The damage caused by pedophile priests has been been a dark chapter in Newcastle's history. In this profile interview, Isabella O'Brien talks to investigative journalist Suzie Smith about her book, The Altar Boys. Suzie Smith was on holidays in January 2018 when the news came through. Her long-time friend and mentor from the ABC, Steven Alward, had died. Alward had contacted Smith in November 2017 and asked her to investigate ‘something to do with the Maitland-Newcastle diocese’, and the two of them made plans to meet in January to discuss it further. Steven then suicided on the 17th of January, only a few months after he had asked Suzie to investigate something that was close to his heart. His suicide was completely unexpected. Shrouded in mystery, his death raised many questions for those he left behind. Steven was raised in the Maitland-Newcastle...

New Norcia creeps up, almost appearing out of nowhere. A simple left turn and grand Spanish architecture replaces the dusty fields and yellow flowers. The style belongs to the Benedictine monks who reside there on the banks of the Moore River. “It’s kind of a town, or a village, but it’s not really a regular town if you know what I mean, we’ve got a service station and the roadhouse and the gift shop, the museum and the old colleges,” Father Robert Nixon, a Benedictine monk of eight years explains. St Benedictine monks follow a rigorous order, prayer and silence broken by work and recreation. Their Italian robes suit the architecture rather than the place, where stubby shorts and singlets...
