TY - JOUR PY - 2008// TI - A single-case study of rabbinic sexual abuse in the Orthodox Jewish community JO - Journal of child sexual abuse A1 - Neustein, Amy A1 - Lesher, Michael SP - 270 EP - 289 VL - 17 IS - 3-4 N2 - This paper considers a case of sexual abuse allegedly perpetrated by a rabbi within an Orthodox Jewish community. The material is drawn from public records and interviews conducted with the family of the reported victim and others involved in the matter. Consideration is given to judicial procedures unique to the traditional Jewish community and how such procedures, while developed to foster justice within the Jewish community, at times may interfere with secular criminal procedures.
