It makes me sick when Rabbis have to cover up these things. Why should a Jew who did such horrible things not face the consequences of this actions? I just heard of a sick one now…member of a family molested another member of the family.(I prefer not to give the details) but this man should be put in jail and deserves it! How dare he molest a child? And then when the truth comes out how can you not believe something like that? Why would a child want to make something like this up? It’s brave of a child when they say “I was touched here.” You need to commend them not condem them! When I was a child I used to get nervous when I was the last one on the bus because I didnt know what this bus driver would do. So I used to get off the bus with someone else and walk home. Yes I was only 13 but again, I was taught that there are sickos out there and I need to be careful. I didnt want to be put into a situation that could become dangerous. There is absolutely no reason why molesting should be covered up. Unfortuntely it happens and the person doing it deserves to be punished, NOT have his life saved from humility. He lost his privliges the second he took life away from a child. Why do I say it like that? Because that child’s life has been ruined forever! That man deserves to sit and rot in jail. You can say a Jew shouldnt sit in jail. However that’s wrong in this situation. He lost his Jewish Identity when he touched that child. How can respect be shown to a rabbi who covers this up? or to a rabbi whos doing this? IT IS WRONG! plain and simply wrong!
