With Aguda the decision always rests with a Rabbi.<br /><br />By the way, is the RCA halachic view, which sounds very much to me to be the view of R' Schachter שליט’’א in his shiurim on the topic predicated on the basis that those incarcerated will not be molested themselves in the prison system?<br /><br />Certainly R' Schachter discussed that issue and as I recall her was מסופקAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7309929059139673041.post-49309862990375084062011-07-27T22:48:21.442+03:002011-07-27T22:48:21.442+03:00The commenters on V-I-N come from the sewer.The commenters on V-I-N come from the sewer.Peternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7309929059139673041.post-74985317753097314902011-07-27T20:39:55.319+03:002011-07-27T20:39:55.319+03:00@ JW - The RCA is not saying the same thing as the...@ JW - The RCA is not saying the same thing as the Aguda. It says speak to lay and rabbinical experts in the case of doubt. Lay expert could be social worker, doctor, psychologist, lawyer etc. These would be obligated to go to the Police if their opinion suggests a crime has occurred.<br /><br />@ Ben - presumably you would not want to see the brooklyn murderer put in jail since he is allegedly a frum Jew. In fact, even if the Oslo murderer was a Jew, your position would be that you cannot report or give evidence against such a person to the goyisher authorities.Ben MIkrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07122937371918515052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7309929059139673041.post-49737392814438407472011-07-27T15:09:00.196+03:002011-07-27T15:09:00.196+03:00The commenters on V-I-N see a clear differnce.

Both are clear about "reasonable suspicion". The RCA does not state how that criteria is met. The Agudah expects a Rav or Rav backed by professional will verify this criteria. Something is wrong when two people say the same thing, one is praised and the other demeaned.Just wonderingnoreply@blogger.com
