Fourth former youth center detention worker goes on trial in New Hampshire
The trial for former youth counselor Stephen Murphy begins, facing 16 charges related to sexual assault of four boys at the Youth Development Center in the late 1990s.
Murphy is accused of raping a boy in a stairwell while coworkers restrained him, with Michael Gilpatrick testifying against him.
Eleven men have been arrested in connection with the investigation, with Murphy being the fourth to go to trial.
The Youth Development Center is set to close, and lawmakers are replacing it with a smaller facility due to the abuse allegations.
