Beit Shemesh Haredi man arrested for raping youngster next to synagogue
Authorities filed an indictment Thursday against a Beit Shemesh man suspected of sexually assaulting a young boy next door to a synagogue, and then paying him a small sum to ensure he did not divulge what had happened.Then he must be locked away in solitary for his heinous crime. IMHO, the mentality the Haredi extremists are pushing is exactly what's led to the acts they supposedly find objectionable, but are they going to do anything to repair the damage they caused? Don't bet on it.
Jerusalem district prosecutors charged 51-year old Avraham Eizenbach on two counts of performing indecent acts on a minor.
According to the indictment Eizenbach, who served as the warden (gabbai) of a Beit Shemesh synagogue, on two separate occasions pressured an 11-year old boy to follow him into a caravan next to the synagogue where the then proceeded to sexually assault him.
After the assaults, Eizenbach then paid the boy 20 shekels in exchange for his silence.
Last week police arrested Eizenbach, who has denied the charges against him. But prosecutors note that during interrogation, Eizenbach initially refused to cooperate with investigators and remained silent, only to admit to some of the charges later on as the investigation progressed.
