YouTube has gone very coy on matters Pell. Live moving images of a procession after a Mass in a Cathedral where Pell officiated seem not accessible. How do you pull these robes "aside?"

It appears that there's nothing to pull apart, or aside - there's no opening. Could the accuser be mistaken?

How do you pull these robes "aside?"

How does he take a piss?
There must be some way to move his robes aside.

We haven't been given all the facts yet, but his conviction may well be quashed on appeal.

The circumstances of the claim seem rather bizarre - Pell pulls out his dick in a break during mass and orders two boys to suck it - as punishment for being in the priest's chambers.

It's not inconceivable, but it would be good to know what facts they based it on.

The surviving 'boy's' evidence is being suppressed (stuffed if I know why) but you can glean what he would have said from the allegations put to Pell by the Cops in his Record of Interview. See here:

That's useful, Aussie. As I understand it, the investigators found that Pell was not out the front of the cathedral on the date this occurred. Painstaking interviews and recollections by witnesses going back years.

Still, all this proves, as far as I can see, that Pell had an opportunity. It still comes down to the testimony of one person. No witnesses, no DNA, just a statement.

I imagine Pell's barrister must have been the best, so how could one person's word persuade a jury to unanimously find Pell guilty?
