BROOKLYN - Monsey Rabbi Israel Weingarten was convicted this afternoon on all five counts related to taking his daughter out of the country with the intent and purpose of having sex with her.

Weingarten was silent, his face unchanging as the verdict was read in federal court. His daughters and supporters broke into tears at the news.

The victim expressed relief and said she hoped other victims would come forward.

Weingarten defended himself in the case.
