Just recently in the news I heard of children taken away from their mother while she was off "smoking pot with some dude." The police found the children in a home that was filled knee-high with trash, the toilets were overflowing with excrement, and the refrigerator was overrun with bugs. The home was demolished rather than cleaned because it was so disgusting.<br /><br />A home doesn't accumulate that much garbage overnight. Where was the community in both of these cases? What is wrong with people that they'd rather not make a scene than protect innocent children?!<br /><br />Sorry for unloading. I've been following this case on your and Mother in Israel's blogs and it is just so mind boggling that things ever get as bad as the burka lady or the trash house.Fern @ Life on the Balconyhttp://lifeonthebalcony.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-58662682178074137842009-07-21T06:36:02.846+03:002009-07-21T06:36:02.846+03:00Being from Shiloh, I never saw any of the "bu...Being from Shiloh, I never saw any of the "burkas ladies."

There are so many rumors about what did or did not happen that i have no idea.<br />If what she is accused of is true, then yes. Obviously she needs help as well, but if she really abused her kids then she should be arrested as the law applies to everyone equally. haredi child abusers should go to jail just like non-haredi abusers should. <br /><br />But again, I don't know the details and what, of all that was said, is true or not. <br /><br />regardless of whether she should have been arrested or not, nothing that happened justifies the response of the community. Legal means, sue for millions (if it was not true), get people fired (if it was not true), etc. But riot like animals?Rafi G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00699851287106903971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-18277934222825111022009-07-19T15:03:17.745+03:002009-07-19T15:03:17.745+03:00So Rafi, you would agree that the mother who was a...So Rafi, you would agree that the mother who was arrested last week for abusing her child by not feeding him should also in fact have been arrested.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-70352753648276754312009-07-19T14:01:05.414+03:002009-07-19T14:01:05.414+03:00This is good news.

This woman is no longer free to abuse her children. <br /><br />There are still disturbing loose ends.... <br /><br />How come she had been doing this abuse for over ten years, before she was brought to trial?<br /><br />And the timing - she hit the headlines (in Israel & around the world) for her peculiar burkas, and within a very short time (weeks), the legal process "pitom" got into gear.<br /><br />What took so long, and was it the negative publicity (to her community in particular and to Bet Shemesh in general) about the burkas, which actually got the abuse finally stopped??David Morrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18054370508508714804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-79218075397235145832009-07-19T12:39:50.417+03:002009-07-19T12:39:50.417+03:00Her lawyer, I guess, never heard of Kupat HaIr?
