From Bishop Lee Piche, Auxiliary Bishop of the Archdiocese of Saint Paul and Minneapolis

Several months ago, the Archdiocese of Saint Paul and Minneapolis received claims regarding alleged misbehavior involving Archbishop John Nienstedt. The claims did not involve anything criminal or with minors.

The Archbishop asked me to investigate these claims, so I hired an independent firm to conduct a thorough investigation. The investigation is ongoing and I will respond appropriately as the process continues.

Please keep all involved in your prayers.
