Former chief rabbi Bakshi-Doron fined for corruption

The former chief rabbi Eliyahu Bakshi-Doron's the latest prominent Haredi rabbinical figure to face a conviction for corruption:
The Jerusalem District Court on Thursday sentenced former Chief Sephardi Rabbi Eliyahu Bakshi-Doron to 12 months' probation in wake of his recent corruption conviction. The State Attorney's Office and Bakshi-Doron's attorneys had agreed on the sentence as part of a plea bargain. The rabbi was also ordered to pay a 250,000 shekel ($69,000) fine.

Judge Zvi Segal noted in his ruling that "in light of the bargain, the defendant's medical condition, his advanced age and the assumption that he poses no danger to the public and will not commit additional offenses, I did not see fit to impose mandatory jail time."

In May, Bakshi-Doron was convicted of charges including fraudulently receiving benefits, issuing fake rabbinical ordination certificates, and breach of trust.
Well if jail time would do some good, then he should at least be under house arrest. Another example of a Haredi rabbi committing a bad deed for the sake of money, and who knows what he was actually going to do with it. Guess that's what socialism can lead to.

About me

  • I'm Avi Green
  • From Jerusalem, Israel
  • I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.
