重要な 証言，証人／目撃する could be in 疑問 in 目印 church retrial
PHILADELPHIA (AP) - An 高齢化 monsignor who was the first U.S. church 公式の／役人 ever tried and sent to 刑務所，拘置所 over his 扱うing of priest-乱用 （民事の）告訴s could soon be retried in the 2011 事例／患者 with one thing 行方不明の - the 犠牲者.
The only accuser whose （民事の）告訴 fell within the 法令 of 制限s is a young man with a history of 麻薬 中毒 who gave a sordid and unusual account of 乱用: he said he was sexually 強襲，強姦d by two priests and his sixth-grade teacher in the late 1990s. His 信用性 has long been questioned, even by a retired police 探偵，刑事 working for Philadelphia 検察官，検事s.
They have not committed to calling the 長，指導者 accuser at the March 16 retrial of Monsignor William Lynn, the longtime 長官 for clergy at the Roman カトリック教徒 Archdiocese of Philadelphia. Lynn was 罪人／有罪を宣告するd in 2012 of 重罪 child endangerment, but the 有罪の判決 has twice been overturned.
ありふれた 嘆願s 裁判官 Gwendolyn 有望な, in a 判決，裁定 Friday, said 検察官，検事s don´t have to tell the 弁護 if they´ll call the accuser, a policeman´s son dubbed "Billy Doe" in 法廷，裁判所 記録，記録的な／記録するs.
That means Lynn, now 69, could be retried in a 事例／患者 without a known sex-乱用 犠牲者. He served 33 months of a three- to six-year 刑務所，拘置所 称する，呼ぶ／期間／用語 before winning a new 裁判，公判 and 存在 解放（する）d on 保釈（金）.
The 弁護 says without the accuser, there is no 事例／患者. But 検察官，検事s say any child put in 害（を与える）s was a 可能性のある 犠牲者.

"How do you 監督する the 福利事業 of a child without knowing who the child is?" 弁護 lawyer Thomas Bergstrom argued at a pretrial 審理，公聴会 this month. "I would like to know today who the 犠牲者 is."
検察官，検事s argue that Lynn put children´s lives at 危険 簡単に by transferring predator priests to new parishes without 警告.
"The 罪，犯罪 is the （危険などに）さらす to danger," Assistant 地区 弁護士／代理人／検事 Patrick Blessington argued in 法廷，裁判所. "The 爆弾 doesn´t have to go off."
The 裁判官, in Friday´s 判決，裁定, did order 検察官，検事s to 召喚状 Doe for the 裁判，公判. Blessington has said that Doe will be on the 証言，証人／目撃する 名簿（に載せる）／表（にあげる）, but wouldn't 約束 he would call him. He said the endangerment 告発（する），告訴（する）／料金 含むs not just Doe, but 無名の other children.
The 問題／発行する of finding a suitable 犠牲者 whose 事例／患者 落ちるs within the 法令 has 複雑にするd the 起訴 of church 乱用 事例／患者s for years.
In 2005, Philadelphia 地区 弁護士／代理人／検事 Lynn Abraham 問題／発行するd a scathing 大陪審 報告（する）／憶測 that 詳細（に述べる）d 主張s against 63 credibly （刑事）被告 priests, before 結論するing that 非，不，無 could be 告発（する），告訴（する）／料金d under the 存在するing 法律s.
As the church-乱用 スキャンダル simmered across the country, her 後継者 tried a new and ambitious tack. Then-地区 弁護士／代理人／検事 Seth Williams, relying on Doe´s account, 逮捕（する）d Lynn in 2011, along with the two priests and teacher that Doe （刑事）被告.
Ex-priest Edward Avery, labeled a "known predator" by Lynn, pleaded 有罪の before 裁判，公判 and 証言するd against Lynn - but 否定するd ever （性的に）いたずらするing Doe. The other priest died in 刑務所，拘置所 in 2014 主張するing on his innocence, and the teacher's 有罪の判決 was overturned based in part on a 2017 覚え書き from the D.A.'s 捜査官／調査官, retired 探偵，刑事 Joseph Walsh.
Walsh, in a 12-page 覚え書き he sent to the 弁護, said he could never 確認する Doe´s account. He said he had pointed out a number of serious inconsistencies to 検察官，検事s before Lynn´s 裁判，公判, only to be told by one he was "殺人，大当り (her) 事例／患者."
The teacher, Bernard Shero, pleaded no contest to 減ずるd 告発（する），告訴（する）／料金s in 2017 and was 解放（する）d on time served.
有望な has 問題／発行するd a gag order in the 事例／患者, and neither Blessington nor Bergstrom returned calls 捜し出すing comment on Friday´s 判決，裁定.
