A Massachusetts Statehouse panel is weighing whether to approve Gov. Charlie Baker’s recommended pardons of two individuals at the center of one the nation's most high-profile sexual abuse trials of the 1980s.
The two did not appear at Tuesday’s public hearing held by the Governor's Council, which must approve the pardon requests.
The young children talked about being led into a “secret room,” tied to trees naked and that Gerald Amirault abused them while dressed as a clown, Sultan said. LeFave received an eight- to 20-year sentence, but was released in 1995, having served 8 1/2 years. Violet Amirault was also released in 1995. She died of cancer two years later.
Hardoon said the arguments being made in defense of the Amiraults now were the same that were made at trial in the 1980s.
