Chaptzem Exclusive - Behind the scenes of the Yona Weinberg child molestation case 

In order to help keep the transparency in the Heimishe news cycle we are publishing this post about an ongoing correspondence that we are having with a source who claims to have publicly available information that will show accused child molester Yona Weinberg in a better light.

After much back and forth, and many attempts to try to clarify things, this source has not been able to give us one solid piece of information or any logical argument.

The source wrote us many lengthy e-mails filled with speculations, contradictions, character assassinations, accusations and even allegations against some of the accusers' family members.

Each time we would ask the source to back up his statements he would avoid doing so. Instead he would go into long unfounded illogical rants devoid of any true substance. Instead of having any real solid information to help Mr. Weinberg, as he said he did, all he had was confusion, speculation and plain out unfounded bad-mouthing.

We truly hope, for Weinberg's sake, that the source that we have been in contact with is not giving him legal advice, because if he is Weinberg does not stand a chance in court.

Comments:
This may come as news to you, but it's guilt, not innocence, that needs to be established.

In law, in halachah, and in every civilized society, every person has a preumption of innocence, even after being accused.

Yes, inasmuch as tehy do not harm others, accusers have the presumtion of innocence and honesty as well. That is why they deserve a fair hearing and sympathy.

But that's all anyone has a right to do based on the accuser, until the guilt of the accused is established -- after he has been given a fair opportunity to defend himself in a court of law or other before another tribunal.

Sorry, the internet is no place for hearings, hangings, or lynchings.

 

YONAH!!! IS THIS YOUR LAWYER?

 

Query what type of evidence would "prove" the non-occurance of an event.

 

One type of evidence is alibi-- that you were somewhere else when the crime occurred.

 

people are still talking about this!!!

 

is there any way to prove you did not do something.bI was recently involed in a case, where someone said B hit him two weeks ago. I do not know how one would prove that B did not hit.
