Head of Episcopal diocese tries to clarify comments on bishop's drinking

From The Baltimore Sun-

The head of the Episcopal Diocese of Maryland sought Thursday to clarify what he knew about Bishop Heather Elizabeth Cook's drinking, and when he knew it.

Cook, who became the No. 2 leader in the diocese last September despite an arrest for driving under the influence of alcohol in 2010, is accused in the December death of local cyclist Thomas Palermo.

She was indicted this week on charges including automobile manslaughter, driving under the influence and texting while driving during an accident resulting in death or serious bodily injury.

Bishop Eugene Sutton has broken his vow of silence: Spin doctors Meredith Gould and Dan Webster have just come up with another doozy of a winner for Bishop Eugene Sutton: http://www.livingchurch.org/title-iv-and-disclosur...
Really folks, having someone say I lied but I didn't lie; I follow Canon law but I break it when it suits my purposes; this does not help the Church in the public's eye.
And it is really just purely trashing the press and ignoring what his congregation has been calling for. The honesty and transparency the members of the Church and the public have begged for are just nowhere to be found.
