Backers of accused child molester Macy Gordon have wreaked
vengeance upon the victim’s family and his sympathizers, sources told
the Daily News.
Since Gordon was accused of sexual abuse Monday, his
supporters in the insular Yeshiva University have told customers to boycott the
victim’s parents’ businesses, pulled advertising dollars from an Orthodox radio
show and spat at an anti-molestation activist.
“It’s getting serious,” a law enforcement source told The
News.
Meanwhile, the pervert’s posse took out a two-page spread in
the Washington Heights-based Yeshiva community’s largest newspaper in an effort
to raise $1 million for a defense.
“The entire community is sitting on that accused’s bench God
forbid,” reads the two-page spread in the The Commentator. “In the coming weeks
we must come up with a million dollars to be able to continue pursue the case
to rescue the ‘scapegoat’ Gordon.”
Sources close to the case say the unnamed group hopes to
hire famed criminal defense attorney Alan Dershowitz, who helped get O.J.
Simpson acquitted of murder.
Gordon faces years in
the slammer for subjecting a young student he subjected to closed-door molestation - starting
in 1979 when he was 14.
The victim claims that after making his views public he
filed a February 2011 criminal complaint against the rabbi, his father’s
business listing operation started bleeding clients, her nieces were kicked out
of their yeshiva, and three men stormed his brother’s restaurant to rip off its
kosher certificate. The restaurant is now shuttered.
Women also began to shun her mother’s side business selling
Mary Kay cosmetics. “Some have gone. And some have come,” the mother shrugged.
After the the victim has gone public, a text message began
circulating in the community. It reads:
“Please send around to at least 10 people. If you’re going
to (name redacted) to make your face . . . you are a part of killing the Jewish
Nation and five kids are home without a father,” referring to Gordon’s
children.
“The pressure — it’s unbelievable,” the victim’s mother told
The News on Thursday. “I can’t take it anymore.”
Oh… wait. I just re-read it and have made a few typos. This
isn’t about Gordon and YU after all. it’s about Weberman and Satmar. Never
mind!
