The 81-year-old pedophile Gerald Risdale has said he never should have been a priest. The
elderly man says he's sorry "so many others" could have been saved had
Catholic Church figures who knew he was abusing children gone to police.
Two Ballarat bishops knew of Ridsdale's crimes, one as early as 1961, and two Sydney archbishops knew he had "sexual problems" and should be kept away from children, an inquiry has heard.
