Posters promoting an upcoming fund-raiser for a rabbi charged with sexually abusing a teenage girl blanketed Jewish shopping strips in Williamsburg - sparking a campaign protesting the charity bash

Signs supporting Nechemya Weberman, 53, - written in Hebrew and Yiddish mix - promote a gathering at the Continental Caterers dining hall. Police arrested Weberman in February 2011 after a 16-year-old girl reported that he was her therapist and had forced her during counseling session to perform oral sex and other lewd acts starting when she was 12-years-old. “It is very painful,” said the victim’s mother about the street ads up on poles on Bedford and Lee Avenues. “The community has taken his side.” At least two styles of posters were spotted. The more cartoonish set shows a missile falling onto a crowd of Orthodox Jewish men announcing a danger hitting the neighborhood. The ads explain Weberman’s innocence by bashing the victim’s story and questioning why she decided talk to the police. It is against Jewish law to report a Jew to secular authorities without rabbinical oversight. Brooklyn District Attorney Charles Hynes has worked closely with Jewish religious leaders allowing rabbis to okay which victims come forward. But backlash to Hynes’ rabbinical relationships is growing as more rabbis are arrested for molesting kids. “Don’t cover up what happened to children in this community. This has been happening for too many years,” said Hershy Deutsch, founder of the Kings County Safety Patrol, a civilian patrol group in the Jewish section of Williamsburg organizing a protest for the fund-raiser. “I want a lot of people out there for the family to show people that giving money to this perpetrator is wrong,” Deutsch said.
