In a statement, the Diocese of Chichester said both victims had showed "great courage in coming forward".

Expressing its "deep sense of sorrow", it added: "All cases of sexual abuse are a great betrayal.

"Where it has happened, it must be brought into the light so that justice can be done."
Regrets but what are they doing to help the ladies? Same problem as we seem to be seeing more locally

At last the fear of speaking out is over in ALL types cases of sexual abuse, thank God !
Education authorities and the Church really need to start getting their act together.

Interesting to see that Hove Crown Court is open, as there is some doubt as to whether Webb's case will proceed on schedule at Lewes.
