We prove that for a negatively pinched ($-b^2\le\cK\le -1$) topologically tame 3-manifold $\skew5\tilde{M}/\Gamma$, all geometrically infinite ends are simply degenerate. And if the limit set of $\Gamma$ is the entire boundary sphere at infinity, then the action of $\Gamma$ on the boundary sphere is ergodic with respect to harmonic measure, and the Poincaré series diverges when the critical exponent is 2.
