When Bernie Madoff did the same people say we should worry about his family after all he was a “Tatty” too and we should pray for him ? (I am not saying I would have done so, but if you are going to ask to pray for jews who did the wrong thing, why stop at residents of Kiryat Joel, How about other jews who did wrong)
Did the same people who say we should not condem, give tochcha to the families of the murdered boys while the parents were sitting Shiva? Was any mercy shown to their families whose “Averiah” was being in the wrong place?
Loving your brother does not mean enabling him, Some times tough love is the best love to give. If your brother was Mechalal Shabbos and went in and out as his pleased in your house and did all sorts of things wrong, would you let him do it or would you give tough love?
This is not new news, it was not broken to the public by the “Mesiras Forward”, its been in the news for some time, Ive already seen it in the larger NYC newspapers a few years ago. The only difference now is they are actually arressting people instead of just reporting the news.
