Finally, after over 6 years, the Israeli court in charge of the case of Haredi child molestor Malka Leifer has made the decision she's fit for extraditing back Down Under:

After close to six years, Judge Chana Miriam Lomp of the Jerusalem District Court ruled on Tuesday that alleged sex offender Malka Leifer is mentally fit to to stand extradition back to Australia.

Leifer, who is wanted on 74 counts of sexual abuse and rape of minors, has claimed mental illness since extradition proceedings were initiated in 2014, but the court finally ruled that those claims were not valid.

Judge Lomp set an extradition hearing for July 16.

Leifer’s lawyers said they should the extradition court rule to extradite her they would appeal both the decision that she is fit for extradition and the decision to extradite her to the Supreme Court.

This is the only part that's angering - her lawyers, and the culprit's clan likely did about what you could expect of such insular dirt: raised tons of money for a defense counsel she doesn't deserve. If the court's smart, they'll rule to have her extradited immediately.

In her decision, Lomp noted that Leifer’s fitness to stand extradition and trial depended on her ability to understand the legal proceedings against her and to defend herself against the allegations.

The judge said that she was convinced Leifer did meet this standard by the conclusion of the panel of psychiatric experts who gave their professional opinion to the court in January this year that she was fit for extradition.

Lomp also rejected the frequent claims of Leifer’s lawyers that she had previously overturned the psychiatric opinions of previous psychiatric experts in a September 2019 decision, saying that she had simply determined that there were sufficient defects in their findings that required a new panel.

She said that the new psychiatric opinion from January was “comprehensive and thorough,” and that the psychiatrists who had examined Leifer on three occasions had been convinced by her responses to their questions that she was fit for extradition.

“The respondent did not faint, did not daydream, and was not apathetic even though she understood that those speaking to her were psychiatrists examining her on the basis of legal proceedings against her,” wrote Lomp.

This case alone has been one of the most embarrassing for Israel, and a prime example of somebody living under a "protected class" status abusing the systems to dodge the law. It has to be prevented from continuing that way. Leifer must serve as an example of what happens to offenders in the Haredi community when they commit abominations.
