Prominent Rabbi Tried For Sexually Assaulting Minors

[ Edited ]

The trial of rabbi Moti Elon, indicted on two counts of sexual assault against two of his students, began on Wednesday at the Magistrate’s Court in Jerusalem. Alon's attorney, Yaakov Rubin, said in court that his client will admit to some of the charges, yet only to those that do not constitute a criminal offense. He also said the rabbi intends to deny any sexual offenses against his students. The rabbi also asked for the trial to be open to the public.

Elon, one of the most prominent rabbis in the religious Zionist community, is accused of assaulting one of his students and another youth. The alleged incidents took place in 2003 and 2005, when Elon headed Yeshivat Hakotel in Jerusalem's Old City.

Looks like Associated Press forgot to write and publicize a news story about this prominent Zionist Community Rabbi who molests children in Israel.

This guy will fit right into prison life. That is all that goes on in those places.  Maybe he will meet someone he likes. Good luck Rabbi!

Just keep the young boys away from him.

Meanwhile, Rabbi Aharon Lichtenstein, a leading figure in religious Zionist circles, and a member of Takana, a group that seeks to root out sexual exploitation by authority figures in the Orthodox community, said a relative of Elon's had threatened his life.

Lichtenstein told his students at Har Etzion Yeshiva in the Gush Etzion town of Alon Shvut, that the person "said he would hurt me in every way he could."

In Israel, it took 4 long years to get an indictment of this child molester.

So, what's your point?  In the catholic priest scandal, and the Penn State scandal how long did it take?

There's dirtbags in every walk of life and I hope they deal him their worst.  But methinks you're more interested in bashing Israel than the fact that a prominent rabbi is a hideous child molester that deserves everything he gets.

And this deserves a Thread with bold blue, real gutzy, did you start one about Penn State, could it be that you only deal with jewish matters? You should get another hobby besides hating jews.

This doesn't have anything to do with religion.  The fact that he was a rabbi and knew better just makes his crime more heinous.  Pedophiles are known to place themselves in parts of the community where they have access to children.

He needs to be treated no better or worse than any pedophile walking the streets today.

In all likelihood he will convert to catholicism and his actions will get him appointed bishop by Pope Ratzinger.

How true
There are sick minds in all walks of life
In all positions of authority
No one ever said that one religion had a lock on it

Doesn't take much to excite an atheist.    Are there any PROMINENT gays that molest kids?   Of course that wouldn't be news in the anti religious community.

Maybe he just needs counseling.
