For information.
2 ex-staff were later convicted of sexual assaults against minors.
Neither were priests.
One was for offences against pupils of St Augustine's while a teacher there.
: I'm just glad to say that I never suffered from anything like this at St Augs in my time there but I am aware that others said that they were abused - albeit not as badly as described in this article. Maybe I was only told the less traumatic bits.
: All credit to Mike H for coming forward and telling of his awful experience; others who suffered similarly will see that they were not alone. The hypocrisy of the supposed Men of God guilty of these awful deeds is almost beyond belief - it is never too late to name and shame.
