CROWN HEIGHTS, Brooklyn — The school buses were lined up along the service road on Eastern Parkway to block protesters from being seen by people going to the yeshiva’s fundraiser. But their voices can clearly be heard.
“Call the cops, not your rabbi,” protesters chanted, carrying signs saying “sexual abuse of little boys and girls is soul murder.”
Dozens of survivors of child sexual abuse, former students, advocates and parents rallied in front of Oholei Torah.
They are protesting what they say is the continued coverup of child sexual and physical abuse that they say occurs in the boys’ yeshiva.
We’re demanding accountability,” Chaim Levin, the rally organizer, told PIX11. “Two teachers who have physically abused students are still here. One teacher threw a student out a window. The principal been here for all the cover ups,” Levin claimed.
