	Priest Sex Abuse Trial Starts Today WCAX September 28, 2009 http://www.wcax.com/Global/story.asp?S=11209068 Jury draw for the next priest sex abuse trial against Burlington's Catholic Diocese begins today. This case involves claims by a former Burlington altar boy that Father Edward Paquette molested him at Christ the King Church. The unnamed victim also alleges the Vermont diocese is to blame because it knew Paquette was a child molester when they hired him. Monsignor John McSweeney, who hired Paquette, will be required to testify. It's unknown whether the judge will allow evidence into the trial that Rev. Paquette molested boys in other states before coming to Vermont.
