Church Trial of Rev Schaefer Under Way in S A

The Rev Wil Schaefer, ousted over his refusal to end a relationship with 27 year old San Antonio divorcee Jady Nasi, faced a church trial in San Antonio with Bishop W Kenneth Pope presiding. No defense counsel appeared as administrator Jerry Smart said time for preparation was lacking. Pope issued a statement outlining his view of the case, noting Schaefer left the pulpit of the First Methodist Church in Laredo after refusing the relationship.
