It would have been legally more satisfactory to prosecute Pell for covering for errant priests. I'm not sure the law actually proscribes that. Instead Pell took the hit for those priests based on unsupported 22 year old testimony. According to our ABC it was all very emotional therefore the accused must be guilty.
