Child Molester Walks By Father of Victim, Gets Exactly What He Deserves

An old case of dad justice from decades ago is going viral on YouTube.

I’m rarely a fan of vigilante justice, but in this case, the courts ended up being okay with it.

Leon Gary Plauche, a Louisiana native, gained fame back in the 1980s after taking televised justice on Jeff Doucet, a well-known karate instructor who had abducted and molested his child.

Plauche was initially charged with second-degree murder, but ended up getting only five months probation.

Mazel Tov - Rabbi Hershel Schachter!

CLICK ABOVE PHOTO! Rabbi Moshe Feinstein states the very marriage of a gentile woman to a non observant Jew, is equivalent to an open declaration that she will not observe the precepts. This is so, because it is highly unlikely that the gentile member of such a union, will be more committed to Judaism than her remiss Jewish husband (certainly when they are living together prior to their marriage). Unlike mental or tacit negations, explains Rav Feinstein, open declarations do invalidate conversions. When such cases appear before a rabbinical court, its members actually become witnesses to an acceptance declaration that is not sincere. Therefore, it is no longer a tacit insincerity, but rather an obvious one. As such, they are forbidden to sanction the conversion. Regardless of what this Jewish court may declare, the conversion is invalid and the person is not deemed a member of the Jewish nation. In Iggros Moshe, Letters of Moshe (Yoreh De’ah, no. 157), he writes that “According to the Law, it is certain that one who converts for the sake of marriage, does not intend to keep the commandments, and is not a proselyte at all.”
