Victim Urges Judge to Keep Abuser Behind Bars
Update: 2025-12-07
Description
Rivky Deutsch, a key witness in the conviction of Nechemya Weberman for sexual abuse, urges a Brooklyn judge to deny his request for a reduced sentence. Weberman, a prominent Hasidic school counselor, was sentenced to fifty years in prison for abusing a girl over years. His lawyers argue for his release due to age, medical issues, and a supposedly disproportionate sentence. However, Deutschs attorney, Sarena Townsend, counters that Weberman presents a clear risk to society and that his sentence is consistent with other sexual assault cases in the borough. The judge is expected to rule after reviewing all filings and testimony at a hearing scheduled for Tuesday.
