There's a serial rapist in Borough Park, Queens, who has been linked via DNA to a 14-year-old Hasidic girl victim and a 4-year-old victim who was kidnapped by the evil troll. Slam dunk, right? Wrong. Trouble is,the parents of the 14-year-old won't let her speak to authorities, much less press charges, as they fear her identity will be revealed, thereby making her less attractive for marriage.
You know what people? Marriage is the least of her problems right now. You are, in effect, allowing a serial rapist to remain on the streets. You are allowing your child to suffer in silence, to develop PTSD, to look over her shoulder, to never have any sort of real outcome, to deny herself the happiness of a career or, yes, marriage anyway. Your own people say this is a problem and yet, you won't let her speak. You are invalidating her pain, not helping her! By burying this tragedy, you send your own precious child that she should be ashamed of what a criminal did to her.
Is this 2008? Are we in New York City? Your religion and culture does not preclude you from getting justice for your girl. Apparently, it DOES allow you to fuck up her life more than the rapist already has. It also sends the obvious message to the perp: "Hey, come to our neighborhood and rape our people. We won't say a word." Duh.
