JERUSALEM (VINnews) — A 14-year-old eighth grade youth in a chareidi town in central Israel has been arrested after a shocking series of assaults on young girls aged 7-8 in his neighborhood. The arrest was made after parents complained that their daughter had been molested by the youth. Police received other complaints this week and realized that the youth was a serial offender.

The boy has admitted six assaults on girls but police suspect that the number is much higher. Some of the cases occurred in cellars or behind buildings and one of the attacks occurred in a stairwell.
During the past week police gathered evidence from surveillance cameras. After Whatsapp images of the youth were sent to various groups, the youth was identified and arrested.

The clip shows the suspect standing in the middle of the road. Noting a young girl walking he followed her and began talking to her until he succeeded in dragging her to a nearby building where he allegedly molested her.
One of those involved in the case told Chareidim 10 that a local rabbi had sent parents to place an add in the local newspaper instead of going to police.
“This boy was a ticking bomb. Police agreed to place pictures in Whatsapp groups since they feared he would harm other girls. Yet instead of sending the parents to police the rabbi tells them to place an ad?”, the person fumed.
“The police acted effectively, working around the clock until they caught him.”
report offenders asap to the police. not doing so, only emboldens them.
Our outrage is misplaced. He is a 14 year old, basically child and might be having issues with his becoming mature in that sense. I don’t defend him and he must be stopped at all costs, what he did is disgusting. However, give him a chance for a normal life and get him the desperate help he needs but keep a very very close eye on him
This teen is deeply mentally ill. He probably comes from a dysfunctional family where he is being abused. He needs to be placed in a therapeutic institution for disturbed teens and undergo years of therapy in a locked environment. Hopefully he is not beyond help .
Time for rabbis to step up to the plate, you gave a problem like this stop hiding it call the police. Who many lives need be destroyed because of your stupidity
Please make sure to arrest the one who (obviously!) taught him this disgusting behavior!!
What’s the rabbis name??? Y protect his name??
We all must strengthen ourselves, every action even done in private has a hashpaha on the world. like during the dor hamabul even the animals were doing wrong things.
Insane! Really terrible
I bet the boy was, at one time, molested himself.
Also, what did the “add” say? (BTW, it’s “ad”, short for ADvertisement)
He is not a boy. According to the Jewish law he is a men and should be charged as a pedophile.This rabbi is not ,, kosher ” to.
That so called Rabbi,needs to be arrested and charged with obstruction of justice, when found guilty ,give that idiot a long prison sentence
Wait a minute! Who said this boy actually did this? Maybe the girls made this up and he was just talking to one kindly! In fact, this boy is a tzadik1 Everyone is accusing him, without evidence. I mean, who cares that he admitted it- he might be making this up to get attention!
With all the sexual repression in these communities, what do you expect. Chances are he reached out to someone and they opened up a mesilas yeshorim, smacked him and told him he’s going to gehenom.
Huge Hypocrisy. Its ok for Rebbeim to molest young talmidim, but not ok for young talmidim to molest someone younger then them.
Yes, lock him up and throw away the key, put his name out there so that everyone knows and so that he can never be normal again. he should register as a sex offender. hes 14 and atthat age it is outrages and sickening for him to touch girls. dont give him therapy just lock him up forever and ever. i think even if this were a ten year old the process should be the same. 10/18/28 no difference he is already a serial rapist because he touched 10 yr old girls at 14.
