Are you a victim? Did Yeshivah College or Adass Yisroel girls’ school hush you up back then?

Victorian Police are appealing to anyone who may have information or indeed may have been victims of sexual abuse during the period between 1989 and 1993. They have also launched an investigation into sexual abuse at the Adass Yisroel girls’ school n Elsternwick whose principal Malka Leifer fled to Israel in 2008. David Kramer went back to the US where he was arrested and is currently serving a prison sentence for sexual assaults on children. Acting Detective Sergeant Scott Dywer has asked anyone with information to contact him at the Moorabin Sexual Offences Unit on 03 9556 6128

Based on reliable information I have, it is anticipated that arrest(s) will be conducted very soon. This is certainly a move I have been anticipating for many years and will welcome once it occurs. There are two fundamental reasons why I have decided to share my information publicly. Firstly, this is about justice and closure – both for myself and other victims. I intend to hold both the perpetrators and Yeshivah Centre to account, the latter for persuading victims to remain silent and not taking appropriate action subsequent to the crimes occurring. The most important people in this tragedy are the many victims that have been abused and betrayed by the perpetrators and Yeshivah Centre many times over. The victims need and deserve justice and closure. Further, it is also my hope that as I take a public stand on this matter, it may embolden other victims to lodge a complaint with the police. As I hold central leadership positions within the Jewish community, it is my hope that I may also help change the stigma associated with victims of such crimes and thereby further embolden other victims to seek the justice that they rightly deserve. I have been informed that there are many, many additional victims out there, some of whom I personally know. Some of these victims apparently have not shared their experiences even with their wives/families. While the perpetrators’ responsibilities are obvious, the negligence of Yeshivah Centre must be seriously addressed, both in terms of seeking justice for what did occur, and in terms of preventing such cases from reoccurring. Whether or not there was no mandatory reporting at the time of the crimes in question is irrelevant – despite recent statements by the Yeshivah Centre in trying to defend the indefensible.

Yeshivah College did not report complaints to police. David Kramer fled Australia in the 1990s

Rabbi Ze'ev Smason, who alerted police in Missouri after the boy's family told him something inappropriate had occurred, said: ''The Kramer case provides a great opportunity to trace the failure of segments of the Jewish community to their source. ''If only the problem had been addressed in Australia … the victim in St Louis and countless others would have been spared suffering,'' he wrote in 2008. Speaking from the US last night, Rabbi Smason said individuals had a religious, ethical and moral obligation to ensure a person who committed a crime could not do so again. ''If there were other victims, any religious authorities who did not step forward enabled him [Kramer] to commit such crimes,'' he said. ''To a degree, an individual who could prevent evil from happening is responsible when it occurs - that's a pretty heavy spiritual burden to carry.'' Kramer pleaded guilty to one count of sodomy of a child under 14 and one count of sexual misconduct. The Age understands Victoria Police hopes to extradite him when he is released, with the earliest parole date April next year.

Teacher molested kids for 20 years, while community turned blind eye

For almost 20 years, one man allegedly sexually abused dozens of children on Moshav Kommemiyut, an ultra-Orthodox community in the northern Negev. Yet no one ever complained - either to the police or to the welfare authorities. The police have since opened an investigation into the abuses, but the suspect is in the U.S. and refuses to return. Meanwhile, some say community leaders knew of the crimes but did nothing to stop them. At least one of the victims is suspected of having sexually abused younger children in turn. The main suspect, Shimshon Walzer, began his alleged career as an abuser 19 years ago, while serving as a teacher at a religious elementary school. Two years later, rumors of his abusive conduct led to him being fired as a teacher. Yet for some reason, he was allowed to retain an office at the school. Over the ensuing years, his conduct became ever more abusive, police say, and an entire generation of children became his sex slaves. According to the testimony they have collected, he abused his victims frequently and in broad daylight, in barns and chicken coops, in fields and even at the mikveh (ritual bath ).

