Are police looking at Scheinerman as a suspect?
Scheinerman once tried to falsely possel the mikva at Rav Halberstam's shul, Ave N & E 33rd, because it's competition to his at Ave P & 24th. Scheinerman even duped R' Dovid Feinstein into signing, which R' Dovid was choizer as soon as he found out what a lying scoundrel Scheinerman is.
An assifa of almost 50 rabbonim in Boro Park-Flatbush was convened to condemn Scheinerman's dirty trick, which motzee shem ra on a women's mikva is considered the worst type of motzee shem ra as it causes turmoil in sholom bayis & beyond.
