Monticello, NY – Judge Frank LaBuda recently invited the Sun Ranch bungalow colony in Monticello to bring campers to view a day of the court proceedings, which included a full court calendar with several felony cases.
The girls, all of whom reside in Brooklyn, stayed for more than five hours. “We were impressed,” said Gitty Walter, head counselor, noting that it was a first-time experience for the girls, and informative “in a creepy sort of way.”
LaBuda said he regularly invites the high school kids to learn about court proceedings in a real-life setting.
We have to teach children when they are young that you have to follow the laws.
Great idea from the Judge & headcounsler.
May others do the same & may we all bring up our children the right way.
now this is news
the court is “not” a place for orthodox jewish people to go!!!
it is in all jewish books the klipas and teima that is courthouse of the goyim
should have taken the boys- perhaps a few would learn that life is not all about fun and good times-
it was not so importent for the innocent girls to be there. They should have bring the buchirem what are going eventualy be in busines to see that the end of a thief is behind bars.
I HAVE TO ADMIT I AM IMPRESSED !!!!
WHERE ARE THE RABBONIM IS THIS WHAT WE WANT CHAS VESHOLEM OUR YIDDISHA TECHTER SHOULD GET THE WRONG IDEA DO WE REALLY WANT THEM TO CONSIDER GOING TO COLLEGE AND BECOMING A JUDGE IS THAT OUR CHINUCH EVERY YID SHOULD REALLY BR CONCERNED WHERE OUR CHINUCH IS GOING
well, if you would have taken the boys there would be some crazy guy yelling “BITUL TORAH”

no, it is not a place for bochrim to be. although it is great that they took the girls there, bochrim could be exposed to “reiyos asiros”. i can’t imagine what filter ed’s problem is with taking girls to the courthouse and teach them about the system. i have spent several days in court and i found it to be very educating.
look in the 1st rashi in this weeks parsha (shoftim) where he writes against such things!!!
wow
I disagree with pupa rov of K.J. It WAS important for the young women to have this experience. It is part of life.
oops sorry its rashi inthe 1st pasuk in mishpotim
Wow amazing. Satmar girls posing with the Judge
My daughter was part of the day camp and she had a great experience, The Judge was very nice to them and told the girls they can go to a certain kosher bakery in Monticelo and get cookies on his account
I enjoy court proceedings. I used to go alot to the downtown courthouse with my wife in shunu rishona. It was always an informative and interesting outting.
It is also a hot spot on Chol Hamoed, all seats are usually full of yiden, you can see heimisha girls running all over the court building.
“Justice, Justice shall thou pursue.” Learning about justice systems is a terrific idea.
Pupa Ruv SHLIT”A of KJ: The Buchirem [or anyone else, for that matter] should open up a Sefer Koheles and read the Possuk where it says… …Sof Ganev l…! Also, reading the newspapers, [the Kosher ones, obviously1] about all the convictions and sentencing!!!
I know the great person who arranged this its the brother of the bakery in Monticello the great Person Leiby Walter every body can learn from him
The Judge was very nice to them and told the girls they can go to a certain kosher bakery in Monticelo and get cookies on his account”
AND WHAT IS THE ADDRESS OF THE BAKERY? I WILL TAKE MY CLASS THERE TOMORROW.
