Magee under pressure to face fallout
Dr Magee has not been seen at his Mitchelstown home for the past month and is believed to be in the US, although there was speculation that he may be in Rome.
Yesterday, other Church figures said they would have preferred it if he had been present to deal in person with the publication of the Cloyne report on Wednesday, which castigated his mistakes in failing a number of alleged victims of clerical child abuse in the diocese.
