EVIL priest Gerald Ridsdale is “arrogant”, spends his jail time hiding inside his small unit and has multiple Catholic Church priests on his list of contacts.

The serial paedophile, who the Catholic Church allegedly protected during his horrific 30-year sex offending spree, hardly ever leaves his residence inside the Ararat jail.

“He rarely ventures out into the main area,” said a prison source.

“He keeps to himself, presumably because he’s worried about getting bashed.”

Ridsdale, who abused more than 50 children while he was a Catholic priest, has become the face of the Catholic Church abuse scandal.

The 81-year-old was evasive under questioning this week at the Royal Commission into institutional child sex abuse.
