LAWYERS for Susan Sharkey, who runs the counselling, co-ordination
and support office for the Catholic Church in Melbourne, have sent
threatening letters to two witnesses to the state inquiry into how the
churches handled child sex abuse.
The letters warn victims' advocates Helen Last and Judy Courtin that if there is ''any publication'' by them to a journalist or anyone that defames Ms Sharkey ''our client will not hesitate to take legal action against you without further notice''.
