I'm absolutely floored by the decision to aquit George Pell and release him from prison! I'm speechless. How could this be???! It's not right!

So angry....

I'm having physical symptoms - nausea, heart beating weird.

What were they thinking!

all i know, and this disgusts me to my core, is that these people defend each other.  i won't say what i think should be done with or to them.  your reaction is totally on point, 3r, and i share it.  they know exactly what they're thinking, and it has nothing to do with right and wrong.  those terms don't exist in their vocabularies nor their lives.

just sayin' . . .

I agree - it seems to me this was less about justice and more about "friends-in-high-places". But, I don't know the details. Maybe there was something in Australian law that the prosecution neglected.

I feel better about it today but my heart really goes out to everyone affected emotionally by this decision.
