He swore on oath to tell the truth, and then refused to tell the truth because it might have incriminated him.
One can only draw the conclusion that the Bishop is guilty, an innocent man would'nt have to take refuge behind the fifth amendment if he had nothing to hide, would he?

If you have nothing to hide why would you need to invoke them?
