'George Pell's legacy is disgusting' As survivors recall abuse at the hands
of paedophile Gerald Ridsdale, they say it's "inconceivable" Cardinal
Pell was unaware of his crimes in Ballarat. Gabrielle Short can conjure no fond memories of this place, the old
orphanage once known as the Nazareth House Girls' Home, once her home.
Sitting
opposite Lake Wendouree, the structure is grandiose and beautiful but
it seemed swallowed by a sickness in 1963, when Short was just seven. She
points to herself in a photo from that time, on the day of her first
communion – that special Catholic sacrament after confession and before
confirmation.http://www.theage.com.au/victoria/survivor-warning-signs-about-paedophile-priest-gerald-ridsdale-were-ignored-20150521-gh6teo.html
