MINNEAPOLIS — Lawyers investigating a Minnesota archbishop in 2014
found compelling and credible allegations from nearly a dozen people
that he engaged in sexual misconduct and harassment, then retaliated
when his advances were rejected, according to an internal church
document made public this week.
Although Archbishop John Nienstedt eventually stepped down under fire as head of the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis, he remains a priest in good standing and less than two weeks ago led Masses at a conservative Catholic leadership conference in California.
