Attorneys representing the alleged victims of a sex offender rabbi who has been accused of defrauding his sick and elderly followers out of millions of shekels on Wednesday protested his emerging plea bargain with prosecutors.

In a letter to Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit and Jerusalem prosecutors, the lawyers derided the reported agreement as “absurd” and an “insult” to those swindled by Eliezer Berland, the leader of the extremist Shuvu Bonim sect, who allegedly conned his desperate followers out of huge sums of money with promises of miracle cures.

  1. How would a Beis Din have handled this better?
