As they say, it ain't over till it's over. Or until the fat lady sings. Whichever comes first.

The District Court just ruled the Malka Leifer has been faking her mental illness and is fit to stand trial. The court will now push forward the extradition process so that Leifer can stand trial in Australia for the heinous crimes she is accused of against minors who were her students..

as mentioned above though, it ain't over till it's over. the expectation is that her defense lawyers will now appeal to the Supreme Court and any extradition process in place will be halted until the Supreme Court decides the matter.

In the meantime, if Litzman had to leave the Health Ministry just for this to happen - dayeinu!
