A former Eucharistic minister has been jailed for a campaign of historical sexual abuse of a friend’s child, which a judge described as “disgraceful, despicable activity”.

Bernard McNamee denied three counts of indecently assaulting a boy on dates between August 1991 and January 1993, but was convicted at trial.
