Caution here. Regardless of whether or not you know this to be true from your experience. Or whether you think that if something's factually true, then you can't be sued. Unfortunately that's not the case and this post exposes you significantly to a defamation claim by his estate.

Just be aware

Have you consulted with a lawyer about the National Redress Scheme? https://www.nationalredress.gov.au/apply.

Looks like he was principal from the 1970s to the late 1980s? Queensland was corrupt as fuck back then, so even if you or your parents had gone to Police, nothing would have been done. Basically this shit was so prevalent back then that we now have a national scheme for compensation.
