NY - Following “much deliberation,” the
trustees of Congregation Emanu-El have decided to remove 49-year-old Rabbi
Alfredo Borodowski from his post as the executive director of the Skirball
Center of Adult Jewish Learning at Temple Emanu-El in Manhattan, LoHud.com
reports.
Rabbi Borodowski was arrested on June 19 and charged with
first-degree criminal impersonation for masquerading as a police officer and
making phony traffic stops while flashing a fake police badge.
“It is in the best interests of the Congregation to
terminate his employment as Executive Director of the Skirball Center for
Jewish Learning, a position which is so crucial to our religious mission,” said
Dr. Mark W. Weisstuch, the Congregation’s administrative vice president, in a
statement.
Thus far, three victims who were falsely pulled over by the
rabbi have reported their experiences to law enforcement.
Borodowski is still employed as the rabbi of Congregation
Sulam Yaakov in Larchmont, which has not yet commented on the charges.
