Sadistic nuns at a notorious Australian orphanage in Queensland dished
out abuse in a toxic environment that festered due in part to
inadequate government scrutiny, supervision and training, a royal
commission has found.
The child sex abuse royal commission last year examined cruel treatment of 13 former residents of St Joseph's Orphanage, which was operated by the Sisters of Mercy between 1940 and 1975.
The men and women – now aged from their 50s to 80s – recalled abuse at Neerkol, ranging from public floggings and being walked on in high heels to being made to drape urine-soaked sheets over their heads.
