Audio of Dr. David Pelcovitz (a licensed psychologist) admitting to a concerned parent that he was asked
NOT to discuss calling the police in a case where a child was
molested. The LCSC event was headed by Rabbi Moshe Velvel Weisberg, who
was monitoring the event closely. It is illegal to cover up a case of
molestation. You are required by law to report the incident to police,
just as you would a murder. Although it is fully understandable that a
parent may choose not to report to the police, they should understand
that it is within their rights, and even admirable to do so, in order
to prevent a molester from hurting more children. But as Dr. Pelcovitz
admits, "Lakewood is an interesting neighborhood."
The Awareness Center closed. We operated from April 30, 1999 - April 30, 2014. This site is being provided for educational & historical purposes. We were the international Jewish Coalition Against Sexual Abuse/Assault (JCASA); and were dedicated to ending sexual violence in Jewish communities globally. We did our best to operate as the make a wish foundation for Jewish survivors of sex crimes. In the past we offered a clearinghouse of information, resources, support and advocacy.
