william lynn next year. with monsignor william lynn out on bail, williams is already planning the prosecution against him. while some evidence detailing the history of priest abuse and cover-up in the archdiocese may very well not be allowed in court this time around. williams believes his team will have enough to convince a jury to convict lynn again. >> when allegations were made, of sexual abuse against priests in our archdiocese, how they would handle that, how they would not tell the police, how they would tell the parishioners that the priest is being moved for health reasons. >> reporter: d.a. williams did not waiver in his decision to retry the case, in large part he said because of the abuse survivors. an attorney in philadelphia for some of those survivors explains another conviction for lynn would be significant. but it shouldn't stop there. >> the only way to move the ball forward is with the archdiocese
