Rubashkin Son-In-Law Arrested For Child Sexual Molestation – Chabad Rabbi Allegedly Molested Boy At School, JCC

Rabbi Yaakov Weiss, 28, is rabbi of Chabad of Colonie near Albany, New York. His wife is…

…Rosa Rubashkin, Sholom M. Rubashkin's daughter.

Weiss moved from Postville to the Albany area in 2004:

Loudonville rabbi accused of sex abuse
Man charged in alleged incidents involving 13-year-old boy
By BRENDAN LYONS, Senior writer

ALBANY — An Albany area rabbi has been arrested on sex abuse charges stemming from alleged incidents involving a 13-year-old boy.

Albany police detectives arrested Yaakov Weiss, 28, of Loudonville Monday and charged him with two counts of third-degree sex abuse and two counts of endangering the welfare of a child, all misdemeanors.

Details pertaining to the case were not immediately available, but Albany police spokesman Det. James Miller said the charges have to do with Weiss' alleged involvement with the boy on at least two occasions — one in November 2007 and the other earlier this year.

The arrest was part of an ongoing investigation that's continuing and comes on the first day of the Jewish High Holy Days on Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.

Weiss was arraigned in Albany City Court and released but it was unclear if bail was set.

His attorney Arnold Proskin was not immediately available for comment.

Weiss, who adheres to a missionary branch of Judaism know as Chabad-Lubavitch, moved to Colonie from Iowa in 2004 with his wife Rosa and an infant daughter. Soon after arriving in the Capital Region, Weiss founded the Chabad of Colonie and the Chabad Hebrew School. He has been outspoken on the issue of public religious expression.

In 2005, he requested a Hanukkah display at Colonie Center Mall but was denied. The mall displayed a 6-foot menorah the following year after Weiss and his supporters lobbied the mall for representation of the Jewish holiday.

Last year, Weiss was part of a movement to have the state Legislature pass a bill mandating a moment of silence each day at school for students to reflect in their own way on the importance of the spiritual in their lives.

Here is a birth announcement for Weiss' daughter, published on Shmais, a Chabad website, in 2004. Note his wife is identified as Rosa Rubashkin:

Rabbi's Court Date Set

ALBANY — The rabbi accused of having a sexual relationship with a 13-year-old boy has been released on his own recognizance and will appear in court on Oct. 7.

Yaakov Weiss, 28, of Loudonville, who founded the Chabad of Colonie in 2004, allegedly had sexual contact with the victim beginning in December. Police said at least one of the incidents occurred at a Whitehall Road site and at least two others were at a New Scotland Avenue location.

Police said Weiss is charged with two counts of third-degree sex abuse and two counts of endangering the welfare of a child. He was arraigned Monday in Albany Criminal Court.…

The nature of the charges according to Fox23 News:

…A source tells FOX23 News that one incident happened at the Jewish Community Center on Whitehall Road and two other incidents happened at a school on the 400 block of New Scotland Avenue.

Police aren't elaborating on what exactly allegedly happened.

"They're misdemeanor charges," says Detective Miller. "Inappropriate sexual contact is what occurred."…

This may mean no penetration occurred. We'll have to wait to find out.

UPDATE 12:45 AM 10-2-08 – It appears Rabbi Yaakov Weiss's father is Rabbi Meshulam Weiss, a Lubavitcher rabbi who, it seems, certifies as kosher some of Agriprocessors meat.

Rabbi Weiss lived for many years in Miami, where he was a rabbi. If memory serves me, he then moved to the Los Angeles area for a number of years, and may have taught in a Chabad cheder (primary school). After Yaakov married Rosa Rubashkin, Rabbi Meshulam Weiss and his wife moved to Postville.

Rabbi and Mrs. Meshulam Weiss have 15 children. Yaakov may be the youngest.

What follows is a story Rabbi Meshulam Weiss wrote for the January 11, 2008 edition of L'Chaim, the Chabad publication published in Crown Heights and distributed by yeshiva students and through subscriptions:

A Slice of Life
by Rabbi Meshulam Weiss

Many years ago I was diagnosed with skin cancer on my lower lip. I had the cancer removed, along with 1/3 of my lip. I am extremely careful not to cut any part of my beard. That is because the Torah commands us to allow our beard to grow and there is a prohibition not to shave one's beard. The surgeon, Dr. Frieman, was very sensitive to this fact. He did not touch even one hair of my beard in the course of the surgery.

