PHILADELPHIA — A landmark church sex abuse trial is set to resume in Philadelphia.
Last week’s testimony featured two days of confrontational exchanges between a defense attorney and the lone alleged victim of one of the defendants, the Rev. James Brennan.
Lynn says his efforts to investigate reports of abuse were thwarted by officials above him.
Brennan is on trial with Monsignor William Lynn, the first Roman Catholic official in the U.S. charged with child endangerment for allegedly transferring predator priests into unwitting parishes.
