EXCLUSIVE Cardinal George Pell says charges laid by Victorian Police were ‘extraordinary’

about 4 years in news

Cardinal George Pell has revealed he “wouldn’t be entirely surprised” if Victorian Police continued searching for attempts to prosecute him in the future.

In an exclusive world-first television interview with Sky News Australia presenter Andrew Bolt, Cardinal Pell talks candidly about the numerous charges laid against him, all of which have been dropped or dismissed.

Last week, Cardinal Pell’s conviction was overturned by Australia’s highest court in a unanimous decision, after having spent 405 days in jail following an initial ruling which had found him guilty in 2018.

Cardinal Pell said he “didn’t know how you explain it,” but the 26 charges laid against him by Victorian Police “were certainly extraordinary”.

George Pell will speak exclusively to Andrew Bolt in his first TV interview since being released from prison on Tuesday night at 7pm on The Bolt Report, only on Sky News Australia.
