A
MAGISTRATE has refused to suppress the name of a former Catholic priest
who has been charged over historic child sex offences allegedly
committed in parts of northern NSW.
John Joseph Farrell, 62, was charged on Wednesday by specialist detectives from a strike force set up to investigate alleged assaults upon young children in northern NSW several decades ago. Farrell appeared in the dock of Wagga Wagga Local Court yesterday afternoon after he was refused bail by local police, charged with 26 separate offences.
