Kelvin Johnston waited 40 years for his day of reckoning. It came in November this year when the school teacher who molested him while on a school camp, Wilfred Mentink, was thrown in jail. Mr Johnston, who was just 14 when he was sexually abused, said the vile acts he had to endure still haunt him to this day.
His heart goes out to the thousands of child abuse victims hoping for justice today as the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse hands down its final report. "We want action. Really people have to take the attitude [that] it all starts now," he said.
