Prof. Carpenter Quoted in Star Tribune on Constitutional Rights for Convicted Priest in Sex Case

Professor Dale Carpenter was quoted in a Star Tribune article entitled "Convicted Priest Gets New Trial in Sex Case." The article stated that the State Court of Appeals said a priest was improperly convicted on the basis of church doctrine. Carpenter was quoted saying, "This is a narrow decision, but it could actually put prosecutors in difficult positions in future prosecutions because it's obviously relevant that this is a clergy situation, but you can't talk too much about it."
