The Journal News is reporting (shorturl.at/lwRSU) that Yoel Oberlander was arraigned Tuesday by County Court Judge Larry Schwartz in New City after being held in Federal custody in New Jersey on new charges that he molested a 15 year old boy on June 3.

Obelander’s attorney Daniel Bertolino says his client will vigorously fight the charges until the day he is exonerated.

In July 2017 Oberlander was sentenced to 13 months in prison after touching a woman inappropriately several times during the course of May 29, 2016 El Al flight from Ben Gurion International Airport to Newark Liberty International Airport.

Oberlander was convicted in 2002 in New York for sexually assaulting an 11-year-old girl. In 2012, he was charged with trespassing at an upstate New York Jewish camp.

Oberlander is listed as Level 2 on the New York state Sex Offender Registry.

as long as his payes are flying, and his tallis is over his head, and he shokels a lot – that’s what counts for these scumbags.
other scumbags can put people to shame, but as long as…….

I call this evil – not sick. Remember his face and name. He’ll be on the streets again. VIN deserves a great deal a credit to inform the public of this danger, no matter how unsavory.

This is one of those things where a sickness drives the afflicted person to commit crimes and victimize people. The fact is that the behavior is evil, and the drive to do it is disease. No one says that getting help is not needed. But that alone will not prevent a victim from being affected. And the public deserves to be kept safe. It has zero to do with being frum, Jewish, or any other identity descriptor. It’s just that our community has suffered from the protection of these monsters by supposedly well meaning people.

I strongly disagree with the system that applies numbers of months or even years to pass sentences (though I doubt they can create an alternative). What is really needed is a way to assess the degree of risk, and to enable release when the risk goes down to zero. Then someone who committed what might be labeled as a minor crime could be held long enough to ascertain that he is safe to roam the streets, potentially longer than the sentence imposed by numbers. The history reported here suggests the risk was never low enough to be safe to be among us.

It’s society to blame. Question one is was the woman on the plane dressed tzniosdik. Some women with shorter skirts are looking for trouble. Second the molesting of young boys is due to societies legalization of toeiva marriage. When you have modern orthodox yeshivoth marching in Israeli parade along with toeiva contingent; this is the result.

Finally,some clarity.Making excuses for these behaimas is just revolting. There’s a difference between real insanity and having perverted drives and acting on them. That’s especially so when it involves another unwilling human being and even more so a child.Personally, I’d like to see him put down like me a rabid dog.

Pedophiles, regardless of their religious affiliation, are sick. Their protectors and their enablers, regardless of their religious affiliation, are purely and truly evil.

Pedophiles should be locked away in hospitals until a cure for them is found. Their fate of theof protectors and enablers should be up to the victims. I volunteer to hold down the ‘mechanchim’ and ‘askonim’ while the victims have at them.
