Ex-New York Senate leader corruptly helped son get paid, jury told
A
former leader of the New York state Senate strong-armed three companies
to pay his son over $300,000, knowing that his position to influence

Former co-director of Kabbalah Center accused of groping in California trial
The
former co-director of the Kabbalah Center, a spiritual group whose
brand of Jewish mysticism has drawn numerous celebrity adherents but
also controversy, went on trial on Tuesday in a lawsuit brought by a
follower who says he groped her. Yehuda Berg, 43, son of the late rabbi
who founded the organization, was called as the first witness in the
trial, testifying he struggled with drug and alcohol addiction that led
to his resignation from leadership in the group in 2014. In a lawsuit
filed last year in Los Angeles Superior Court, Jena Scaccetti accused
Berg of inviting her to his mother's apartment in 2012, plying her with
alcohol and narcotic painkillers and making an unwanted sexual advance
that included hugging her and fondling her leg.Read More ...
