Who is the mysterious ‘Jake Segal,’ who tricked women into sex?

 https://www.jpost.com/israel-news/article-756071

“Jake Segal” is the alter ego of Rabbi Yosef Paryzer. Paryzer is a foreign citizen in his 30s who worked at Yeshivat Ohr Yerushalayim as a lecturer for first-year students. The Anglo-centric yeshiva reportedly fired Paryzer upon hearing the news about him and removed his profile from their website. His short biography described him as in “high demand from other yeshivos” and as an alumnus of New York’s Yeshiva Darchei Torah and Jerusalem’s Yeshiva Kodshim.

  1. As a yeshiva rabbi, he had plenty of experience in deceiving his students and using persuasion to fuel his narcissism. His tally of women would shame even a secular don Juan.

    Now if /when giving donations to yeshivos, should one follow the principle of rov, ie that the majority of rebbeim are actually going to keep halacha?
