About
Michael Joseph Bransfield (born September 8, 1943) is a former American prelate of the Catholic Church who served as bishop of the Diocese of Wheeling-Charleston, West Virginia from 2005 to 2018. Bransfield was previously an official at the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception from 1980 to 2004. Bransfield retired as bishop in 2018. A church investigation led by Archbishop William E. Lori and five lay experts subsequently took place, to examine "multiple allegations of sexual harassment of adults and financial improprieties" leveled against Bransfield. The report found that the accusations of sexual harassment were credible and detailed extravagant spending by Bransfield. In July 2019, Pope Francis banned Bransfeld from residing anywhere in Diocese of Wheeling-Charleston and also made it so he was not able to “preside or to participate anywhere in any public celebration of the Liturgy,” thus banning him from engaging in public ministry within the Catholic church.
