In a statement confirming that Pope Benedict XVI has accepted his resignation, Bishop James Moriarty of Kildare and Leighlin repeated his acknowledgment that he bore some responsibility for the mishandling of sexual abuse in the Dublin archdiocese.
Although he was not directly criticized for his actions as in Dublin in the Murphy report, he said, "from the time I became an auxiliary bishop, I should have challenged the prevailing culture." He apologized to abuse victims in his statement.
