No More Sweeping It Under the Carpet

By Gldmeier @gldmeier
There is a horrible story from Yerushalayim culminating right now in the arrest of a mashgiach of a yeshiva for abuse and molestation of his own children.
The most fascinating part of the story is that, as far as I can remember, for the first time such an incident is making the top headlines in the religious and even in the Haredi media.
Add to this the publicity of the recent case in Monroe that "ended" with an FBI raid.
In the past, such cases rarely made the frum news. When they did they were either relegated to a minor column with little information placed in a place hardly anyone would notice it, or they were attacks on the accusers for creating a chilul hashem in going to the police or about accusing falsely an innocent man.
Are the days of sweeping these things under the carpet really behind us?
no more sweeping it under the carpet
no more sweeping it under the carpet
no more sweeping it under the carpet
