Police have launched an investigation into a prominent rabbi in southern Israel following testimonies received by ynet revealing suspected pattern of alleged sexual abuse toward young women over the years. Lior (pseudonym), 20, described her encounter with the rabbi: "Do you touch yourself and does it feel good?" he asked me. I asked back, "Rabbi, what does that mean? I don't know." He told me, "Put your hand on your organ, and when you move your hand it feels pleasant." Those exact words. I was barely 12 years old.
