Bishop-elect Michel Mulloy 
In an almost unprecedented move, Pope Francis has accepted the resignation of Bishop-elect Michel Mulloy, who was appointed to lead the Diocese of Duluth, Minnesota less than three months ago. It comes after an allegation that he abused a minor in the 1980s was brought forward in early August.
His current diocese said that it “has no other allegations of sexual abuse involving Fr Mulloy”.
The Rapid City Diocese said that it is “following procedure” as it informed law enforcement about the allegation.
Fr Mulloy received a summary of the abuse allegation against him, before he offered his resignation as the bishop-elect of Duluth.
