealings involving an Aboriginal girl ("Sally"), from 1970 to 1976, when she was aged from 12 to 18. The offences began at an Aboriginal community, where Wright was ministering. Some of the offences occurred immediately after Wright conducted Mass. After Sally turned 18, Wright continued a sexual relationship with her but this did not involve criminal charges.
