A Catholic priest who admitted accessing child pornography was
allowed to rise to a senior position in his order and remained in the
post until recently. The National Board for Safeguarding Children
in the Catholic Church last year sought an urgent review of the case,
warning that the man posed a risk.
“His proximity to children, unrestricted/ unmonitored use of electronic equipment, and his perceived position of authority and responsibility, may increase that risk,” it said. The Discalced Carmelite friar admitted “substantial” access to child pornography on “multiple occasions”. He was reported to gardaí but not convicted.
