‘Malfeasance hushed up’

‘Malfeasance hushed up’

I was pleased to see that Rabbi Shmuley Boteach criticized the rabbis who took part in the vastly overdone and over extravagant Iranian wedding (Aug. 20). However, when the scandal broke on the Rubashkin’s kosher slaughter house in Iowa, there was no criticicism whatsoever against the rabbis in charge of the kashrut at that facility. The rabbis only received high praise despite the sick animals being slaughtered, the child labor, and the unsanitary conditions. The apparent malfeasance of these rabbis was hushed up, and Rabbi Boteach was also very quiet about the matter.
