Church court finds Pa. bishop guilty of hiding abuse
By Elizabeth Eisenstadt Evans
PHILADELPHIA -- A church court on Thursday (June 26) unanimously found the Episcopal bishop of Philadelphia, Charles E. Bennison, guilty of not responding appropriately to his brother's sexual abuse of a teenage girl more than three decades ago. Bennison, 64, was convicted by the nine-member tribunal of "conduct unbecoming a member of the clergy." Punishments could range from admonishment to having his ordination rescinded. As a 24-year-old married youth minister at Charles Bennison's parish in the early 1970's, his brother, John Bennison, initiated a sexual relationship with a 14-year-old girl that continued for more than three years. The court also found the bishop guilty of "suppressing" what he knew about his brother until the abuse became public knowledge in 2006. source |
