There have been several high profile cases in the DL world, including in Mercaz HaRav Yeshiva about 10 years ago. In that case, the Roshei Yeshiva were questioned by the Police for tampering with evidence and perverting the course of Justice.

And having a position of authority allows them to do it with much greater efficiency, eg the ex President.Eddie in UKnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7309929059139673041.post-43106275278716035032011-01-03T16:35:28.418+02:002011-01-03T16:35:28.418+02:00Since this seems to have no end to it, and is not ...Since this seems to have no end to it, and is not confined to any one sector, we have seen haredi, Dati Leumi, reform etc all involved in various types of abuse.
