The High Court of Australia, in a unanimous verdict of a 7-member bench, has acquitted Cardinal George Pell of the charges of child sexual abuse for which he has been serving time in prison: see Pell v The Queen [2020] HCA 12 (7 April 2020). He was immediately released.
I have written an opinion piece on “The Conviction of Cardinal Pell” for the Gospel Coalition Australia website, for those who are interested in reflections on the case from a Biblical and legal perspective.
