‘Another one bites the dust’: Church of England’s Justin Welby resigns
Welby’s resignation comes as the historical sex abuse scandal rips through the church. Tuesday after an investigation found that he failed to tell police immediately about a volunteer at Christian summer camps who was involved in sexual abuse for years, he stepped down.
“I believe that stepping aside is the best interests of the Church of England, which I dearly love and which I have been honoured to serve,” Welby said in a statement.
