The retired longtime Episcopal bishop for Western Washington has been barred from exercising his ministry following what his successor calls "a credible allegation of marital infidelity."
The Rt. Rev. Vincent Warner served as Episcopal Bishop of Olympia from 1989 to 2007: Warner surprised the 2002 Episcopal diocesan convention by announcing he was divorcing his wife of nearly four decades. He remarried shortly after his divorce.
