Priest jailed for indecent assault
A Roman Catholic priest convicted of indecently assaulting a 13-year-old girl has been jailed for 21 months.
Father John Lloyd, 57, a parish priest for 32 years, indecently assaulted the girl minutes after baptising her.
Passing sentence at Cardiff Crown Court, the judge Mr Justice Rougier said: "There can be few grosser breaches of trust than when a priest sexually abuses a young child while exercising his pastoral function.
"And I find the description of what you did to that girl almost unbelievable."
