A PRIEST named as one of the country’s worst sex monsters has been found dead in his jail cell.
Sick paedophile Bill Carney has escaped justice ahead of his trial after his sudden death yesterday morning at the Midlands jail.
Known to have had heart trouble, the 73-year-old was rushed to hospital after his cellmate alerted prison staff.
However, he was declared dead on arrival at the nearby Midlands Regional Hospital in Portlaoise.
The former cleric was regarded as one of the most prolific paedophiles and was named in the 2009 Murphy Report.
