Twenty years after Alan Rowe
first approached the Catholic Church seeking an apology for alleged
sexual abuse by a priest in Bunbury, he is set to file writs against the
Catholic Diocese of Bunbury in the New South Wales Supreme Court.
Mr Rowe was an altar boy at St Patrick's Cathedral in the late 1960s and early 1970s. He claims Father Kevin Johnston, one of the parish priests, abused him on about 12 separate occasions.
