New Square fugitive arrested in London 



One of two remaining fugitives accused in an $11.6 million swindle from federal subsidy programs was arrested yesterday in London.

Avrum David Friesel, the son of New Square's mayor, was wanted from a 1997 indictment that accused him and six others of fraudulently obtaining federal funds for a variety of bogus educational and housing purposes.

Part of the scheme used Rockland Community College to funnel an estimated $5.1 million for several thousand students in a Judaic studies program that did not meet funding guidelines.

Friesel was arrested by London's Metropolitan Police Service at the request of the U.S. Attorney's Office. Details of his arrest and when he could be extradited to the United States were unavailable yesterday.

"It's a complex matter," U.S. Attorney's Office spokesman Herbert Hadad said yesterday. "They've arrested him, and that's step one."

A London judge ordered Friesel to be jailed pending a May 7 bail hearing.

Can someone explain: I thought this ganaf was pardoned by Clinton before he left office. What happended?

 

HE TOOK ALL THIS MONEY SUPPOSEDLY FOR NEW SQUERE YESHIVA FOR RELIGIUS REASON NOW HOW ABOUT THE CHILUL HASHEM IT CAUSED HOW DO YOU THINK THE WORLD LOOKS AT JWEISH PPL NOW. ALL FOR TORAH REASON THIS IS WHAT THE OLD RABBA WANTED?

 

He'll say a bracha for Hillary to be elected so she can pardon him.

 

I don't know why so many people that write in this blog have lost all the feeling of "Rachmones" for our brothers that got in trouble with the law. They sound self righteous and throw out all kind of excuses why the "Crooks" deserve what they got. My question is, why you people sound happy? what is ere to glee about? and joke on someone Else's "cheshbon". Do you know that behind those jail bars are also a whole family, mothers, babies and children with broken heart crying and waitng but will not be seeing their daddies for a very long time? And besides, what do you people gain from a fellow brother sitting in jail? I think its a real shame.
Remember, you laugh at someone, one day someone might laugh at you

 

yeah, but not in jail! This was a vicious scheme to dupe the gov't. Rachmonus has no place here.

 

well said

 

WHO THE HELL R U OR WE TO JUDGE ?

 

why such an old picture it looks like for the yuds

 

what the heck is wrong with people?

If you're a fugitive, MOVE TO CHINA. I know that it might be a little hard to get kedassiah there, but you'll find it even harder in jail. If you managed to get out of the country why couldn't you just protect yourself properly?

I find it hard to be sympathetic with idiots like these.

 

I'm not familiar with this case- did the person commit the crime for selfish reasons and pocket the money, or was he encouraged to commit the crime for the benefit of the Moisad? What did the court find?

 

Intersting his name sounds just like Fritzl, the other guy who was arrested this week.

 

You've got it wrong. Nobody is joyous about this. We're just saying that he got what he deserves. There is absolutely no place for rachmonus in a case like this. The man should be put away for years.

 

For all you uys writing that he should sit in jail a long time and he deserves it - A) How can you hope the RBS"O will show you mercy when you show none to your own family? Or are you perfect and free of all sin? B) Please reveal your name so the rest of us can avoid making shidduchim with someone who is obviously not mezerah avraham avinu.

 

He did not steal any money.

The money was GIVEN to him willingly - although perhaps foolishly by clerks who didn't do their homework until after 5 million was given out.

Had the clerk done his job and checked it out before signing his foolish name to 5 million, he would not have had any problem.

Again this was nit THEFT Al Pi Torah.

This was TAUS AKUM.

Taus Akum is Mutar.

Besides the Government OWS the frum community money because the Government CHEATS all frum yidden by "stealing" from the frum when they have the frum TAXED, yet refuse to pay for frum education on par with FREE (Government paid for) secular education for Goyim.

So anyone who thinks that obtaining a government grant while a TECHNICALITY existed that "it was not quite on par with technical requirements based on "someones" personal so called 'government' oppinion"....If you call him a "ganev" then the government is also an even worse GANEV for withholding Schar Limud funding which the government is "STEALING" form the frum and giving it to GOYIM in public school where they use they "steal" FRUM TAXPAYERS dollars to teach EVOLUTION to Goyim in Public Schools.

Hagonev Min Haganov Potur.

 

i don't chap why these "frummeh" (skvere) chevra are so money hungry ,why don't work instead of stealing ("of course it was l'shem sha'maim")? nebbach on such people.

 

Did the RBS show rachmunis on Yonah when he RAN from doing His bidding? No! He but his feet to the fire. It was when Yonah realized his mistake and did tshuva that the RBS showed rachmunis on him. Don't try to tell me this man did t'shuva in the belly of a 747 flying to England! He will do it now that he has been caught and is in a cell with plenty of time to reflect on what he has done and how his actions taint our entire people. And we should daven to H' that he is given a fair trial (as we all deserve) and that his family get by in these hard times. But the man has to stand up and admit his crimes against his fellow man and take his lashes like a man. The rachmunis will be that a way is found to repair the damage he has done not just by forfeiting his freedom (and his wallet) and that his punishment is one that is truly correctional and makes him a better person- a better torah Yid and a better member of our society.

 

WHO ARE YOU TO JUDGE ,

IF YOU CAN SAY I DONT CARE ABOUT ANOTHER YID YOU ARE PROBABLY NOT PART OF KLALL YISROEL, BECAUSE AS JEWS WE MUST FEEL FOR EACH OTHER, IF WE HAVE NO FEELINGS.... YOU ARE "NOT" PART OF THE SPECIAL CHOSEN GROUP.

YOU ARE PART OF THE 80% WHO DIED IN MITZRAIN.


SORRY FOR WRITING THE E M E S ...........

I DON'T KNOW THIS MAN BUT HAVING AHAVAS YISROEL I FEEL FOR HIM AND HIS FAMILY.


MAY HASHEM HELP HIM GET OUT OF THIS MESS. AMEN.

 

I don't know where to begin.

to: Who is the rteal Gonef:

The government is not stealing your taxes. You willingly choose to send your children to a private school. Under your way of thinking, you should get a rebate on your taxes if you don't have any kids, never had a fire, never had to call the police.

Unless I'm mistaken, there are entire Mesechtos dealing with Beis Din and civil crimes. Where did we develop this mentality that it's ok to steal and we cannot judge? If this person broke into your house and robbed you, would you feel the same? Woukd you let him go saying, that like thec village cclerk, it was your fault for not having a lock that wasn't stong enough?

 

TAXES ARE A PACKAGE DEAL

Many years ago, on the subway advertisements, there was a photo/picture of various government workers, wearing their uniforms and holding their equipment. This included military, police, firefighter, paramedic, sanitation, street light workers, etc.

The caption read, "IT'S NOT WHAT TAXES COST YOU. IT'S WHAT THEY BUY YOU."

No, I don't like my taxes going for teaching evolution. But, the grim reality is it's a "package deal."

There are lot's of goyim complaining about their tax money used to fund the fire department's extra time for Erev Pesach (Hey! What happened to separation of church and state?!), or the US support of Israel, etc.; But, that's just tough, buddy Goy!
