Nun laughed after priest's abuse: Survivor Gorden Hill

A nun laughed after a five-year-old orphan was abused by a priest at a Victorian Catholic home, the sex abuse royal commission has heard. Gordon Hill, 72, told the commission he was sexually and physically abused at St Joseph's Home in Ballarat, in what he called horror rooms and dungeons.
Mr Hill - whose name at "St Joey's" was 29 because that was his locker number - said he was five when he was first abused by a priest. A nun told him: "Father wants to cleanse you, 29."
