• Former Woodside attorney gets 60 years to life for molesting 3 boys (sfchronicle.com) — A former Woodside attorney has been sentenced in San Mateo County Superior Court to 60 years to life in prison for molesting three boys, and must register as a sex offender for life. Prosecutors say the now‑84‑year‑old was convicted after a lengthy trial that detailed years of abuse and thousands of child abuse images found in his home. Woodside residents may see this case as a major local legal reckoning.
