The former Catholic bishop of West Virginia spent church money on 'luxury items' & faces 'credible' accusations that he sexually harassed adults under his authority, according to a report issued under a new Catholic policy to address misconduct by bishops
The former Catholic bishop of West Virginia spent church money on"luxury items" -- including liquor, travel and home renovations -- and faces"credible" accusations that he sexually harassed adults under his authority, according to a report issued under a new Catholic policy to address misconduct by bishops.
The investigation into Bishop Michael Bransfield, formerly the head of the Diocese of Wheeling-Charleston, was led by Archbishop William Lori of Baltimore. It is the first in the United States to use the so-called"metropolitan model" since the church's sexual abuse crisis escalated last summer. Under that model, when an accusation arises against a bishop the complaint is handled by the local archbishop, or metropolitan.
