New York Cardinal Timothy Dolan, former archbishop of Milwaukee, was deposed Wednesday about clergy sex abuse in the Milwaukee Catholic Archdiocese's bankruptcy case, church officials and lawyers said.continue at JS
The deposition, taken in New York and first reported by The New York Times, comes as Dolan prepares to leave next week for the Vatican, where a conclave of cardinals is to choose a pope to replace Pope Benedict XVI. The pope announced last week that he was stepping down, the first sitting pope to do so in more than 600 years.
Dolan, the most influential Catholic bishop in the United States, has been mentioned as a long shot to succeed Benedict, though many feel an American is unlikely to be picked.
Perfect timing. Clearly this was planned to maximize publicity. I believe Weakland and Sklba's depositions were never made public, correct?
