EXCLUSIVE: GEORGE PELL ON BEING JAILED, THE WITCH HUNT, THE ABC AND VATICAN CORRUPTION
news.com.au/Sky News Australia ^ | 15th April 2020 | Andrew Bolt

George Pell gave me a remarkable and frank interview - his first since serving 405 days in jail for a crime he could not have committed. He talks of friends he made in jail and the witch hunt that put him there. He is scathing of the ABC, and amazed by Victoria Police and Victoria's Court of Appeal.

I am hard of hearing and could not make out most of the audio. Did Pell comment on Vatican collusion against him? “Doctrine” pretenders or “financial” scalawags? What did he say?

Financial from what I can recall. That bit was less interesting to me than the local angles.

This article includes a partial transcript of the section where he was talking about financial corruption in the Church.

Pell is almost too ready to forgive the abominable injustice that was done to him. I’m not sure I can say that as a Christian. I guess now I have to go an examine my own conscience.
