Christopher Saunders, the 76-year-old former Catholic bishop of Broome, is standing trial in the Western Australian District Court on charges of sexually abusing three young Indigenous men between 2008 and 2017 1. The prosecution alleges that Saunders exploited his position to gain access to vulnerable youth, using church-owned properties to host gatherings where he provided alcohol and cigarettes 1.
During the second week of the three-week trial, a witness testified that he was invited to a barbecue at Saunders' home while in his teenage years, where he was allegedly subjected to inappropriate touching 1. The witness recounted that Saunders asked young people to remove their clothing and supplied them with whisky and cola 1. According to the witness's account, Saunders placed his foot on the witness's genital area for approximately 2.5 minutes 1. The prosecution has characterized these actions as part of a deliberate pattern in which Saunders used church resources to organize alcohol-fueled parties as a means to approach Indigenous boys for sexual abuse 1.
