A Catholic priest has been found guilty of sexually abusing a teenage boy on church property in Perth 30 years ago.
Glenn Humphreys was accused of abusing the teenager between 1983 and 1986 while he was assistant priest at a church in Perth’s south.
After six hours of deliberation, a District Court jury last night convicted Humphreys of four counts of unlawful and indecent assault.
He was acquitted of carnal knowledge against the order of nature.
The court was told Humphreys had assaulted the boy in the church’s presbytery and in a bathroom at a nearby primary school.
