78-year-old charged with 55 historical child sex offences at Adelaide youth detention centre

South Australian police charged a 78-year-old man with 55 offences, including rape and sexual abuse, allegedly committed against 29 children at the now-closed Magill training centre between 1978 and 2003. The charges follow a historical investigation into institutional abuse, marking a significant legal action decades after the alleged crimes. The case highlights ongoing accountability efforts for past abuses in state-run facilities.
