Burlington man is seeking to overturn child sex-assault conviction

While the state Supreme Judicial Court is set to hear the Herbert Dorazio case on Tuesday, justices are seeking amicus briefs -- arguments from outside parties who have strong interest in the subject but are not involved in the case -- for opinions on where to draw the line between showing a pattern of bad behavior and allegations that will prejudice the jury against a defendant.
