A Philadelphia judge presiding over the Catholic Archdiocese of Philadelphia priest sex-abuse trial must decide if the reports from five people in 2010 that they were abused sexually by defrocked priest Edward Avery can be admitted into evidence in order to bolster the prosecution’s case.

Evidence regarding Avery, who pled guilty to sexually abusing a 10-year-old boy just before the trial started, started Monday and is slated to continue later this week.
