Rt. Rev. Stephen Conway, the Anglican bishop of Lincoln, England, was arrested on suspicion of sexually assaulting a man.
The 68-year-old prelate, who has led the Anglican diocese since 2023, was previously bishop of Ramsbury (2006-10) and Ely (2010-23).
(The Catholic Church teaches that Anglican orders are invalid: in his 1896 apostolic letter Apostolicae Curae, Pope Leo XIII taught that “ordinations performed according to the Anglican Rite have been and are completely null and void.”)
