News from the Mea Shearim Mother
B"H
For some time, we have hardly heard any news from the Toldot Aharon mother being accused of child abuse. Now she is back in the news.
The prosecution is claiming that the mother not only starved her three - year old son half to death but, additionally, abused two of her other children. One further victim was her two - year - old son and her six - year - old daughter.
The mother seems to be really fed up listening to all those accusations and claimed that no other woman in this country is going through what is suffering from. Two and a half days, she didn't receive any food while she was questioned. "The police put chains around my legs and all this only because I am a haredi woman. It was like being with the Inquisition".
The judge still hasn't decided if the mother can spend her house arrest in her own home together with her children or if, once again, she has to move out and go somewhere else.

Chains on her legs? No food for two days? I'm sorry, but this just sounds a bit exaggerated. Makes me think she may indeed have some issues to work through. The idea of "religious persecution" should be dropped. In most countries she would not be given the consideration of house arrest in a child abuse case and the protesters would all be sitting in jail. Only in Israel...

ReplyDeleteI think that the police has been taking a lot into consideration after the riots of the Edah HaCharedit.
