  1. Everybody knows that this case had zero evidence. It was all the statement of a girl that was an outcast and mechalel shabbos.
    I totally don’t understand how in the world this was posted on this ehrliche website.
    There is a yid that has a 30 year sentence on the basis of no evidence.
    How can you sleep in your warm bed every night knowing this?
    And after so many years, there are a few ehrliche Yiden that are trying to help him you post such a video r”l!!!

  2. They sentenced him to 100 years because he’s a frum yid ‘rebbi’.
    Mr Gluck wants a fellow yid to rot in jail with no evidence that he commited a crime other then taking the word of a מחללת שבת who is not trusted אל פי תורה.
    And even if true, he has already suffered 13 years in jail while the avarage sentence for such crime is clearly not a life sentence.
    I think he should retract and apologize.

  3. Here are some things to understand before you start giving your opinion

    1️⃣ There was ZERO physical or forensic evidence — none.
    Not one shred.
    No DNA.
    No medical exam.
    No injuries documented.
    No photos.
    No clothing.
    No texts.
    No recordings.
    No contemporaneous notes from a doctor, counselor, or teacher.

    The accusations surfaced YEARS later — when everyone already knows physical evidence becomes impossible.
    If a system is allowed to hand out 100+ year sentences on nothing but delayed memories, that’s a problem for EVERYONE.

    2️⃣ The entire conviction rested on ONE person’s testimony.
    No witnesses ever saw anything inappropriate.
    No one walked in on anything.
    No one heard anything.
    No one reported anything at the time.

    Just a single narrative describing events supposedly repeated over multiple years with zero external confirmation.
    And the prosecution themselves admitted there was no corroboration — yet still pushed for a life-destroying sentence.

    3️⃣ She refused any independent testing, evaluation, or verification.
    That’s not normal for a real victim who wants the truth to be clear.
    She refused:
    • psychological evaluations
    • lie detector tests
    • forensic interviews with neutral experts

    When someone refuses every objective method of verifying their story, that should raise eyebrows for anyone with basic common sense.

    4️⃣ The timeline changed whenever something didn’t match.
    This is the most suspicious part — and nobody talks about it.

    When dates didn’t make sense → the story “clarified.”
    When locations didn’t line up → the explanation “adjusted.”
    When details contradicted school schedules → they were “reframed.”
    When inconsistencies were pointed out → they were “reinterpreted.”

    That’s not how truthful testimony behaves.
    Truth stays the same.
    Only fiction needs editing.

    5️⃣ “They were alone together” is NOT evidence of anything.
    He was a counselor. Private sessions were NORMAL and EXPECTED.
    Using the fact that someone did their job as “proof” of abuse is completely insane.
    If that counts as evidence, then rabbis, teachers, tutors, therapists, and mentors everywhere should be terrified — because ANYONE can be accused after the fact.

    6️⃣ Normal teenage behavior was used as fake corroboration.
    Rebellion, mood swings, emotional struggles, tension with parents — this is literally every 12–16 year old on earth.
    To twist normal teenage behavior into “signs of abuse” is intellectually dishonest and legally dangerous.

    7️⃣ The so-called “community pressure” narrative ignores the massive pressure on the prosecution and jury.
    The system faced pressure from:
    • media
    • activists
    • politicians
    • public outrage
    • a community terrified of being accused of covering up abuse

    When there’s a demand for a conviction — ANY conviction — fairness goes out the window.
    People pretend pressure only ran in one direction. It didn’t.

    8️⃣ Innocent people don’t rush to plea deals. Guilty people do.
    He refused a plea at first — which is what innocent people statistically do.
    Guilty defendants take pleas to avoid risk.
    Innocent people believe the truth will protect them — and get blindsided when it doesn’t.

    9️⃣ The “lighter sentence” offer was a setup.
    He was told: plead guilty and get leniency.
    Then after agreeing, they hammered him with over 100 years anyway.
    That kind of bait-and-switch only happens when prosecutors KNOW their case is weak and want to force a confession.

    🔟 This case did NOT meet the standard for a life sentence.
    A sentence this extreme is usually reserved for cases with:
    • forensics
    • witnesses
    • confessions
    • recordings
    • repeated verified incidents

    This had NONE of that.
    Yet they handed down one of the harshest sentences imaginable — built entirely on one person’s unverified story.

    1️⃣1️⃣ No Beis Din — no halachic conviction.
    Halachically, nothing here meets the threshold.
    Zero witnesses.
    Zero physical evidence.
    Zero verified facts.
    Zero cross-examination in a halachic setting.
    People acting like “public opinion = halacha” are simply ignorant.

    1️⃣2️⃣ And this brings us to Pidyon Shevuyim.
    Pidyon Shevuyim applies to ANY Jew who was not judged by a Beis Din — whether you like him or not.
    You do NOT get to rewrite halacha based on gossip, emotion, or social pressure.

    Supporting Pidyon Shevuyim in a case that has no halachic conviction, no objective evidence, and huge legal red flags is not “supporting evil.”
    It is supporting due process and Jewish law.

    Attacking people who follow halacha isn’t righteousness.
    It’s blind ignorance mixed with arrogance.
