A Melbourne Catholic priest has resigned after allegations he sexually abused a trainee priest 30 years ago.
The ABC revealed that in 2012, the Catholic Church paid $75,000 in compensation to an 18-year-old former student priest, who alleged he was abused by Father John Walshe in 1982. Father Walshe strenuously denied the abuse and said the relationship was consensual.http://thenewdaily.com.au/news/state/vic/2016/11/26/melbourne-priest-resigns-sex-abuse-allegations/