About two years ago, I noticed a sore developing on my lip again. When my wife saw it she became very concerned, since it was on the same spot as the first one was. We waited a few days to see if it would go away, but instead it started to grow and spread. In fact, it started to spread downward toward my chin. All the skin under the sore became discolored. I showed it to my doctor and he was quite alarmed. He sent me to a specialist at the Mayo Clinic. The doctor examined me, diagnosed it as a skin cancer, measured it with a special ruler and took pictures of it with a digital camera. He said that he would have to operate, not just on the lip like the first time, but also down toward the chin.

My wife asked Dr. Remington if he would have to shave my beard, and he said that he would have to remove at least part of my beard. I was in shock. My wife told the doctor that we understood that due to the severity of the illness and the nature of the procedure, it would not be possible to completely avoid shaving part of my beard, but that still under no circumstance was he to use a razor; and he would have to use an electric shaver, as there are some leniencies in Jewish law for using an electric shaver. The doctor agreed and scheduled the surgery for 7:30 a.m. the following Thursday.

I left the doctor's office trembling. I wasn't upset about the surgery, nor even that my cancer had returned. What sent me to tears was that my beard, even part of it, would have to be shaven. Until that moment I never realized how important my beard was to me.

On Sunday I called the Chabad House at the Ohel (the Lubavitcher Rebbe's resting place) and asked them to inform the Rebbe what was happening and to ask the Rebbe for a blessing. I added that I wanted them to tell the Rebbe how sorry I was that part of my beard would have to be shaved.

Sunday night the sore on my lip stopped hurting and a crust started to form. Monday morning the crust fell off and the sore was gone. By Monday night the entire discoloration under my lip started to fade. I woke up Tuesday morning, looked into the mirror, and to my amazement I could see no trace of anything.

I left a message at Dr. Remington's office and Wednesday morning I got a call from his nurse telling me that under the circumstances, the doctor was canceling the surgery for Thursday. However, he wanted to see me in his office at 9:00 a.m. to do a biopsy. I went to the doctor's office on Thursday and the doctor looked at me. He began to examine my whole lip, all the while muttering to himself. He glanced at my chart with the measurements and pictures, looked at my face again, sighed and sat back on his chair.

My wife asked him if he was going to do the biopsy now, and he turned to her and said, "On what? It's all gone. There is nothing there."

The doctor then turned to me and asked, "What medicine have you been taking?" I told him "none." He asked, "What ointment did you put on your lip?" Again I said, "None."

By now he was getting pretty frustrated. "You had to have done something," he said, "cancer doesn't go away by itself."

"Well," I said, "I prayed a lot and I called my Rebbe in New York to pray on my behalf."

"Pray? You prayed? And that's why you were cured?"

" I guess so."

The doctor looked at me and asked, " If I give you a list of names, will you pray for them also?"

"By all means," I said.

He started to laugh. "Dr. Remington," I said, "I am being serious." He then told me to call him again if I need him (G-d forbid). I thought to myself, "Don't worry, I'll know who to call."

Oh man, just when you thought you've heard everything already.

How is this guy related to Meshulam Weiss of West Military Rd in Postville who gives hashgocho on non-glatt Agri meat?

How is this guy related to Meshulam Weiss of West Military Rd in Postville who gives hashgocho on non-glatt Agri meat?

