A disgraced former Catholic priest will learn next week if
he is to serve any more time in custody after he admitted sexually a
young altar boy at his family cottage in Co Down over 20 years ago.
Reserving his decision today (Thursday) at Downpatrick Crown Court,
Judge Piers Grant told Daniel Curran that he will pass sentence on
Monday, March 23. Curran (64), of Bryansford Avenue, Newcastle, pleaded guilty to one
count of gross indecency towards a male child and also admitted a single
charge of indecent assault on the same victim
