As a result of an initial internal inquiry and then an independent investigation, and upon the recommendations of the Independent Review Board, Bishop Michael W. Fisher has determined the allegations that Father Joseph Rogliano engaged in acts of sexual misconduct with adults have been substantiated. As a result, at this time, Father Rogliano has been restricted from public ministry.
On Sept. 11, 2023, Father Rogliano was placed on administrative leave. Prior to being placed on leave, he was the pastor of Family 21 composed of Blessed Trinity, SS. Columba-Brigid, St. Lawrence and St. Martin de Porres parishes in Buffalo. In February 2024, he resigned as pastor of Family 21 and retired.
