Judge Shares Harsh Words As 770 Diggers Back In Court

New York Post

A Brooklyn judge on Monday berated a rebellious crew of Hasidic Jewish students charged with digging a secret tunnel under a prominent Crown Heights synagogue — even as four defiantly demanded a trial.

“If these young gentlemen, if these kids think they’re exercising power over this court, they are sadly mistaken,” Brooklyn Supreme Court Justice Adam Perlmutter said in court. “You’re a shame to your family. You’re a shame to the worldwide Chabad movement.”

Two of the accused students had their cases adjourned and will have the charges dismissed if they refrain from any more digging underneath the Chabad-Lubavitch world headquarters at 770 Eastern Parkway and stay out of trouble for the next six months.

    Do these kids (young adults?) have parents? Are they from other countries? They need professional intervention.

    WHERE ARE THEIR RABBONIM? IF THESE BOYS DON’T FOLLOW DIRECTION, THEY SHOULD BE DEPORTED BACK TO ISRAEL AND FIGHT THE TERRORIST!
    WHAT A CHILLUL HASHEM AND CHILLUL LUBAVITCH!
    THEY HAD BETTER BE CAREFUL NOT TO GO TO TRIAL BECAUSE THE JOURERS ARE MOSTLY ANTI-SEMETIC! PRISON IS NOT A PLACE FOR A FRUM YID!
    PLEASE GET IT THROUGH TEIR HEADS!

      Mrs Laine, it is an inyan of hiskashrus to be imprisoned like many of the Rebbes before us and SM Rubashkin. And upon release, they become larger than life heroes. They then go on inspirational speaking engagements. Maybe write a book of Bitochon. They would be a great catch for shidduchim! You don’t know what you are saying! Old fashioned way of thinking! Get with the times! Revolution!

    Hello? It is an inyan of his-kashrus to be imprisoned like many of the Rebbes before us and SM Rubashkin. Upon release, they become larger-than-life heroes. They then go on inspirational speaking engagements. Maybe they write a book about Bitochon. They would be a great catch for Shidduchim! You don’t know what you are saying! The old-fashioned way of thinking! Get with the times! Revolution now!
