From Canada-
Trials for an Anglican priest accused of sexual offences against several teen boys will not go ahead in the new year.
Gordon
William Dominey, 67, faces a slew of charges related to alleged abuses
against boys aged 14 to 16 who were inmates at an Edmonton youth jail in
the 1980s.
But on Tuesday his lawyer brought an adjournment application, citing his client's poor health.
"Mr.
Dominey will not be in a position to travel in 2020," defence lawyer
Kent Teskey told Court of Queen's Bench Justice Paul Belzil during a
brief hearing.
Dominey, who lives in British Columbia, was not in attendance. In 2018, court heard he was undergoing treatment for cancer.
