A former social worker and Catholic
priest who abused 13 children over more than two decades, including at
Shirley Oaks children's home, today had his "too soft" jail term
increased by a third.
Philip Temple molested 12 boys and one girl over 25 years, starting in the 1970s, while working in south London care homes and at a north London church.
He also lied on oath at a trial in the 1990s, when he was cleared of sex offences against a teenage boy - forcing his victim to go through the trauma of giving evidence against him twice.
