Even if you've been following the deeply disturbing story of Sam Kellner, the ultra-Orthodox Brooklyn man whose life was destroyed after informing police about a serial child molester who abused his son, you'll want to read The New Yorker's in-depth report on the scandal. It's a fascinating look at how the Hasidic community in Brooklyn enables sex offenders through intimidation, bribery, and their history of voting as a bloc, which gives them significant sway over elected officials like former Brooklyn DA Charles Hynes. New Yorker staff writer Rachel Aviv lays out all the facts of Kellner's ordeal, describing how he needed permission from a rabbi before even reporting his allegation to secular authorities, and how he became a pariah in the community for doing so.
