Flyer for Sabbath Seminar: Kol Tzedek
The Brooklyn D.A.’s office is holding a special Saturday educational meeting on the subject of Protecting Jewish Children and Families. The meeting is for tomorrow and being held at a Jewish Orthodox synagogue in Homecrest on a Sabbath day; meaning: this is a matter of great importance.
Here’s the information from the flyer :
The District Attorney Is Looking for You.
Kings County DA Charles J. Hynes will speak on the Kol Tzedek Program Protecting Jewish Children and Families
Shabbat, December 5, 2009
10 a.m.
Beth El Jewish Center of Flatbush
Ave. T and Homecrest Ave.
Question and answer session at Kiddush. Join us!
The address for the Beth El Jewish Center of Flatbush is 1981 Homecrest Avenue.
Note: We saw this flyer posted on an electrical pole on Avenue U. Although we’re (me) against most postings on lampposts and electrical posts (including ones related to the District Attorney’s office), this information is important enough to pass onto you. Look for our (my) editorial about this and other issues related to this flyer, in the future.

Protect them from what?Some please let me know what it is, as i have 4 grandchildren who according to the brooklyn DA need special protection.
why is this only limited to jewish?
My assumption is that it’s to review security measures before Chanukkah, a time when synagogues are targeted for hate crimes.
No, it’s a cracjdown against sex abusers in the Jewish community. A lot of victims, many of them children, have been fearful of reporting such incidents.

They don’t report those incidents because they are afraid of the “Jewish Community” NOT of the person who committed the crime.
Religious Jews prefer to solve this stuff in-house under Jewish Laws so they avoid reporting crimes to regular authorities.
There’s been a lot of denial that this is happening. It’s not an unusual reaction. Especially when it children, its too much to deal with for a lot of people.
