    Osvaldo Romero, 22, was arraigned on a first-degree assault charge in Woodbury Town Court and sent to Orange County Jail in lieu of $50,000 bail.  
    Romero, who drives for a Monroe-area car service company, had picked up the girl about 7:15 p.m. and was driving a short distance to her home when he stopped in a deserted, unlit area and assaulted her, state police investigators said. 

    The driver and victim “had a previous relationship,” but hadn’t seen each other since May, investigators said. They didn’t identify the cab company and declined to specify where in Woodbury the attack allegedly took place.

    He probably meant after 11pm if you are on a public road or highway.

    I am sorry that after all of your years in yeshiva learning sophisticated toyres you still can’t think for yourself.

    The Laws of Yichud should be studied by all, in our schools & out.
    there are situations forbidden with Yidden & with non-Yidden

    There is really very little known about this case, certainly not enough to validate the lectures/comments posted here so far.

    its a very sad story. but we gotta learn from it one thing. you shouldn’t let your family member to use Goiyisha car service! its not the first time that people are getting connections with them. spacilly young girls. i think its time that Kiryas Yoel should came out with a Iser.

    still girls should not be going in car services alone at night. Besides Yichud it is terribly dangerous. They should pair up and at least have a cell phone on therm.

    The driver from the taxi is definatly NOT from a “m’sheluni” car service as you have seen his name is not “m’sheluni” (Osvaldo Romero), so it bring’s out again one of the biggest benefit’s of using our one & ONLY himeshe car service “LIBERMANS”, even i’ts sometime’s a LITTLE more expensive.
