Bishop Richard Malone of Buffalo, NY has resigned following criticism of his "mishandling" of sexual abuse by priests in his diocese. According to a whistleblower, he withheld numerous names from a publicly released list of priests who have been accused of sexual abuse. The diocese is currently facing literally hundreds of lawsuits from alleged victims.

Good riddance.
