Sex abuse victim fears for his son

A MAN sexually abused by a Brother of Charity broke down yesterday when he said he feared for the safety of his son after a judge ruled the Brother was to be released.

Alan Carroll (51), who was repeatedly abused by James Kelly - whose religious name is Brother Ambrose - said he was furious his attacker would be released from jail on November 23 to an undisclosed institution.

“This institution should have been named publicly so I know where he is. I have a son, David, who is 10 years old and a daughter Rachel. That fella (Br Ambrose) could be living just two miles from my home. I want to protect my children as much as I can. I don’t want to see them go through what I did,” Mr Carroll, who now lives in Tallaght, Co Dublin, said. Mr Carroll said he didn’t have any sympathy for Br Ambrose’s age or infirmity. He is now 77-years-old.
