first Haredi female judge

What's good for the USA is often good for Israel, though usually Israel adopts USA behaviors a few years later...

If the USA could appoint a Haredi woman, Ruchi Freier, as a judge, Israel can appoint a Haredi woman as well. And Israel just did.

After some speculation that it might happen, it finally has. Chavi Tucker, a graduate of the Bais Yaakov school system and daughter in law of the Rosh Yeshiva of Yeshivas Chevron, has become the first female Haredi judge in the Israeli court system. Tucker's childrne are all in Haredi school systems and a son served in a Haredi unit in the IDF, so her bonafides all check out..

Good luck on the new position. Being the first means she is a trailblazer.May it lead to more and more integration, acceptance, and understanding.
