LEIGH SALES, PRESENTER: For 30 years, the Catholic Church successfully hid the crimes of the man known only as 'Father F' and his identity was protected by court suppression orders. He was eventually unmasked as John Farrell and today he was sentenced to a minimum of 18 years for 62 child sex offences. 7.30 can reveal the paedophile priest has offered to give evidence against the Church leaders who shifted him from parish to parish after multiple allegations of child sexual abuse. Andy Park reports.
