In a case that riveted the Philadelphia area and American Jewry for years, Neulander, the founding rabbi of the 1,000-family M’kor Shalom in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, was convicted in 2002 of paying confessed killers Len Jenoff and Paul Michael Daniels to murder his wife so that he could freely carry on a love affair with former Philadelphia radio personality Elaine Soncini.

  1. I hope that he did Teshuva before he died.

    2. For all and any עבירות that he committed. I don't think that he actually murdered anyone. He "just" hired others to kill his wife. That may be abhorrent and sinful, but אין שליח לדבר עבירה.

  2. So nice of you to wish him Teshuva, it's true of everyone so unclear why you felt the need to speak out the obvious.

    1. I actually had more to say, but this was the kindest thing that I could come up with under the circumstances.
