MILWAUKEE (AP) — Former Milwaukee Archbishop Rembert Weakland apologized Friday and begged for forgiveness for the scandal caused by a $450,000 settlement with a man who accused him of sexual assault. Speaking at a prayer service, Weakland acknowledged an "inappropriate relationship" decades ago with a 30-year-old theology student. He said he agreed to the settlement because he feared bringing embarrassment to himself and the church. In hindsight, Weakland said he understood how it could appear to be "hush money."
