I am sure this goes on more often that we are ware of, I blame this on the Mashgiach. His sole responsibility is to prevent things like this, if he can’t do that then he is not doing his job.
The owner of this shop has to be prosecuted and put away for this actions as well.

Just wanted to clarify for anybody who knows me that the poster above called “chafetz chaim” is not me. I don’t know anything about this case other than what was reported in the email and here on YWN.

no one is covering this up, my point isa clear,BEING THAT THE INVESTIGATION IS NOT COMPLETE, YOU CANNOT DRAW CONCLUTIONS FROM AMEI HAARETZ LIKE A COMPETITOR DERYL SHWARTZ OR FREI NEWSPAPERS AND BASH RABBONIM ALL THE WHILE FOR “COVERING UP”!!!!

DID YOU NOTICE A CONCLUSTION YET? NO! SO WHY MAKE YOUR OWN BASED ON SHADY AND SHAKY FACTS

again, dont get me wrong this guy from doheny is a rasha gamur and nichshol rabim
but to bash the rabbonim isnt the answer, the hecsher that certified the guy in monsey is still around and that was way worse!!

To “chofetz chaim”:
You see, its guys like you who like to “cover up” scandals like this under the guise of “Frumkeit”! Who is being hurt over here? People who ARE Frum! I’m sure you believe that the RASHA who was “caught” in Monsey selling Treiffa meat, was also a Tzaddik! Frum people pay more than anyone else when it comes to meat because they want a good Hechsher! They PAY for it! This is not some Chesed by some poor store owner trying to help Kosher consumers! Based on your other comments regarding this SCANDAL, one would have to conclude that you have some hand in this cover up!

meat bought there until before 3 p.m. Sunday “is permitted to be eaten and can be enjoyed on Yom Tov.”

There are some very disappointing aspects to this saga.

Firstly, most readers may not know this fact, but Mike Engelman, the owner of Doheny, is NOT religious. He is a Freia’a yid who is NOT shomer Shabbas,

The question that behooves from this aforementioned fact, is why would the RCC give a hechsher to a Freia’a yid, instead of allowing capitalism to play itself out, so that, at the very least, a Frum yid could build a parnasa from distributing meat.

And lastly, even more disappointing, is the fact that already 21 years ago, the Chabad community caught this crook selling Treifa meat in the Long Beach area of California, before he moved to Pico.

Someone will one day have to answer up for these questions.

I think “no comment ” is a big statement. Nobody takes that kind of accusation sitting down unless…….
