PHILADELPHIA — A Philadelphia judge is denying a Roman Catholic priest’s bid to have one of two child-endangerment counts dismissed in his clergy-abuse trial.
Meanwhile, Monsignor William Lynn is back on the witness stand for a third day.
Lynn’s lawyers argue the endangerment charge involving the Rev. James Brennan should have been filed by 2001, two years after the victim’s complaint.
Common Pleas Judge M. Teresa Sarmina has rejected the motion, and Lynn is enduring more heated cross-examination.