I don't know. What kosher symbol does Meshullam Weiss use? Or is he working for Zeilingold?

~~~~~~~~~~

It's also important to remember that, even if Yaakov Weiss is guilty, that doesn't really reflect badly on the Rubashkins.

Sadly, this type of crime can happen anywhere.

[Yossi]

We had a Conservative Cantor in the area (Albany) who was terminated and convicted on similar charges just a couple years ago. He was a Torah V'Daas alum and, I'm led to believe, married into the Klass family.

If this proves to be true, it would be a disgrace, Chilul Hashem and a Chilul Lubavitch. BTW I am not a Chabadnik. When a "frum" Jew behaves, the are held to a higher standard.

According to VIN (I'm surprised they published the story) someone called the NY State tipline.

Amazing how the Rubashkin connection continues to play out. Is any member of that family not a scumbag?

[Rachel Batya]

According to the article on VIN:

'Albany Public Safety Officer James Miller said, "The victim along with some of the other classmates were talking about what happened. Somebody overheard that, anonymously called into the New York State tipline.'

Glad to see someone somewhere is calling the police when they see or hear something questionable.

[WoolSIlkCotton]

Shmarya (8:33pm):
With all due respect, you began the story with the words "Rubashkin Son-In-Law..."

[Archie Bunker]

Meshulam Weiss is a stand alone certifier. When Rubashkin has supply problems in filling orders in California, the Los Angeles kashrus agencies who apparently believe that the Aaron's Best label is truly always "glatt", do not allow the other Agri labels in local supermarkets / butcher stores. Weiss then steps in to provide certification. Of course, if he has any connection to the Rubashkin family, that is a conflict of interest.

If you'd like more information, he can be reached here:

True. And that's news. But it does not make the Rubashkin family automatically guilty, which is the point of my comment above.

If this proves to be true, it would be a disgrace, Chilul Hashem and a Chilul Lubavitch. BTW I am not a Chabadnik. When a "frum" Jew behaves, the are held to a higher standard.

--------------------------------------
Chillul Lubavitch?

HA!

Whether Vicki is Attila the Hun or mother Teresa or f&) %*ng Genghis Kahn has noting to do with our discussion and is irrelevant. She says nothing of her own accord, merely quotes mainstream papers that would have been sued if they lied at all. If the media reports allegations then Vicki reports the allegations, nothing more. What u believe is up to you, she has also posted ( the case of zerach brown ) and others where rabbis single out non rabbinical people for heavy handed treatment and warned the public about them , she reiterated and posted their own publications about him. Y prey tell, have they posted nothing about much more egregious forms of abuse? When rabbis were the perpetrators.
As to Satanism, it exists, - deal with it
Even among Jews
We have people of all walks of life and backgrounds coming to Judaism
Mentally ill Jews are prone to the same moral decrepitude as other mentally ill people.
A leading Jewish scholar has written that some torture crazed Jews in the middle ages may have (in isolated incidents) attempted revenge on murderous gentiles by using their blood for matzah. In our own time holocaust survivors contemplated a plan to kill one million Germans, by poisoning the water supply - presumably many casualties would have been babies
You are the sick puppy not Vicki, would u tell someone not to be religious because his rabbi is a liar or mentally ill
No! U would say accept the truth no matter who tells it
Vicki merely reports and does not even throw in her two cents
Not that it would matter
The public is only interested in hard facts
Would u stop using properly wrapped clean soap because the soap salesman was dirty or stop brushing your teeth or going to a dentist due to the dentist having cavities? Or start smoking since your pulmonologist was a smoker with lung problems? I don’t think so
Can u point to any cases that were not only unfounded but where the target was innocent? Proven so?
Of the millions of Jews and Jew wannabes in various states of transition, can there not be some few Satanists? Should we not praise Vicki for overcoming her satanic parental induced psychosis and channeling her efforts into exposing the rabbis for the morally decrepit spiritually bankrupt pundits they are?
And these anonymous bloggers expect us to believe what they write and viki does not even write anything of her own accord and they disbelieve her. Many Jews are mentally ill and just as in regular society Satanism is a well kept secret there can be a modicum fit in Jewish communities. Consider the sabbateans and franksits that are advocating adultery and other sin and crimes conversions so they can elevate the act ? Very few know about em until they went public but they exist and walk among us nonetheless. What is behind the baby sacrifice and the gaining power?

So what else is new

If u r interested in this

