MILWAUKEE —A priest accused of embezzling six figures from his Milwaukee congregation is a no-show in court again.
His attorney said Father James Dokos was admitted to the hospital Monday morning.
She waited outside court to show her support. The former secretary at Annunciation Greek Orthodox Church compared her former boss to Jesus Christ.
“There’s only one man that’s perfect and what did they do to him? He’s gone. He’s dead. They killed him, and that’s what they’re trying to do to Father Jim — crucify him,” church member Stephanie Rauch said.
Rauch said Dokos was a good priest distracted up by worldly possessions.
