AM's case has been kicked across town to Minshull St - May 2014 is the start date.
Many boys have come forward now, this is going to be a long trial.
A WPC friend of mine indicates its now north of 50 cases.
I was taught by AM, thankfully he was but only a sadistic brute to me, clearly I wasnt attractive enough for him. Thankfully..Others were not so lucky (allegedly).
There are a couple of things we need to know... 1) Who at Ambrose at the time rumbled his activities (alleged) and did NOTHING about them and "suggested" he leave the school and become a deacon in charge of choir boys at Holy Angels (I know lets give the zippo to the pyromaniac [censored]). I suspect that person will be having a few sleepless nights just in case it comes out in open court. 2) Who is paying for his defence ? As an ex teacher his pension will be peanuts. A deacons salary is buttons, I doubt if Trafford will put their hand in the pocket, if its the Parish or the Diocese I will go nuts in the press over this and make a huge stink. I notice Pannone are involved with the victims, we can expect some expensive law suits to hit the governors of SAC or the diocese, the parish or those alcoholic retards the christian brothers...
This case has got real legs.
