Dublin priest found not guilty of two counts of sex abuse as trial continues

The former Dublin priest accused of sexually abusing a boy 30 years ago has been found not guilty by direction of the trial judge of one count each of sexual assault and buggery in the Phoenix Park.

A former parishioner revealed in evidence that the accused baptised his son on February 10, 1980, the day the complainant alleged he was sexually abused in the Phoenix Park.
