LU: Why did I say it?
Because many time$, Rabbi$ have made bad deci$ions about mole$ter$, ignoring the well-being of the ma$$e$ to help protect $pecific people.
In some cases, there was a different motivation. My mother told me that when she was looking into kindergartens for my older brother, there was a specific yeshiva she was looking into. She got anonymous phone calls telling her that there was a known molester there, and it was being covered up to protect the yeshiva. As most know, many details about it came out only a few years ago. The yeshiva world used their political influence to get the pervert a light sentence, without having to register as an offender.
In another community, a girl was molested by the person who was supposed to be the “therapist” (although he had no education in the area). The Rabbis who run the community ostracized her family, and blamed her. They protected the pervert again.
