In 2012,
Emanuel Yegutkin
On December 3, 2012, Emanuel Yegutkin, the former principal of Elite High School, a yeshiva high school for Russian-American Jews, was found guilty of sexually abusing three underage brothers over the course of more than a decade.[2] The victims were not enrolled in Yegutkin's yeshiva.[2] Yegutkin was charged with a variety of sexual crimes, and was found guilty of all 75 counts.[2]
On February 7, 2013 Yegutkin was sentenced to 55 years in prison for his crimes.[3]
Nechemya Weberman
- Also see Child sexual abuse in New York City religious institutions#Nechemya Weberman, Satmar Hasidic leader
On December 10, 2012, Nechemya Weberman, unlicensed therapist,
During the trial, Satmar Rebbe Aaron Teitelbaum described Weberman’s accuser as a “zona,” or “whore”.[7] Brooklyn DA Charles Hynes criticized Teitelbaum, expressing his disappointment with Teitelbaum's remarks and calling them slanderous.[8]
Weberman was sentenced to 103 years in prison on January 22, 2013.[4] His term was subsequently reduced to the statutory maximum, which is 50 years.[9] With good behavior, Weberman could be out of prison in 43 years, in 2055.[9]
Update
The above material on three individual cases was excised from Sexual abuse cases in Brooklyn's Haredi community, as per this Talk section. As I've detailed in that section now, I've incorporated the above material which didn't overlap with existing material into another article, Child sexual abuse in New York City religious institutions, in the newly constituted Satmar Hasidic/Haredi community section. There was already a substantial section there for Nechemya Weberman, one of the three cases here. Hopefully the more case-oriented nature of that article will suit the material acceptably. Cheers.