Kevin Ricks accused of being a serial sexual predator

They didn’t know about his apparent library of homemade pornographic videos and explicit photographs that officials say capture his tequila-soaked sex acts with teenage boys he had handpicked. They didn’t know about the makeshift shrine boxes that police say contain mementos of the episodes, including sex toys, soiled tissues and hair trimmings. Even some of the possible victims didn’t know they were victims. A four-month Washington Post investigation of Ricks’ career as a teacher, tutor, foreign exchange host and camp counselor has revealed what appears to be a pattern of abuse that dates to at least 1978 and has left a trail of victims spanning the globe. But despite the abuse, Ricks moved from one teaching job to the next over nearly 30 years, navigating the nation’s public and private school systems undetected, evading traps designed to catch him. He spent the 1982-83 school year in Norfolk, teaching at Hampton Roads Academy. In some cases, school officials and foreign exchange companies knew of or suspected Ricks’ inappropriate behavior and simply let him go, leaving the next employer with no idea what was coming.

More victims coming forward with accounts of indecent sexual assault and battery

Two years ago, Michael Brecher came to prosecutors in Boston with a disturbing allegation: In the 1970s, he said, he had been molested by a rabbi who was teaching sixth grade at one of the region’s most prestigious Jewish day schools, the Maimonides School. One of Brecher’s classmates came forward at the same time. And last year, after reading news accounts of indecent sexual assault and battery charges filed against Stanley Z. Levitt, a third person said that he, too, was abused by Levitt. Now, court records show that Levitt might have tried to entice two more students into having intimate contact with him while they took showers in his Brighton home. One of those former students has told Boston police that Levitt took him and other students on a field trip to Montreal where Levitt directed the students in a ritual purification bath, or mikvah, while all of them were naked, an inappropriate practice, according to an official at a prominent Jewish theological seminary. Levitt has also faced allegations in Philadelphia, where he lived after leaving Maimonides.

Ex-Mass. rabbi charged again in child abuse

The Suffolk County district attorney says a rabbi who once taught at a Boston-area school faces another child assault charge. Authorities said Sunday that Stanley Z. Levitt was charged with indecent assault and battery on a child. The 64-year-old Levitt is expected to be arraigned Wednesday in Suffolk Superior Court. Levitt was arraigned last year on four counts of indecent assault and battery on a child. Prosecutors say he assaulted two boys about 11 years old who attended the Maimonides School in Brookline where he taught between 1974 and 1977. Prosecutors say the third person approached them after reading media accounts. Authorities say he also was a sixth grader at the school that employed Levitt in the mid-1970s.

For 5th Year, Child Sex Abuse Bill Dies in Legislature

Assemblywoman Margaret Markey, a Queens Democrat who wrote the legislation and has been its chief advocate, said that in one sense the vote on Wednesday represented progress. “Our bill has never even come to a vote before in the Senate,” she said. “So we feel this was an important step.” Since it was first introduced in the 2006-7 session, the Child Victims Act has been fervently opposed by the Catholic Church and several Orthodox Jewish groups, which saw potentially devastating financial implications in opening an opportunity for victims, regardless of age, to bring lawsuits for sexual abuse suffered in childhood. Last year, in an attempt to blunt complaints from the religious groups that they were being singled out, the bill was amended to make public institutions like schools equally liable.

Justice for Child Abuse Victims

We urge the New York State Legislature to rise above intense lobbying by the New York State Catholic Conference and Orthodox Jewish officials and pass the overdue Child Victims Act. Like a similar measure enacted in 2003 by California, it would create a one-time, one-year suspension of the statute of limitations for bringing civil lawsuits over the sexual abuse of children. Once that window closes, people alleging abuse would have until age 28 to bring a claim. Current law sets the limit at 23 in most circumstances.

Supporters of Lebovits wait for the verdict outside the Kings County criminal court

the trial took a shocking turn when Gregory asked Ashkenazi if he knew a particular Brooklyn boy. Ashkenazi, who speaks fractured English, sat uncomfortably on the witness stand and acknowledged that he did know the boy. “Isn’t it true,” the prosecutor continued, that Ashkenazi had once touched his knee to the boy’s private parts? Ashkenazi, flustered, denied that that was true. Then, Gregory named another boy and asked the witness if, “back in 1998, on multiple occasions, [he] sexually molested him when he was 13 years old?” Ashkenazi protested to the assistant district attorney, “I am a holy person!”

