The Beth Din of America

Let’s meet Rabbi Aryeh Dudovitz. Rabbi Aryeh Dudovitz began his shlichus as the new Chabad Rabbi of Northwest Indiana, located in Munster, IN for many years from 1995 to 2003. This was a warm and friendly Jewish community. He was then the Rosh Yeshiva at Yeshivas Chabad "Zichron Aliza" - (West Rogers Park) Chicago, IL Rabbi Dudovitz also taught in a Chabad girl’s school in the Chicago area as well. Lastly, he started The ‘Moshiach Center’ in Chicago at 6738 N. California Avenue, in West Rogers Park, Chicago, IL. (Currently Reported Closed). In May 2013, a 45 year old West Rogers Park man was charged with sexually assaulting a youth nearly seven years ago. Larry Dudovitz was charged with criminal sexual assault of a victim between the ages of 13 and 17, police said. The incident happened in October 2006. Dudovitz was ordered held in bond court today in lieu of $100,000.00 bail. When the judge questioned the prosecutor about why there was a delay of 6 years in prosecuting this case the prosecutor stated that the witnesses were threatened. It was later revealed that police knew about the attack shortly after it happened, but no arrests were made because Chabad and others pressured the family of the victim not to cooperate with the investigation. According to the victim, it was in October 2006 that Dudovitz came back with his family to their West Rogers Park home after celebrating the Jewish holiday of Sukkot (Simchat Torah) at a mutual friend’s home. The accuser said that he and Dudovitz went to the teen’s basement room where they consumed more alcohol. At some point, the youth said he felt sick and planned to go to bed. But, after falling asleep, the youth said he was awakened by Dudovitz. Court documents allege Dudovitz gave “the youth oral copulation while the victim was sleeping.” Dudovitz claims that he met with Rabbi Gedalia Dov Schwartz one-on-one and discussed the above issue with him in 2006. When asked about this, Rabbi Schwartz stated: “No Comment.” Rabbi Aryeh Dudovitz pleads guilty. For further info Google search Dudovitz.
