For immediate release: Wednesday, June 18, 2014

Statement by Mary Caplan of New York City, SNAP Leader, the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests ( 917 439 4187, mcaplan682@aol.com )

We wish the man who threw a cup of bleach in an anti-abuse activist’s face would be jailed. The sentencing today of Meilech Schnitzler was a disappointment.

We share Rabbi Nuchem Rosenberg’s frustration with the outcome. A more harsh sentence would have done more to deter those who would assault abuse victims and their advocates.
