Father Oliver Brennan, the former parish priest in Dundalk County Louth who was falsely accused of child abuse, said support from family and friends kept him sane during the two-year ordeal.
Speaking on the Marian Finucane programme on RTE Radio One last Saturday, he said,
“It was the worst thing in the world, to be accused of the worst crime of all.”
According to the Dundalk Democrat, Fr Brennan said that on August 14, 2010, the bishop, who was with a child safe-guarding officer, read out to him the accusation.
