Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence confess and apologize for public indecency.
A Local Chapter of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence Apologizes for Disturbing Incident
A local chapter of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence is issuing a heartfelt apology following a shocking incident that recently came to light. According to The Daily Wire, a former member of the community was arrested last month for engaging in public masturbation at a beachfront park in California.
A Community Member’s Troubling Actions
The individual in question, Clinton Monroe Ellis-Gilmore, had been an active participant in the local Eureka, California chapter of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence for several years. Shockingly, Ellis-Gilmore even attended a drag reading at a public school with the group back in 2018, going by various names such as “Novice Sister Bethe Cockhim” and “Novice Sister Man Romeo,” as revealed through social media posts.
The Eureka House of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence expressed deep regret over Ellis-Gilmore’s arrest, acknowledging that it tarnishes their reputation. In a statement provided to The Daily Wire by Sister Marymagnalaid, the group unreservedly condemned the alleged behavior and expressed their embarrassment and disappointment.
A Controversial Group Under Scrutiny
The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence had previously garnered attention when they were honored by the Los Angeles Dodgers. This decision sparked controversy within the community due to the group’s reputation for mocking the Catholic faith.
The Disturbing Incident
According to police records, Ellis-Gilmore was apprehended after multiple witnesses reported him sitting with no pants on, one leg out of the vehicle, and the other propped up on the dashboard while masturbating at Table Bluff County Park. Witnesses claimed that it was evident Ellis-Gilmore wanted to draw attention to his actions.
The local chapter clarified that although Ellis-Gilmore had been involved, he was never a full-fledged member of the group. They emphasized that their admission process is rigorous and thorough, aiming to ensure that new members do not bring dishonor to their order.
A Profound Apology to the Community
The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence expressed their deepest apologies to the community and specifically to anyone affected by this unacceptable behavior. They stressed that the incident does not reflect their order, values, or the countless individuals who serve as Sisters.
Photos on social media depict Ellis-Gilmore attending numerous events with the group alongside his husband, Bill Gilmore, known as “Saint Gives More.” Although not members of the “Abby,” the group recognizes “Saints” as special individuals who have made significant contributions to the community or the Sisters.
The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence expressed frustration that this incident occurred while they were in the national spotlight. They urged their critics to consider the actions of all current and former members of their own organizations before casting judgment on their entire group based on the alleged behavior of one individual.
Legal Consequences
If convicted, Ellis-Gilmore could face six months of imprisonment, a $1,000 fine, and the requirement to register as a sex offender.
