Beverly Hills cops busted a New York rabbi this week on a sex abuse warrant for allegedly molesting a child for one year in the Chabad community in Brooklyn, police said Wednesday.
Rabbi Menachem Tewel, 30, was arrested Tuesday on accusations that he abused a boy between 2005 and 2006, cops said in a statement.
A 22-year-old man reported the abuse on Sept. 12, telling cops that Tewel performed oral sex on him beginning in July 2005 when he was 14, police sources said.
Tewel, who was 22-years-old at the time, was his religious advisor.
