PEDOPHILIA JEWS

THE FORWARD – A politically connected Orthodox rabbi has been accused in a federal lawsuit of molesting a student at his New Haven Jewish boarding school.

In a civil complaint filed in federal court in Connecticut on May 3, Eliyahu Mirlis, a former student at the Yeshiva New Haven, accused Rabbi Daniel Greer, 75, the school’s founder and principal, of repeatedly molesting him over the course of three years while Mirlis was a student at the school.

Greer is a former member of the New Haven Board of Police Commissioners and a prominent, if controversial, figure in the city. Fundraising dinners for his yeshiva were regular stops for Connecticut public officials, including a current U.S. Senator, New Haven’s former mayor, its police chief, and New York City police commissioner Bill Bratton.

Connecticut’s governor even visited Greer’s kitchen table in 2012.

No criminal charges have been filed against Greer. His alleged victim, now 28, claims that Greer raped and abused him “dozens and dozens of times,” both at the school, at motels, and at properties owned by the school. Mirlis was 15 when the alleged abuse began and 17 when it ended.

The civil complaint also alleges that Greer molested “at least one other minor boy.”

A woman who answered the phone at Yeshiva of New Haven hung up on a Forward reporter.

“I would remind the public to ask for evidence before rushing to judgment,” Greer’s attorney, William Ward, said in statements to media outlets.

Greer was a prominent modern Orthodox political activist in New York City in the 1970s, a graduate of Princeton University and Yale Law School who served as a deputy commissioner in the administration of New York City mayor John V. Lindsay. He then ran an unsuccessful campaign for the New York State Assembly from Manhattan’s Upper West Side in 1972.

When he arrived in New Haven, however, Greer appears to have swung decisively to the right, on both the religious and political spectrums. Now more Orthodox than modern, he is a vocal opponent of same sex marriage, among other issues.

Greer founded the Yeshiva of New Haven and a related elementary school in a rough New Haven neighborhood called Englewood in the 1980s. His aggressive, decades-long campaign to redevelop Englewood has put him in regular touch with the city’s political leadership.

According to a report in the New Haven Independent , Greer planned to build a safe community in Englewood. He and his charities bought up dozens of homes in the area, which they redeveloped and walled off with high fences. His schools, originally set up to serve his own family and the others that had moved into Englewood with them, eventually drew male high school boarding students from out of town.

Greer campaigned against prostitution in Englewood in the 1990s, working with a group of locals who would take pictures of prostitutes’ clients and then post the pictures on fliers under the phrase, “John of the Week.” In 2007, Greer organized an armed neighborhood watch in Englewood that drew national headlines.

Greer’s redevelopment not-for-profits have taken in millions in grants and tax credits, according to a 2007 Hartford Courant report. In 2008, the nonprofits agreed to pay $162,000 to clean up lead paint in apartments they owned, following an investigation by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

Greer’s local work in New Haven gained him positions of power within city government. In addition to his time on the Board of Police Commissioners in New Haven, he served as chairman of the New Haven Redevelopment Agency, and, in the 1990s, sat on a commission appointed by Connecticut governor John Rowland to study school voucher programs.

As for his political ties, Greer had something of a head start: California governor Jerry Brown, a close friend, was his roommate at Yale Law School.

The rest of his political connections are most visibly on display at the annual dinners he hosts to raise money for his yeshiva.

New York City police commissioner Bill Bratton appeared at the annual dinner in 2013, alongside New Haven Police Chief Dean Esserman. In 2008, the annual yeshiva dinner honored Richard Blumenthal, then the state’s attorney general and now a U.S. Senator. Last year, former New Haven mayor John de Stefano spoke at the yeshiva’s gala, alongside the president of Yale-New Haven Hospital, Richard D’Aquila.

Connecticut governor Dannel Malloy visited Greer’s home in 2012.

Greer has high-profile Jewish communal connections, as well. A prominent rosh yeshiva at Yeshiva University’s rabbinical seminary, Rabbi J. David Bleich, sat on the board of Yeshiva of New Haven as of the time of the group’s most recent tax filing. Bleich did not respond to a request for comment from the Forward.

In the late 1990s, Greer and his family made national news when his daughter Batsheva, sued Yale along with four other students, claiming the Ivy League university violated their constitutional rights by requiring they live in coed dorms. The suit was ultimately dismissed.

Antonio Ponvert III, Mirlis’s attorney, said that his client’s lawsuit came after suffering years of damage. “He felt able for the first time in his life to take on the burden of coming forward publicly in his own name, and to try to right this really serious wrong that was done to him,” Ponvert said.

One thought on “Powerful New Haven Rabbi Sued For Child Sex Abuse”
  1. RESISTANCE TO HIV
    “Genetically, Ashkenazi Jews are freaks. For most of Jewish history in Europe, cherem-wielding rabbis and an unwelcoming Gentile world made inbreeding a far more appealing option than intermarriage. As a result, Ashkenazim became what scientists call an “endogamous group,” which is another way of saying that they have been sleeping with their cousins for a thousand years.” …
    Yes, you still need to use condoms. But a significant proportion of Ashkenazi Jews have a mutation in a gene called CCR5, and the most common strain of HIV uses the protein produced by CCR5 to climb inside people’s cells. The mutation prevents HIV from exploiting that protein to gain access. If you get two copies of the mutant gene, then most strains of HIV will have little to no chance of getting into your cells. If you get one copy, you’re still less likely to contract HIV, and, if you do, your prognosis is better.
    The number of Ashkenazi Jews who have the mutation varies among different Jewish subgroups. According to a study conducted at the Center of Neurogenetics in Paris, a whopping 45 percent of Litvaks (Jews from Lithuania) have at least one copy of the mutation. Ethiopian Jews, on the other hand, don’t have it at all.
    Population geneticists aren’t sure why Jews have the mutation in such high numbers. Some of the microbes responsible for Europe’s plagues may have used the same protein, and, as one theory goes, the plagues hit Jews harder than most other European populations, leaving us with a genetic advantage today. Wearing the same heavy clothes every day and never bathing may have had its benefits.”

    Now we know the truth! When Pharaoh expelled the jews they went south into Africa, had sex with monkeys and became carriers of the Human Immunodeficiency Virus particle. Moses must have been the first jew born with the CCR5 mutation. He resisted AIDS, passed the mutation on to his off spring and thereby became a legend.

    Thousands of years of promiscuous homosexual sex under filthy conditions spread the mutation throughout the ashkenazi jew population. A jew passing this filthy disease onto his filthy sex partners is a perfect example of survival of the fittest (actually survival of the filthiest).

    Jews brought the black plague down onto the heads of the white northern European people in the middle ages. Jews are responsible for the AIDS epidemic in modern times. We must sue the jews for reparations! Make the jews pay for this evil curse! The AIDS epidemic is the real holocaust!
