CHILD SEX RAP PRIEST WALKS FREE

Wishaw, Lanarkshire, Scotland -

A PRIEST walked free from court yesterday after sex abuse charges against him were thrown out.

Father James Duddy, 54, had been accused of lewd and libidinous behaviour towards two 10-year-old girls.

He was due to face his accusers at Hamilton Sheriff Court but the case was ditched after one of his accusers failed to appear.

Sheriff Shona Waldron ignored crown pleas for the case to be adjourned temporarily and told Duddy he was free to go.

Peter Kearney, spokesman for the Catholic Church in Scotland, said: 'Father Duddy remains on administrative leave. His situation will now be reviewed.'

He was the priest at sacred heart parish when I attended sacred heart primary. He made my skin crawl. I told my parents one day about confession I attended, making me sit on his knee while he rubbed his head in my hair and cuddled me and rocked back and forth. I was out the door like a shot. He refused to let me make my confirmation after that then was suddenly moved to another position in Germany. Disgusting peadophile!! I couldn't believe how he was allowed to walk round the school whenever he pleaded and sit next to all the little girls at lunch time.
