A bombshell has been dropped
during testimony at the High Court in Christchurch by one of the complainants
who says a former religious brother abused him. Bernard McGrath is on
trial facing 53 child abuse charges. The fourth complainant
to give evidence clearly recalled incidents of sexual abuse while he was at
Maryland's school between 1974 and 1989. He identified McGrath
in a number of photographs as his alleged abuser. However at the end of
his testimony he was asked to identify McGrath in court but was unable to do
so. |
