Reply To: Lessons Learned from the False Arrest of the Innocent Tzadik in Flatbush

besalel: So what she’ll be offended? We don’t change any halachos or hanhagos or minhagim because someone or anyone is offended by them. Did you really think that you could take a poll of women and if Gallup came back saying 53% are offended we scratch out that Halacha out and consider it to be archaic and thereby repealed?

That all said, you’re incorrect in assuming they’ll collectively be offended.

Getting back to original point, and the crux of this issue, I’m glad you agree the video completely exonerates the innocent Tzadik. But, Besalel, what if the Shul lacked a video camera in their hallway (as with most charged criminal cases lack a video of the incident); do you realize then that this innocent Tzadik would right now likely be languishing in prison pending trial on felony charges of attempting to kidnap as child, as the mother accused him of and the police originally charged him with?
