The Milwaukee County district attorney’s office has been asked to investigate possible theft from the Annunciation Greek Orthodox Church by a former priest.
Assistant District Attorney David Feiss confirmed Monday that he was reviewing documents sent to the office by Annunciation’s Parish Council. Feiss declined to comment further.
After discovering financial “discrepancies,” the council voted to request the district attorney investigate the matter, according to a news release from the church.
“The concerns that have been raised have nothing to do with current church operations or leadership, and regular church programs, services and normal operations are unaffected and will continue as usual,” Emmanuel Mamalakis, a lawyer representing the church, said in a news release.
