Alleged Haredi Pedophile Jumps Bail, Flees England

Rabbi Todros Grynhaus – previously known as T.G. in reporting on this blog – jumped bail and fled Great Britain, allegedly with the help of a wealthy member of Britain’s haredi community.
The Jewish Chronicle is reporting that police have issued an alert for Grynhaus.
Multiple credible British sources told FailedMessiah.com that the 48-year-old rabbi had fled the country by using a passport of another hasid given to him by the wealthy member of Britain’s haredi community and is believed to be in Israel.
In December, Grynhaus, of the Salford area of Manchester, was charged with six counts of indecent assault and one count of sexual assault against three minors, all under 15. He pleaded not guilty.
"He has failed to reside at his designated bail address and therefore
breached his conditions. Inquiries are ongoing to establish his
whereabouts and anyone with information should phone police on 101 or
the independent charity Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111," a police spokesman reportedly said.
A prominent London rabbi was arrested earlier this week on suspicion of sexual abuse and three other prominent haredim were arrested with him on obstruction of justice and witness tampering charges. Sources tell FailedMessiah.com that all four men were released on bail today. Their next court date is in 14 days.
Thanks for the tip. I will make sure to keep my hands on my crotch and zipper closed at all times until he is caught.

I guess if you've seen one old guy with a long beard and peyos, you've seen them all?
Or all UK security people have that face blindness thing where everyone looks the same to them?

This is why you cannot release the frumma on bail. And when Israel doesn't return him, don't be surprised at the negative comments in the Brit press about Israel providing safe haven for Jewish criminals.

This is why U.S. judges like Linda Reade always make the right decision when they consider Jewish defendants, or at least the frimma ones, as potential flight risks and make them surrender their passports--because all too often, haredim in Israel will reflexively harbor scoundrels like Avraham Mondrowitz; or Israeli officials are frequently loathe to hand over Jews to non-jewish governments.

Israel has extradition treaty with the US.
It did extradite a number of criminals to the US

But not Mondrowitz and more. And Yosef Ruach escaped and is not even wanted. Perhaps because they didn't manage to arrest him yet?

Why has ruach got away with committing such terrible crimes?
