Santa Clara County prosecutors Friday officially announced their decision not to re-file misdemeanor charges against William Lynch for beating Fr. Jerold Lindner, who Lynch claims molested him more than three decades ago.
Deputy District Attorney Vikki Gemetti on Friday morning formally told Judge David Cena of her office’s decision.
Cena responded by saying that the charges were dismissed and Lynch’s bail released.
“It does put an exclamation point on the case,” said Lynch’s attorney Pat Harris.
