Unnamed sources have said that Law offered to resign. There's been nothing "for the record" confirming that he did. If you know who the unnamed source is then please share his/her identity. If you have a link to a published confirmation that Law offered to resign then share that as well. Otherwise, it's speculation. If in fact it was offered and rejected perhaps the Pope knew that Law would be better off in the long run being put through the ringer in the press and in depositions and cleaning up the mess he is reponsible for than if he resigned and quietly disappeared into obscurity.
