Attorney Jeff Anderson is calling on Gov. Mark Dayton to force criminal grand jury investigations into priest abuse cases across the state.

A grand jury investigation in Pennsylvania last week revealed more than 300 priests who abused children.

Now, Anderson wants Dayton to use a little known state statute to force similar grand jury investigations here.

Surrounded by eight survivors of clergy sexual abuse, Anderson said the time has come for criminal investigations.
