Failed Messiah
Rabbi Osher Schapiro, the Britain-based son of the Naroler Rebbe and Director of Kol Bonaich – Teens at Risk, Kids in Pain, said that activists who tell victims to go to police to report child sex abuse are “mishugoyim,” a slur that means crazy people or wild people. He repeated several times that a rabbi must be asked before reporting abuse, and said that if a rabbi says do not call police, you must listen to him. He also implied that God would deal with the pedophiles who escape because of this system, noting an increase in the number of recent prosecutions. Of course, Schapiro didn’t credit any of the “mishugoyim” with that.
