The son of Brooklyn's most admired Rabbi reveals the truth about the extreme and isolated cult his father established and the atrocities in it, that continue to this day.
A Hasidic True Crime Story. An astounding 300,000 people attended the funeral of Rabbi Schik – an admired American ultra-Orthodox Rabbi. Unbeknownst to his followers, Rabbi Schik was also the leader of a transatlantic crime organisation which established an extreme and segregated cult spanning between Brooklyn and Israel. While female members were forced into underage marriages and sustained sexual assaults, the money was flowing into the Rabbi's own pockets. This corrupt culture prevailed for decades, with no one ever daring to expose the painful truth – until now.
Over the course of seven years, the story follows the Rabbi's son and two women who ultimately left the cult. Together, they discover and expose the devastating legacy of the Rabbi and his community.
