My roomate and I used to listen to him scream and yell about law suits and about how "these lawsuits are putting us in the poor house" at the time I only heard one side of the conversation. Now I hear the other side - UGH! (we also had to pay the rent in cash absolutely no checks nor were receipts - no paper trail- its probably in an offshore bank account)<BR/>The sad thing here is that probably the defense will claim the statute of limitations has run and therefore suit can not be brought. (Unless the plaintiffs can prove that they were insane bec of the abuse and could not bring suit -hard to prove- the SOL is tolled OR the abuse has been continuous over the past thirty years and new victims have the courage to come foward and testify - then civil and criminal action can be brought against all those listed in the complaint.) But of course its Flatbush and there are no child molesters in Flatbush so there are no victims -sigh!Lucyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04229892212442832458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3564064.post-1148077018487420862006-05-19T18:16:00.000-04:002006-05-19T18:16:00.000-04:00Mikey, in my experience it is the rabbis' kids who...Mikey, in my experience it is the rabbis' kids who are always the most messed up. I've seen it over and over. Many turn out OK, but those on the real screwed-up end of the bell-curve are rabbis' kids.karlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13511491414073382506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3564064.post-1148069108260646732006-05-19T16:05:00.000-04:002006-05-19T16:05:00.000-04:00I once had a rabbi who slapped me in the face - he...I once had a rabbi who slapped me in the face - he was a real abusive jerk. I heared a few months ago that his married daughter ran off with a Puerto Rican guy - she must have suffered the same abuse her father dished out to his students.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3564064.post-1148010175213121322006-05-18T23:42:00.000-04:002006-05-18T23:42:00.000-04:00Yich!
