	New Victim Comes Forward - Motion for New Trial in Fresno Filed May 11th By Kay Ebeling City of Angels May 21, 2009 http://cityofangels5.blogspot.com/2009/05/new-victim-comes-forward-motion-for-new.html Declaration by a new witness spurred attorneys to file a motion for a new trial in Fresno Superior Court May 11, 2009, on behalf of plaintiffs George and Howard Santillan. The 2000 or so page document arrived here at City of Angels HQ in Hollywood just moments ago and we will have full details and many documents scanned in for readers to click and enlarge when we are up full speed again next week. A victim of Anthony Herdegen says he reported the sexual abuse to the Fresno Diocese in 1967. In the March 2009 trial that ended with the jury awarding $0 to plaintiffs, the verdict was based on "whether the diocese knew or should have known of any sexual abuse by Herdegen before 1973." "The discovery that the Diocese was in fact on notice of Herdegen's sexual misconduct by at least 1967 requires a new trial," reads a main heading of the brief. Testimony of this new victim would have resulted in a different verdict, reads the brief - on the first page. Like I said there are about two thousand pages here, so City of Angels Lady is content with her Memorial Day Weekend plans. Scanning and scanning and WOW. I can't wait. If you come to this site over the weekend, you can watch the post as it is being constructed, as we scan one piece of evidence after another up for people to view, from this public document. Much like we did last year with the Servants of the Paracletes Documents here And also here and other posts around late June 2008 here at City of angels. Read here next week a full report on the Herdegen cases in Fresno. Motion for new trial was filed by the law offices of Ray Boucher in LA, Laurence Drivon in Stockton, and Jeff Anderson in St. Paul, Minnesota.
