EDITOR'S NOTE: The High Court overturned Cardinal George Pell's conviction for historical child sex offences in a judgment handed down April 7, 2020. In a unanimous decision all seven High Court judges found Victoria's Court of Appeal should not have upheld Pell's conviction It found the evidence could not support a guilty verdict.

Justice Mark Weinberg has not said much during the two days of George Pell's appeal but what he has said may send a chill down the spine of the former Vatican treasurer's prosecutors.
