Teen witness suing child molester Nechemya Weberman
The Brooklyn teen whose brave testimony helped get child molester Nechemya Weberman locked behind bars for 103 years is suing the creepy Hasidic counselor.
The victim, now 19 and whose name is being witheld by The Post, was sexually abused by Weberman, an unlicensed Satmar Hasidic youth counselor, from 2007 to 2010 and courageously testified against the pervert, who was found guilty on all 59 counts.
She filed suit against him in Brooklyn Supreme Court last month for an unspecified amount, citing assault and battery, false imprisonment and emotional distress.
The suit also names Bais Rochel School for Girls, which referred the teen’s parents to Weberman for counseling, citing negligence.
Weberman, 55, a father of 10 children and grandfather of 19, sadistically abused the teen from when she was just 12 years old, including burning her for his own arousal and forcing her to perform oral sex.
“I can proudly say that even though I have suffered so much as a young girl, I somehow came out as a strong woman,” the young victim said the day Weberman was sentenced.
Weberman’s team of lawyers appealed the conviction.
“We deny the allegations in the complaint,” Weberman lawyer Michael Cibella said of the new civil suit.
United Talmudical Academy Torah, which oversees the Bais Rochel school, declined to comment.
