Dead Guy Found in Ponovitz in Bnei Brak

The body of a 70-year-old man was found in a utility room in Ponevezh Yeshiva during the night. Police and Hatzolah were summoned to the scene. The person was pronounced dead at the scene.

According to the preliminary information available, the body is that of a homeless man who was seen in the yeshiva often, and he was found in a utility room in ‘Batei Pik’ in the yeshiva.

It appears the man was dead for a number of days and the body was just discovered during the night between motzei Shabbos and Sunday when one of the bochrim opened the door to the utility room. Police are investigating. ZAKA tended to the niftar and is working with police forensic technicians.

ZAKA member Avremi Katz told Kikar Shabbos News that “We are dealing with an older man who was found dead in the utility room near the dormitory when a bochur happened to open the door and he found the horrific scene and they called ZAKA Tel Aviv.

Michael & Yarin Nadel, Father and Son Queens Moving Company Arrested For Fraud

Pay up — or you’ll never see your chaise lounge again!

A Queens father and son were busted for allegedly using their interstate moving companies to extort customers — demanding victims pay thousands if they wanted their belongings returned, federal prosecutors announced Tuesday.

Michael Nadel, 65, and son Yarin “Joe” Nadel, 35, are accused of netting $100,000 from dozens of customers who they forced into paying bogus extra fees to get their stuff back between February 2018 and July 2019.

The Fresh Meadows duo allegedly defrauded customers by giving quotes they had “no intention of honoring.” Once the possessions were loaded onto their trucks, the men then told their marks “additional fees were due,” prosecutors claim.

In some cases, the men and employees of their “State to State” moving companies threatened to sell and auction customer’s belongings if they didn’t cough up the extra cash, prosecutors charge.

Accused sex abuser Malka Leifer refuses to appear before key psychiatric panel

Malka Leifer’s attorneys informed the Jerusalem District Court on Tuesday that their client would not appear before the court-ordered psychiatric panel to determine whether she is feigning mental illness in order to avoid extradition to Australia, where she faces 74 charges of sexual assault.

In a letter to the court, Tal Gabay and Yehuda Fried said they could not allow their client to cooperate with a panel, which they had opposed from the start.

Last month, Jerusalem District Court Judge Chana Lomp ruled that the evidence against Leifer was inconclusive and therefore a board of psychiatric experts would be appointed to determine whether the former principal of Adass Israel ultra-Orthodox girls’ school in Melbourne has been faking mental incompetence to avoid being sent back to Australia for a sex abuse trial.

Both the prosecution and defense opposed the appointment of a new panel, with both arguing that sufficient evidence had been submitted to reach a verdict. The state has relied on the legal opinions of three district psychiatrists who determined that Leifer is mentally fit to face justice. 

The pathetic push to deny Trump credit for getting Baghdadi

The mockery and the spin from President Trump’s political opponents poured in as soon as he made his announcement on Sunday about US forces killing ISIS chief Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.

The president didn’t restrain his urge to take credit for the triumph or hold back on describing the events in pure Trumpspeak. He spoke of Baghdadi “whimpering” and “dying like a dog.” While giving the proper credit to the heroism of the operators who put an end to the career of a murderer and rapist who was one of the planet’s true villains, Trump did the presidential equivalent of an NFL touchdown dance.

Yet as far as his opponents in the media were concerned, the president’s behavior was not only unseemly but also dishonest, since they think he deserves no credit for a moment that put a bow on the successful war the United States has been waging against ISIS on his watch.

That was the keynote of coverage of the Baghdadi operation in the New York Times, CNN and most other liberal outlets. Instead of allowing Trump to bask in the glory of this victory, reporters and pundits widely bashed the president for supposedly being clueless about the operation and the intelligence establishment, for pursuing policies that made the fight against ISIS harder and for not giving top Democrats a heads up about the impending attack.

Dr Michael Schloss Killed When His Plane Crashed in New Jersey

 

The pilot killed when his prop plane crashed into a quiet New Jersey neighborhood has been identified as a Manhattan cardiologist with a long-running passion for flying, The Post has learned.

Dr. Michael Schloss, 74, was flying from Leesburg Executive Airport in Virginia to Linden Airport in New Jersey when his plane plummeted into a home in the Woodbridge Township community of Colonia around 11 a.m. Tuesday, setting that home and two neighboring houses on fire.

Authorities said no one was killed or injured on the ground.

Schloss was an experienced licensed commercial pilot, records show.

He operated a business called Warbird Associates Inc., registered in Delaware, and owned two airplanes — the 1980 Cessna 414A that crashed Tuesday and a 1942 Boeing B75N1 Spearman biplane.

He had flown the Cessna three times in the past week, Federal Aviation Administration records show.

On Oct. 23, he piloted the plane from Leesburg in Virginia to Defiance Memorial Airport in Ohio, and flew back to Leesburg Sunday.

On Tuesday, he took off from Leesburg for a scheduled one-hour flight to Linden.

No one answered the doorbell at Schloss’ medical office in Kips Bay on Tuesday.

Monsey Rebbe Beats the Hell of His Student then Thows Him Out of Class

 

A 3 year-old video has gone viral of a Rebbe in a Yeshiva in Monsey beating a student, who appears to be around 15 years old. 

The boy is seen (in the very unclear video) on the floor, and the Rebbe then screaming at him to leave the classroom. The video made its way to Twitter, where local news agencies have picked up on it.

Yeshiva Shaar Ephraim gave the following statement 

“The behavior shown on the video is abhorrent and has no place in an educational institution. We unequivocally condemn any such behavior. We are also glad that the faculty member seen on the video separated from our school several years ago.”

Zera Shimshon - Bereishis

In the beginning Hashem created (1:1)

Rashi points out that the Torah refers to Hashem by the name Elokim as opposed to ' . 

When Hashem acts with judgment, He is referred to as Elokim and when He acts with mercy, He is referred to as ' . 

Here, Hashem is called Elokim since when Hashem decided to create the world, He wanted it to be governed by strict justice. However, looking into the future, Hashem saw that such a model would fail. Hashem therefore brought in the trait of mercy and only then added the attribute of exacting justice to ensure that the world

would endure.

Yoeli Oberlander Can't Keep His Filthy Hands to Himself ...... Arrested Again

A 39-year-old man with a history of sex offenses has pleaded not guilty in Rockland County Court to new charges of improperly touching a teenage boy.

Yoel Oberlander is being held in federal custody in New Jersey on accusations of violating his supervised release from prison based on his June arrest in Rockland on the new charges, his attorney Daniel Bertolino said today.

Oberlander was arraigned Tuesday by County Court Judge Larry Schwartz in New City on grand jury misdemeanor charges of third-degree sexual abuse and endangering the welfare of a child. Oberlander is accused of improperly touching a 15-year-old boy's genitals on June 3, Bertolino said. 

Oberlander's next court appearance is scheduled for Nov. 7.

"He intends to vigorously fight the charges and have me defend him until the day he's exonerated, which is our expectation," Bertolino said. 

Supervising Assistant District Attorney Jennifer Parietti declined comment on the grand jury indictment or the case, citing the nature of the charges.  She is chief of the office's Special Victims Unit.

Airplane incident

Oberlander was sentenced to 13 months in federal prison in July 2017 for assault with intent to commit stalking when he touched a woman's chest and harassed her during an El Al flight from Tel Aviv to Newark Liberty Airport in May 2016. He was placed on three years supervised release.