U may as well know that the families of tendler bryks and faskowitz and Brenner, many of whom have been charged with violent child sexual abuse, fake credentials and violent assaults on adult an child females are all intermarried and interrelated

The wedding of bryks' daughter to faskowitz last week is noteworthy for another reason:

Faskowitz' is related to mordy mordechai tendler, and one of tendlers main and few supporters is rabbi faskowitz. Faskowitz resigned from the RCA in protest of tendler's dismissal from that org. faskowitz is also a defender of bryks.
Both faskowitz and mordy tendler are related to Sharon Tendler, who made world headlines by marrying a dolphin. Both bryks and tendler have a reputation for both annulling bonafide marriages

Just another case of intermarrying among self proclaimed authorities that have earned derision from Jews everywhere.

(Well it’s cheaper than having to fund the bukharian Jews website and nnissanovs shul)

Which the bryks-Brenner (convicted sex offender lewis lippa brenner is Ephraim boruch Halevy bryks' father in-law)heavily involved in fraud mortgage company supports.

by now u r aware that Sharon tendler (the English millionaires rock promotress that married a dolphin in a ceremony officiated by a chabad Rabbi named Mendy) and mordy mordechai tendler are related what u don’t know is that the dolphin wanted out of the marriage calling Sharon a "primitive creature" who was related to a delusional grouper and self proclaimed messiah. The dolphin refused to give her a 'get' - religious divorce- demanding reconciliation, marital counseling and resumption of conjugal rights! Mordy's own mechutan(relation by marriage) , Ephraim boruch Halevy bryks - proud possessor of no less than fifty fake Israeli cracker jack box semichas,(rabbinic ordinations) - -- you’re right again, - bryks new found son in law is a close relative of mordy's wife and { Rabbi Faskowitz - uncle of byrks son in law - (who recently resigned from the RCA in protest about the belated pussyfoot dismissal of tendler and similarly defended bryk during his ouster form the rca a few years ago, -in a two page letter to the “Jewish” Press) does not defend him but instead maligns the entire RCA. Faskowitz’s mother’s maiden name is Joffen just as Michelle Tendler’s maiden name is Joffen. That is because he is her first cousin! Here is another case of a relative standing up to support the Tendlers.} Ephraim boruch Halevy bryks stepped in to save the day by annulling the marriage, free of charge. Peta activists who demonstrated outside the office where the , - bryks - dolphin 'head to head' annulment took place; reported that both the creature(the dolphin) and bryks(the monster) emerged from the room "hot and sweaty". This strange goings on have not perturbed in the slightest Mordy's father, Moshe Tendler of YU fame,

Tendler and bryks have together annulled hundreds of bonafide marriages creating thousands of illegitimate momzeirim. keep in mind that these holy rollers tell their constituents never to marry anyone from a conservative or reform backgrounds , saying they are "tainted'
ps:
when bryks says 'mimeihem ani shoteh', referring to th edivrei torah of his brother in law MB krhonz disease and father in law lipp –to -ass brenner he leaves us wondering which mayim he means. Let there be no mistake metzizah bpeh is Assur, only women like Michelle tendler and yocheved bryks can administer it.. And an occasional underage girl ... -- or boy!

So Rachel bluth and melech bluth and elazar teits teitz have business relationships with Ephraim bryks and some mutual relatives pesach krohn and lewis brenner - bryks convicted sex offender father in law are cronies and cover for bryks and Rachel bluth bryks long time girlfriend and both of them are married

At least with the Agri connection, he doesn't have to go hunting for raw meat.

is this the same yakov weiss related to shimon aka shimmy and issac of issacs bakery and the other 10 sibs from miami florida , all who are not playin with the arba koisos?
if so, the incidents reported here are kindershpiel in comparison to the sexual exploitation and abuse perpetrated by this family

[Jake]

Want to point out per an article in this months oshrus Today variouse kashrus agencies were asked about how they verify the products of other agencies.

One of the respondemts was I beleive the Vaad for southern california.

Interestingly their response was that they generlaly automatically accept the kashrus opinion of the major agencies (OU, OK, etc ) but not fot their meats.

That may be a reason why Rabbi weiss ended up in Pottsville to be the eyes and ears for the local kashrus organization.

Just a possibility...........

i read the article again and it is certain he is form the same family and there are 15 children not 12
what about the fruadulent real estatee deals and scams carried out by shimmy his brother and group sex and orgies where unwitting participants were not given a chance to refuse by him issac and other members of the clan even if they weren't related but merely shabbas guests?

