The most senior Catholic official in the world to be convicted of concealing child sex abuse is likely to be spared time in prison.
Adelaide’s Archbishop Philip Wilson was found guilty in May of failing to report to police the abuse of two altar boys by a paedophile priest in the 1970s.
 
The magistrate Robert Stone in Newcastle local court on Tuesday sentenced the 67-year-old to 12 months’ imprisonment with a non-parole period of six months. He ordered that Wilson be assessed for home detention.....

Fletcher was found guilty in 2004 of nine counts of child sexual abuse and died in jail of a stroke in 2016.....
