Chazan found guilty of sexual offences against teenage girl
A chazan has been found guilty of sexual offences against a teenage girl.
Jason Blair, 47, from Mill Hill, was convicted of multiple counts of sexual assault against a girl aged 13 and 14 at the time, at St Albans Crown Court on Friday. The offences took place in 2015 and 2016. He will be sentenced later this month.
Blair, of Halegrove Gardens, allegedly attacked the girl in Cheshunt, when he had been performing in an amateur dramatics production of 'Sleeping Beauty.'
In court Blair denied the charges, saying: "Not only did it never happen, just even thinking about it is horrendous. I never did it – it never happened."
Blair is known as a glass-blower and events manager, occasionally doing bar and bat mitzvahs and other family simchas. He also acted as a bar mitzvah tutor.
