Victoria police are planning a major security operation for
the appearance of George Pell at the child sexual abuse royal commission
in response to concerns about protecting him from angry victims.
Cardinal Pell, the Vatican’s third most senior official, has retained one of Australia’s most expensive barristers, Allan Myers QC, for what could be a make-or-break appearance in Melbourne on December 14. The Catholic Church will pick up Mr Myers’s bill, which could be up to $20,000 a day.