So because he is Sholom Rubashkin's mechutan, he got the hashgocho opportunity.

Meshulam Weiss is orginally from Los Angeles and is the father of Yaakov Yoel Weiss of Lewd-onVille.

As I wrote in the update to my post, the family was originally from Miami Beach. Meshulam Weiss moved to LA perhaps 15 years ago and then to Postville in about 2002.

Just so you know, this is not the Chabad of Albany which is near the state university.
30 years ago I went to the chabad there and coming from a college in nearby Troy was always welcome to stay Shabbat. The Rabbi, Rabbi Rubin was amazing, a true erlicher yid.

His son is now in charge and by all accounts is continuing his father's work.

[Archie Bunker]

Yes, but the Rubins also control Saratoga Chabad which is where some of the molestation allegedly took place.

It's ironic that this happened in Albany, where state lawmakers are still dilly dallying with the bill to protect private school children from molesters. Maybe this will get them moving somewhat. We need to continue pressuring Shelly Silver to pass the mandatory background check/fingerprinting bill along with the bill to extend the statute of limitations.

The investigation is still open as police try to determine if there are additional victims.

[Archie Bunker]

Weiss sure was quick to take down his websites for Colonie Chabad.

[Archie Bunker]

I wonder what Weiss's motivation was for setting up in the Albany area. The area is saturated with Chabad centers and Colonie has another one run by Mendel Serebryanski. What's interesting is that Rubin's website lists every Chabad affiliate except Weiss. Rubin is obviously the head shaliach in the area. Did he oppose Weiss setting up shop? Does Weiss have a "history" from his yeshiva days?

[Archie Bunker]

This article also features SHelly Silver running to Rubin's Chabad to fress on food.

when thousands of concerned Jewish parents and educators motored up to Albany by the busload to show support for a tuition tax credit bill, Chabad of Colonie representative Rabbi Yaakov Weiss extended the Chabad welcome. From a truck stationed near the Capitol building, Rabbi Weiss distributed hot coffee, bottled water and snacks. Some rally goers, whose mass presence was organized by the Orthodox Union and Agudath Israel of America, gathered near Rabbi Weiss’s truck to recite the afternoon prayers.

"This may mean no penetration occurred."

In some states at least, 3rd degree sexual assault entails some kind of penetration.

[Archie Bunker]

N.Y. Penal Law § 130.55. Sexual abuse in the third degree

A person is guilty of sexual abuse in the third degree when he or she subjects another person to sexual contact without the latter's consent; except that in any prosecution under this section, it is an affirmative defense that (a) such other person's lack of consent was due solely to incapacity to consent by reason of being less than seventeen years old, and (b) such other person was more than fourteen years old, and (c) the defendant was less
than five years older than such other person. Sexual abuse in the third degree is a class B misdemeanor.

The other Haraidim would probably just ignore Shmarya to death.

[invisible hand]

Shmarya, you know I am a fan, but some of these postings are clearly Loshon Hara. What we know is that someone has been accused of molestation. We don't know the strength of the evidence. We have no evidence he was protected by family connections, or that the family had any knowledge of any tendencies toward this. Several of the comments leap way beyond any evidence to make generalizations about "those people." Really, this is not right.
We should also be aware that when cases of sexual abuse become publicized there is an explosion of legitimate cases, but also some copycat claims that are without foundation.
I am not defending anyone, nor asserting their innocence. I am asking everyone to reserve judgment until there is a trial and to avoid trashing people they don't like because they are in a vulnerable situation.
We may not all like each other, but we can behave fairly to each other.

And?

I can't stop people from being jerks.

The second comment on this post is from me. In part, it says:

t's also important to remember that, even if Yaakov Weiss is guilty, that doesn't really reflect badly on the Rubashkins.

Sadly, this type of crime can happen anywhere.

I think that's pretty clear.

You can't stop people from posting but you have deleted posts in the past.

You are sitting back and watching the cesspool form.

Why you let Bunker take over your blog is beyond me.

You'll note I edited a few of his comments on this post. You'll also note I did that long before you or anyone else complained.

I think you should change your last name to head.

and your first name to shit.