Rabbinic Leaders Silent On Child Sexual Abuse

Every attempt I made to enlist the aid of rabbinic leadership was met with reactions ranging from an unwillingness to deal with the problem, to indifference, to total denial of the existence of a problem — which I have since learned was in all cases completely disingenuous. The rabbis in fact knew about this problem all along and they acted to protect the pedophiles and intimidate the victims and their families, all the while maintaining a public silence. (by Ben Hirsch Special To The Jewish Week)

“To sin is a human business, to justify sins is a devilish business.”

Rabbi Baruch Lebovits is facing a long prison term after he was convicted of sexually assaulting a teenage boy. "Thank God, justice is served," the victim's father said in the packed courtroom as Lebovits family members wiped tears from their eyes. "This makes a statement to the Jewish community," said Beth Kaplan of the group Sacred Lives, one of several advocates who sat through the week-long trial. "There is denial. The majority of the Orthodox community doesn't believe this can happen. Here we see it can happen."

Rabbi Baruch Lebovits found guilty on eight counts of sexual abuse; hauled away in handcuffs.

http://www.ktla.com/news/landing/ktla-rabbi-molester,0,6181257.story

BROOKLYN -- A jury today convicted an orthodox rabbi of repeatedly molesting a 16-year-old classmate of his son.

The panel of 10 women and two men deliberated less than half a day before finding the rabbi, Baruch Lebovits, 58, guilty of eight counts of sexual abuse.

Lebovits was acquitted on two additional counts.

The victim, now 22, alleges Lebovits lured him into his car by offering to let him drive, then proceeded to unzip his fly and perform oral sex on him.

The incident occurred on eight separate occasions in 2004 and 2005, according to Kings County District Attorney Charles J. Hynes

The Yeshiva student said he knew Lebovits as a rabbi and prominent business man in the Borough Park community, where they both lived.

Lebovits is slated to be sentenced March 29.

He faces up to a 32-year prison term.

You can kiss convicted child molester, Boruch Mordechai Lebovits, goodbye.

Lebovits was convicted on eight counts of Criminal Sexual Act in the Third Degree. When he is sentenced on March 29, he will face up to four years in prison on each count. The victim knew Lebovits as a rabbi and prominent businessman in the Borough Park community, where they both lived. Lebovits is also charged in two other cases of sexual assaults on minors. Those cases are pending. The case was prosecuted by Miss Gregory, First Deputy Bureau Chief in the Sex Crimes Bureau. Rhonnie Jaus is Chief of the Sex Crimes Bureau.

grand jury charges Dr. Earl Bradley of Lewes with 471 counts of sexual crimes against 103 children.

After years of suspicions among parents and questions about his strange behavior from colleagues, Bradley was arrested after a 2-year-old girl told her mother that the doctor hurt her in December when he took her to a basement room of his office after an exam. The case has shocked the close-knit coastal community of Lewes and the central Delaware town of Milford, where Bradley closed an office in 2005 after police investigated him. Biden and Gov. Jack Markell have ordered reviews to determine whether doctors, hospitals, state agencies or law enforcement authorities failed to comply with a state law that requires all such entities to report to the medical licensing board in writing within 30 days if they believe a doctor is or "may be" guilty of unprofessional conduct. Biden said Monday that those investigations are aimed at determining "how this physician could lurk in our midst for as long as he did."

'Trust, but check,' our sages tell us.

Our first and foremost concern must always be for the victim. Societies today may be so focused on securing the rights and privileges of the accused that they neglect the suffering of those who are harmed in the first place. More than one community, having detected a sexual predator in its midst, has simply transferred the criminal to another, unsuspecting community so as to avoid a legal battle and all the negative publicity that comes along with it. Meanwhile, the victims are denied their right to justice and the fox is now transferred to a new hen-house, where he may continue his deviant behavior on new victims.

"Brooklyn Bundler" is at it again.

Rabbi Milton Balkany, 63, was charged with extortion, blackmail and making false statements as part of an elaborate scheme to shake down the hedge fund, prosecutors charged. They say Balkany told the hedge fund the U.S. Attorney's Office and the FBI were trying to get a jailbird he knew to give up information about illegal insider trades made by the financial firm. There were no insider trades. Balkany made up the story to trick fund managers into giving millions to the Bais Yaakov School in Borough Park, where he is the dean, and another school, Torah Vodaath, prosecutors said. Balkany said prosecutors are telling tales.

