Haredi rabbi in Brooklyn stole money intended for disabled children
Here's one socialist Haredi scumbag who's presented a portrait of a 10 Commandments violator (via The Forward):
A New York City rabbi has been sentenced to prison for stealing $5 million in funding intended for disabled preschoolers.Man...that is absolutely disgusting, and complete disregard for the well being of youngsters with physical disabilities. Evidently, they were fleecing people for their money in a pure scam to rob the parents of money meant to fund their children's health needs. He should've gotten much more jail time than what he did, but the plea bargain must've been what led to a shorter term. A pure disgrace.
Queens District Attorney Richard A. Brown and state Comptroller Thomas P. DiNapoli announced Tuesday that Samuel Hiller will spend one to three years behind bars.
Hiller was assistant director of the now-defunct Island Child Development Center. It provided services to Orthodox Jewish communities in Far Rockaway, Queens, and Brooklyn's Williamsburg and Borough Park neighborhoods.
Restitution is part of Hiller's plea agreement.
Three co-defendants also pleaded guilty for their involvement in the thefts, which occurred between 2005 and 2012.
Prosecutors say they diverted money to relatives, to businesses and to cover personal expenses including a family wedding, home renovations and jewelry.