Ahhh, the subjects we talk about during the 10 days of teshuva. Stick to the facts! If a person transgresses, or breaks the law, he is responsible for himself and his own actions. Even if he comes from a family of sinners, they are not responsible for his actions. The Rubashkins, despite their own investigations, had nothing to do with this man's choice to hurt children. Yaakov Weiss, who is trying to implement the Rebbe's idea of "A moment of Silence" in public schools, can use a few moments of silence himself. Now that he's exposed, he makes the Rebbe and his teachings look ridiculous, and progress turns backwards. Thanks for erasing all the hard work CHabad has done, you filthy evil pig of a pedophile. Unfortunately, frum Chassidim are so oblivious to the growing crime of child molesters that they are frightening our victims out of coming forward. Time to change!!!!

Very clever. M'stamah a graduate of the Lakewood Yeshiva?

[Leibel Bronstein]

Guys Nothing has been proven.
Anybody can make a call to the police if they dont like you. I can make a call and get whomever I want arrested at this point there is really no telling if this is true. Especially when the boy "victim" himself doesnt admit to it.

[LocalYokel]

Leibel doesn't know what he's talking about. Arrests don't happen by anonymous calls to tip lines.

1. Judges don't sign arrest warrants for anonymous calls to tiplines. I have a friend with a family member going through a LOT (a different perv--er, perp) with a lot of evidence and the judge still won't sign the arrest warrant. There has to be a might lot of evidence, and a signed affidavit by the victim in most cases, for a court to proceed.
2. Yes, the victims do admit to it. (See why that's necessary above)
3. Sure nothing's proven, but having children, I'd sure want to know and to warn other parents. Not only would I want to know, I'd be infuriated if others knew and didn't tell me in order to protect my children. If Leibel is so sure this is shtuss, let him send his kid over to his house for private tutoring.

Yes, yes it just goes on and on with Chabad persecution and degrading of the human race.

Children have no chance and then as they near there over thirteen years they are ran off after a Bar Mitzvah.

Maybe because of competition like the Mormons do?

I would like to know who the lawyer is for the minor in this case.

Cha-bad needs stopped and fast. the more witness to show what kind of abusers they are and how they support sex crimes in Cha-bad will help the victims in the cases.

To not expose the victims lawyer name is to help Cha-bad and the abusers Krinsky gang who has lied in courts to win before to win.

Cha-bad should not be allowed to teach children final it is unsafe and they destroy Jewish lives for profit and power.

HELLO!

At least 1 victim IS Lubavitch! There are sickos everywhere. This is far from a Chabad problem especially.

This is a kehilla who when faced with a sicko among them, is doing the right thing and NOT sweeping it under the rug like unforunately so many other frum communities have done.

DAMN JEWS ALWAYS SCREWING UP THINGS!

[Orin]

The Albany Times Union is protecting this perv, censoring the blogs, and wouldn’t post the following in their Crime Confidential Blog.

He is part of the Rubashkin family. Shalom M Rubashkin is his wife’s father who is on trial in federal court facing years in prison on over 150 counts including bank fraud and working young children illegally in the family run slaughterhouse, Argriprocessors. Did this Rabbi work at the Iowa slaughterhouse before recently moving to Colonie? It’s common knowledge that cruelty to animals can be a precursor to cruelty against human beings. PETA filmed animal abuse at the kosher family slaughterhouse and videos on youtube by searching for the business name, Agriprocessors. Shouldn’t kosher procedures meet PETA scrutiny? The kids and I were crying watching what inhumane things the Rabbis did to the poor cows, turning them upside down in an inversion machine and second cutting their throats, while the animals scream, knowing their fate. One rabbi kicks blood in the face of the dying cow as filmed. Disguising neveila and tereifa. Wikipedia tells the sordid story of the slaughterhouse. Even facing a long prison sentence, Shalom Rubashkin is smiling in AP pictures, carrying a bible in his hand, but no flower basket. Is there anything more insidious than Rabbis taking advantage of illegals to employ them for low wages in miserable work conditions, akin to modern slavery. The captives were freed by the immigration raid. Let him try slapping my son on the back and kicking him. Why doesn’t the times union show the email letter from the Rabbi, like they showed the denial letter from the accused Bethlehem Chief Corsi?

[SIMCHA]

IT SEEMS TO ME THAT SO MANY RUBASHKIN'S HAVE BEEN ARRESTED. FIRST MOSHE RUBASHKIN,SHALOM,BALKANY SON IN LAW OF RUBASHIN, NOW THIS WITH CHILD MOLESTING. AARON THE FATHER TAUGHT HIS CHILDREN WELL. I READ THAT AARON THE FATHER WAS CHARGING UNION DUES FROM HIS EMPLOYEES, AND HE KEPT THE MONEY, HE WAS CAUGHT, AND HAD TO PAY BACK THE MONEY. STUPID PEOPLE IF THEY DID EVERYTHING HONESTLY, THEY COULD OF BEEN RICH, AND HAD NO PROBLEMS. THEY THOUGHT THAT THEY WERE ABOVE THE LAW!!!!!

[abused child]

Sexual molestation is a problem iin the Jewish orthodox commnunity. In fact Zerach Brown was a predatory child molester as is documented in this blog: zerachbrown.blogspot.com