Wicked Man!

New Jersey lawyer representing several clients who claim they were abused by Mondrowitz, told the New York Jewish Week that he has uncovered evidence that Mondrowitz has continued his practice of treating young boys in Israel. Michael Lesher, an attorney and a writer specialising in sexual abuse cases, says a document obtained from Mondrowitz’s computer shows a 15-year-old boy was assessed by Mondrowitz in 2006. “We have always heard from the rabbis that, whatever has happened, in Israel, Mondrowitz has been kept away from children. Taking this at face value, it seems, that is not true.”

Child advocates still in a state of shock and disbelief over Mondrowitz ruling

Yitzhak Kadman, president of the Israeli National Council for the Child, the oldest and largest children’s rights advocacy group in Israel, told The Jewish Week that “We are disappointed with the decision. We believe that it is sending [the] wrong message to people who are accused of such serious crimes [as the] sexual abuse of children.” Kadman added, “We believe that regardless of the question that Israel is and should be a shelter for every Jew in the world, the Law of Return [did not intend for] Israel to become a shelter for people who are pedophiles who are running from the court system in other countries.”

Israel’s Supreme Court ruled Mondrowitz will not be extradited to stand trial in America.

“At the very least, the authorities in Israel should be pursuing criminal charges against Mondrowitz for recent crimes that both they and the U.S. authorities have clear and convincing evidence of,” said SFJ president Ben Hirsch. Michael Lesher, a Passaic, N. J., attorney who represents six American Jews who claim Mondrowitz abused them as children, said, “We know now, which we didn’t before, just what kind of denial we are facing. “We feel outrage, we feel bitterness and we feel rising anger that bringing Mondrowitz to justice is being resisted.”

At the mikveh, Weiss “touched his penis to the boy’s buttocks,” states the indictment.

“He got a slap on the hand. Across the country people are copping pleas so they don’t end up on sex offender registries,” said Vicki Polin, founder and chief executive officer of The Awareness Center, which advocates on behalf of victims of rabbinic sexual abuse. “Our courts seem to care more about white-collar crime than they do about our own children,” she said. “If he’s not on a sex offender registry, it means he still can teach. There are so many cases just like this and then they just re-offend.”

"rabbi" Yaakov Weiss admitted he had "inappropriate physical contact" with two naked boys.

Yaakov Weiss, founder of the Chabad of Colonie and the Chabad Hebrew School, pleaded guilty to child endangerment during an appearance in front of Albany County Judge Stephen Herrick. He faces up to 60 days in jail and three years probation as part of a plea bargain reached with the district attorney's office. His sentencing his schedule for March 1. Under questioning by the judge, Weiss admitted he had the inappropriate contact with the boy. He also told the court he told one of the boys to lie about the contact if asked by parents or police. In both cases, the indictment alleged that Weiss had sexual contact "consisting of placing his penis in contact with said child's buttocks." The incidents allegedly took place inside a pool, called a mikveh, used by some Jews for ritual purification, according to his attorney. (THE PUNISHMENT DOES NOT FIT THE CRIME)

Steve Lipman's eye-openening article in The Jewish Week

"Twice within the past few years, several pulpit rabbis in Passaic, Rabbi Eisenman among them, announced in shul when men accused of being sexual molesters had moved into the community. One, Stefan Colmer, left Passaic soon thereafter, likely because of the public exposure, Passaic residents say, and is now in jail having been convicted of eight counts of criminal sexual act in the second degree; the other, Mitchell Levinton, pleaded guilty to child endangerment last month and faces a five-year prison term."

Orthodox Jewish community in Lakewood deals with sex abuse (by continuing to claim ignorance and telling more lies)

By ZACH PATBERG
STAFF WRITER

At some point, amid battling a drug addiction and childhood memories of molestation, Shua Finkelstein wrote a letter. Discovered on his computer after he died Feb. 28 from an overdose of pain killers, the letter admonished his Orthodox Jewish community...

