NEW YORK (AP) â Citing allegations of âpossible improper behavior,â the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops on Tuesday announced the resignation of its top administrative official, Monsignor Jeffrey Burrill, ahead of a media report that probed his private romantic life.
Shortly after the announcement, the Roman Catholic news outlet The Pillar published its article based on data it said was âcorrelated to Burrillâs mobile deviceâ and indicated he had visited gay bars and private residences using a dating app popular with gay people.
The Pillar alleged âserial sexual misconductâ by Burrill â homosexual activity is considered sinful under Catholic doctrine, and priests are expected to remain celibate.

A priest who grew up in Marshfield and previously served Catholic parishes in Wisconsin has resigned as the administrative head of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops after impending media reports alleging possible improper behavior, the organization said Tuesday.
The accusations against Monsignor Jeffrey D. Burrill shared with the Conference of Catholic Bishops do not include misconduct with minors, President Jose Gomez said in a memo to members, which the National Catholic Reporter posted Tuesday on Twitter. Gomez also serves as archbishop of Los Angeles.
U.S. bishops elected Burrill as their general secretary Nov. 16, 2020. Before that, he served as associate general secretary for more than four years. Burrill served at St. Bronislava Church in Plover from 2013 to 2016 and moved to Washington, D.C., after his election as general secretary.
