A Newcastle court has heard hundreds of pages of
evidence are being considered by the Crown, as part of efforts to
establish a pattern of behaviour by a Catholic brother extradited from
New Zealand to face child sex charges.
Bernard Kevin McGrath, 68, is facing 252 child sex charges, relating to 35 victims, dating back to the 1970s. The alleged offences happened in the Lake Macquarie region, near Newcastle. Sporting
a thinning grey goatee beard, McGrath showed little emotion as he
appeared by audio visual link in Newcastle Local Court today.http://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-08-26/crown-tries-to-establish-pattern-of-behaviour-in-case-against-c/6725810