"It is your duty as a Jew, as a human to find these people in our community and no longer let them live among us!!!" it read. On April 14, a few weeks after the letter became public online, the Finkelsteins' house was gutted by a fire while they were out of town for Passover. A police report cited arson as the likely cause. Authorities say they are still investigating.

Sexual Abuse Facts

Rape is not motivated by lust or sexual desire. Rape is an expression of power or anger.
The effects of date rape drugs are enhanced by alcohol which can also impair your judgment and ability to respond.
Rape can happen in the context of marriage or a committed relationship.
Every 41 seconds a woman is raped in the United States.
50 % of the victims are 12-24 years of age.
60-80 % of women who are raped know their attackers.
57 % of rapes occur on a date and 60 % of sexual assaults occur in homes.
One in 10 men is raped in his lifetime.

If you were raped:

Seek help immediately
Remember, it is not your fault
Do not wash, change, shower or douche before going to the hospital

Protect Yourself Against Rape:

Watch your drink:

Keep an eye on your drink at all times
Only take drinks from a bartender or waitress

Watch out for each other:

Never leave a friend who is drunk alone
Communicate before a party that you will look out for each other's safety

If you start to feel sick or strange, tell a friend immediately! Date rape drugs can take effect in as little as 15 minutes. Trust your instincts! If you feel something is wrong, it probably is. Don't be afraid to make a scene and stand up for yourself. This could be the difference between life and death.

If you have any questions about sexual assault or need to talk about what has happened to you or a friend, call our 24-hour crisis line at (812) 336-0846.

Child Sexual Abuse ~ Disclosures

Among victims of sexual abuse, the inability to trust is pronounced, which also contributes to secrecy and non-disclosure.
Source: Courtois & Watts, 1982.

Children often fail to report because of the fear that disclosure will bring consequences even worse than being victimized again. The victim may fear consequences from the family, feel guilty for consequences to the perpetrator, and may fear subsequent retaliatory actions from the perpetrator.
Sources: Berlinger & Barbieri, 1984; Groth, 1979; Swanson & Biaggio, 1985.

Victims may be embarrassed or reluctant to answer questions about the sexual activity.
Source: Berlinger & Barbieri, 1984.

Victims may also have a feeling that "something is wrong with me," and that the abuse is their fault.
Sources: Johnson, 1987; Tsai & Wagner, l978.

In addition to "sexual guilt," there are several other types of guilt associated with the abuse, which include feeling different from peers, harboring vengeful and angry feelings toward both parents, feeling responsible for the abuse, feeling guilty about reporting the abuse, and bringing disloyalty and disruption to the family . Any of these feelings of guilt could outweigh the decision of the victim to report, the result of which is the secret may remain intact and undisclosed.
Source: Courtois & Watts, 1982; Tsai & Wagner, l978.

A child's initial denial of sexual abuse should not be the sole basis of reassurance that abuse did not occur. Virtually all investigative protocols are designed to respond to only those children who have disclosed. Policies and procedures that are geared only to those children who have disclosed fail to recognize the needs of the majority of victims.
Source: Sorensen & Snow, 1991.

Study of 630 cases of alleged sexual abuse of children from 1985 through 1989: Using a subset of 116 confirmed cases, findings indicated that 79 percent of the children of the study initially denied abuse or were tentative in disclosing. Of those who did disclose, approximately three-quarters disclosed accidentally. Additionally, of those who did disclose, 22 percent eventually recanted their statements.
Source: Sorensen & Snow, 1991.

Young victims may not recognize their victimization as sexual abuse.
Source: Gilbert, l988.

There is the clinical assumption that children who feel compelled to keep sexual abuse a secret suffer greater psychic distress than victims who disclose the secret and receive assistance and support.
Source: Finkelhor & Browne, 1986.

Early identification of sexual abuse victims appears to be crucial to the reduction of suffering of abused youth and to the establishment of support systems for assistance in pursuing appropriate psychological development and healthier adult functioning . As long as disclosure continues to be a problem for young victims, then fear, suffering, and psychological distress will, like the secret, remain with the victim.
Sources: Bagley, 1992; Bagley, 1991; Finkelhor et al. 1990; Whitlock & Gillman, 1989.>
