    SEATLLEPI.com (http://bit.ly/16nbr9Z) is reporting that Rabbi Yaakov Murray, was arrested on May 3 and released after posting a $100,000 bond.

    According to investigators, all three children reported similar stories of Murray groping them after seating them on his lap while behind his desk in front of the class.

    Investigators said Murray is not an ordained rabbi, but is referred to as such by his students out of “respect.”

    Murray faces up to 25 years in prison if convicted.

    These sociopathic monsters must be removed from society, and sent to prison for life. There is no cure for these pedophiles; they will reoffend, once released.l The frum community should not be silent about these sickos, and should immediately report them to local law enforcement. Sweeping such matters under the rug, as was the case in the past, only perpetuates such crimes.

    A male teacher for female students at an orthodox school?? What kind of School is that?

    @2. The gender of the teacher is irrelevant. And aside from that many orthodox day schools have teachers and students of the opposite gender. You should get out of Brooklyn for a minute.

    There should only be females in school environment , as males have been repeatedly shown to be molesters of both boys and girls, women are only 1 in 1000 molesting either boys or girls.
