'The guilt is all mine. I take full responsibility': Sex-assault priest due to be sentenced
A former priest who was convicted of the attempted rape of a young girl more than 30 years ago will be sentenced later.
Seventy-three-year-old John Calnan of The Presbytery, 35 Paul Street, Cork, also pleaded guilty to the sexual assault of the girl's brother in west Cork.
His female victim told the court she was still afraid of him.
In the letter, the former priest apologised for the hurt he had caused writing: “The guilt is all mine. I take full responsibility.”
John Calnan will be sentenced today.
