Tue 04 Apr 2003Former Christian Brother to go on trial for abuse
A former Christian Brother who faces 60 charges involving the alleged sexual abuse of 10 boys at Letterfrack reformatory in Connemara during the 1960s objected to being sent forward for trial yesterday, claiming he is prejudiced by the long delay in bringing the matter before the court.
The 62-year-old accused, who lives in Co Louth, is facing 36 charges of indecent assault and 24 charges of buggery against 10 boys between 1965 and 1967.
