Jury selection is scheduled to begin this morning for the sexual abuse trial involving a local catholic priest. Father Dennis Sewar is charged with sexual abuse involving a 14-year-old boy in 1999. Authorities say it happened when Sewar was at the Church of Annunciation in Rochester. This past February a judge threw out the "forcible touching charge" against Sewar.
