No Verdict Yet in Trial of Priest Accused of Abuse By Jessica Harding Schenectady Gazette February 17, 2009 http://www.dailygazette.com/news/2009/feb/17/0217_priest/ FONDA — Jurors in the case against Catholic priest John W. Broderick, who was accused of sexual misconduct involving three boys, failed to reach a verdict Tuesday but will resume deliberations today. Jurors began their deliberations during lunch after hearing closing arguments from the prosecution and defense attorneys. As of 4 p.m. jurors asked to hear a read-back of testimony from the three children alleged to be victims in the case and from Connie Veeder, a Montgomery County Department of Social Services caseworker. Broderick is accused of molesting three children from a large family while he was staying with the family and acting as the mother’s spiritual advisor. |
