DAVE Sharp was raped and sexually assaulted by a Christian brother – he wants to see compensation and more support for the victims.
AN ABUSE survivor is protesting outside one of Scotland’s largest cathedrals chained to a cross.
Dave Sharp was raped and sexually assaulted by a Christian brother at St Ninian’s residential school, in Fife.
A former headteacher and ex-teacher from the school were convicted at Glasgow’s High Court last month of abusing and sexually assaulting six boys there in the 1970s and 1980s.
Dave spent six years at the school and would have given evidence at the 3-month trial but the man who brutalised him – former head teacher Brother Gerry Ryan – is dead.
