Scott Nevins

Today is the first anniversary of Scott Nevin's tragic death. We here at Pokrov.org ask what has been done in the past year by the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese, the Metropolis of San Francisco and the other dioceses to ensure that this tragedy will not be repeated?

The answer?

NOTHING.

Archbishop Demetrios Trakatellis, Metropolitan Gerasimos Michaleas and all the other Greek hierarchs are accountable for what happens at the monasteries founded by Archimandrite Ephraim Moraitis. Scott's blood is on their hands. What more will it take for these leaders to take decisive ACTION against what appears to be a sect within their church that acts like a destructive cult?

While we here at Pokrov.org continue our hopeless wait for some sign of accountability from those in positions of power, we again extend our sympathy to Scott's family and friends. We hope that they find some comfort today in their unimaginable grief.
