Williamsburg - Posters asking for cash for accused child molester angering victim’s family

Yiddish signs posted in Williamsburg asking for contributionst for accused child molester Nechemya Weberman.

Posters promoting an upcoming fund-raiser for a rabbi charged with sexually abusing a teenage girl blanketed Jewish shopping strips in Williamsburg Monday - sparking a campaign protesting the charity bash.

Signs supporting Nechemya Weberman, 53, - written in Hebrew and Yiddish mix - promote a Wednesday gathering at the Continental Caterers dining hall at 75 Rutledge Street.

Cops busted Weberman in February 2011 after a 16-year-old girl reported he was her therapist and had forced her during counseling session to perform oral sex and other lewd acts starting when she was 12-years-old.

“It is very painful,” said the victim’s mother about the street ads up on poles on Bedford and Lee Avenues. “The community has taken his side.”

At least two styles of posters were spotted. The more cartoonish set shows a missile falling onto a crowd of Orthodox Jewish men announcing a danger hitting the neighborhood.

The ads explain Weberman’s innocence by bashing the victim’s story and questioning why she decided talk to the police.

It is against Jewish law to report a Jew to secular authorities without rabbinical oversight.

Brooklyn District Attorney Charles Hynes has worked closely with religious leaders allowing rabbis to okay which victims come forward. But backlash to Hynes’ rabbinical relationships is growing as more rabbis are arrested for molesting kids.

“Don’t cover up what happened to children in this community. This has been happening for too many years,” said Hershy Deutsch, founder of the Kings County Safety Patrol, a civilian patrol group in the Jewish section of Williamsburg organizing a protest for Wednesday’s fund-raiser.

“I want a lot of people out there for the family to show people that giving money to this perpetrator is wrong,” Deutsch said.

Weberman’s lawyer George Farkas defended the call for cash insisting Weberman is an innocent man whose reputation is forever ruined.

“He is an accused molester. The damage is done,” said Farkas who is aiming to take the case to trial instead of brokering a deal with prosecutors. “There are many supporters who believe of his innocence.”

  2. Why would someone accuse someone without a reason? Could the young woman be mentally ill? The reality is, you can't know what truly happened and an investigation needs to be done. If it is false, it is a Hilchul Hashem, if it is true, he should be stoned to death.

  3. Um, if he is innocent he would not have counseled girls. There is nothing innocent about a heimishe yid not keeping Hilchos Yichud. Get that through your heads for once and for all.

  5. You can't have the cake and eat it.
    You want to allow secular authority and keep religious Yichud laws?
    The reason for her claims are known since he had her sue a boyfriend for molestation and she regretted that situation and decided to turn the table on him.

  7. why do they have that mindset that its better to cover up abuse than the expose the abusers and help the victim. if the orthodox community wants to avoid shame then why dont they stop abusing children. if they act like criminals the kids should speak up and have the abusers treated like criminals. its a huge sin to hide an abuser or let people get away with crimes against kids. they need a wakeup call that its not okay to hurt kids, it is a crime,theres too many abusers in this community and im sure many kids who aren't speaking up either.

  8. Well, #1 this girl is know to be hanging out with other men for the longest, she slept many many nights together with one guy ( which anybody in the area will know exactly who that is, i just dont feel like writing his name here ), so why beleive a girl who is known for doing wrong things ???

    #2, i know personly this mr Weberman he is from the best ppl in our area, he is such a beloved person, this person would never ever do these kind of things, in fact he tried to help this young girl to get rid of this bad lifestyle, its just that her freind didnt like the fact that he will lose his girl freind so he turned her on to accuse mr Weberman, and of corse the media ( and readers ) like when somebody gets caught with these kinde things so why not blow up the story ??? you ppl should realy do some inside research befor commenting, the info of this article was provided from some low lives who feel left out of the comunity and try to blame thier problems on everybody so they try to sell thier lies to the media ( and somehow it works for them :) ), i hope this will end very soon for the good ..... my best wishes to mr Weberman and his family !!!!!

  9. Don’t cover up what happened to children in this community. This has been happening for too many years,” said Hershy Deutsch, founder of the Kings County Safety Patrol, a civilian patrol group in the Jewish section of Williamsburg organizing a protest for Wednesday’s fund-raiser. Hershy Deutsch, also known as Burri Deutsch, used to own a hang out where all the girls came to meet their boys. Many a fight has started there. He now claims he was ousted by DEP and health dept. No one knows about it. Deutsch has been having relationship with this girl, he claims is a victim for years, and while she was a minor. Hello, are you all fooled??? Are you all buying this?? Deutsch and Company have been on loudspeaker for more to come forward against Weberman and no one has.. Because there isnt any. This girl aint a victim.. Come on Check it Out>>>>. Also leave the DA out of this, as well as Hasids, only the family..and these groups fighting over the girl... Deutsch has his personal fight with the community and therfore with Weberman. Aint a safety patrol that is needed here. Especially not someone that hates this community as he does. We are OK with our present Shomrim...

  10. The girl who this happened to is a close friend of my daughter they have been in school together for two years, my daughter just told me about this horrific ordeal her friend has gone through, and now there are some in the community sending yet one more horrific message by raising money for the accused, how can we continue to inspire our children???. This "man" left the community the day he became an abuser, he has admitted guilt and has offered a ple bargain and they are raising money for that????? He is not a member of the community he stepped out of the community separating himself from his people once he acted like an animal. This utterly disgust me and should anyone no matter raise or creed.

    1. The only problem with your story is the fact that this particular girl has said many times that the reason for her hanging out with the wrong croud was because she didn't have even one "single" girlfriend.
      I would never take anything from such parents, the guilt feeling of having your child go off on the wrong path will make you blame or accuse anyone but themselves.

  11. THis is a witchhunt based on anti-semitism and is close to the blood libel. These are the kinds of allegations that led to the pogroms in Russia. The media is showing its true anti-Semitic colors by fabricating stories against Rabbis who look after children and protect them.

  12. "Hershey deutch said".. What a joke, this young bowner of Old Willi Cafe is the current boyfriend of this accuser, unfortunately the accuser and her mother have very limited means of credibility, but when you quote her friend who's hanging out with her is just bringing me to giggle..
