The following are from the sentencing remarks from the county court: from his Honor Judge Mullay
MBB's remarks I dont think are out of order if you read this as written, its probably about the context of how well Father Bob
did really know Corfe and his history. Did Corfe tell Father Bob in the confession box for example what he did...who knows....?
Corfe got the suspended sentence due to a technicality in the law which allowed for suspended sentences for these crimes pre 2011 but the law was changed after that year, Corfe committed his atrocity in 2005 making him eligible for a suspended sentence and because he pleaded guilty.
40 As well as your work with the Anchorage for many years, you also became great
supporter of other charitable foundations. You became involved with the renowned
and successful Reclink football league, helping the homeless and vulnerable. A great
supporter of the down trodden, Father Bob Maguire knew you well and continues to
support you. He wrote to the court:
I, Father Bob Maguire, have known Joffa for approximately twenty years.
Joffa was of great support to my foundation in caring for the needs of the less fortunate
in the City of Port Phillip. One such area of support was with Reclink Football matches.
I am also aware of Joffa's community compassion and so offer my unconditional support
of Joffa.
