This Broken Rites article is the most comprehensive account avalable about the background of Christian Brother Ted Dowlan.
Despite Dowlan being jailed in 1996, the Christian Brothers did not
expel him. Instead, they said that they would be prepared
to continue looking after Dowlan in the future.
Dowlan later changed his surname to Bales and, helped by the Christian Brothers organisation, he moved into a private house of his own. In October 2014, after more of his earlier victims finally contacted the police, "Ted Bales" pleaded guilty to some more of his crimes and was remanded in custody to await a new sentencing.
