Expelled Oberlin Chabad rabbi says he ‘made a mistake’ with explicit social media chats

A police report obtained by the Forward sheds light on the removal of a Chabad rabbi from the campus of Oberlin College last week, after the school administration became aware of a police report that alleged he engaged in sexually explicit conversations online concerning minors.

Rabbi Scott “Shlomo” Elkan, former co-director of Oberlin Chabad, allegedly received sexually explicit texts, photos and videos through the messaging app Kik concerning three young people, ages 7, 12 and 13, according to the report.

In December 2025 messages to an adult on the platform, Elkan allegedly responded to photos of someone giving a child a bath. The person he chatted with alluded to touching the child’s genitals and said he had been aroused when the child was sitting on his lap, the report stated.

According to the Oberlin Police Department report, Elkan shared photos of girls as part of the chat. The department closed the case after a 20-day investigation, with no charges filed.

In a phone interview with the Forward, Elkan said he regretted his participation in the chat, but that his messages were not based on real events.

“To be clear, what had happened was an online chat with an anonymous adult on purely fictional, you know, fantastical things that’s not rooted in any kind of reality whatsoever,” Elkan said. “And I entered that, and I should not have, and I take responsibility for that.”

Elkan added that he has been engaged in “professional care and spiritual counseling to deal with all of the stresses and all of the factors that led me to engaging in an unhealthy behavior.”

According to the report, in an interview with police, Elkan confirmed the Kik account belonged to him and said the chats were “escapism” from the stress of his everyday life. He denied ever viewing or possessing child sexual abuse images.

Elkan told the Forward that “oftentimes people think of rabbis as godlike and infallible,” and he “made a mistake in one of the weakest few moments of my life.”

“There was no crime. Nothing illegal. Poor judgment, yes,” Elkan said. “And there’s not a victim. The victims here are the Jewish community and my family.”

UK: Transgender Pedophile Spared Prison After Being Caught With Sexual Abuse Images Of Children As Young As 6

A trans-identified male who was caught with images of young children being sexually abused has walked free from court after being given a community order. Tyler “Kairah” Kelly, 25, was formerly promoted as a happy “trans kid” by British media.

Kelly, of central Middlesborough, was initially arrested following a raid on his home in January. The investigation was reportedly sparked by a tip sent to police indicating that Kelly was in possession of illegal material. At the time of his arrest, two phones were seized from his home, with illegal material being found on one of them. According to Teeside Live, at least one of the images depicted a 6-year-old boy being sexually abused.

Kelly later pleaded guilty to three counts of making indecent images and possessing a prohibited image of a child.

During the trial, Kelly’s defense attorney, Robert Mochrie, said that his client has had a “difficult life due to gender dysphoria,” and lamented the “social isolation she has endured during her early years.” Mochrie described his client as a “prime candidate for rehabilitation.”

The court agreed, and handed Kelly a two-year community order, along with an order to attend a mental health treatment program for six months; an alcohol abstinence program for 120 days; and attend 20 rehabilitation days. Kelly was also made the subject of a sexual harm prevention order for the next five years, which restricts his use of the internet and allows police to search his devices at any time.

Kelly’s arrest holds particular significance, as just 10 years ago he was sympathetically profiled by media for being a “trans teen.”

In a 2016 Metro article, Kelly, who was 15 years old at the time, was described as “a Kim K-lookalike.” The article notes that Kelly began formally identifying as transgender over a school break, leaving as Tyler and returning as “Kairah.”

Another DEPRAVED Leftist: Many Such Cases

An Oregon high school principal placed on leave for celebrating the assassination of Charlie Kirk has been sentenced to five years in prison for possession of child abuse material.

Jeremy P. Williams, former head of Rainier Junior-Senior High School, now joins a disturbing list of leftists in education and politics whose public anti-conservative rage masked far darker realities threatening children.

Williams pleaded guilty to three charges of possessing sexually explicit images of minors. He was initially hit with 13 counts after the Cowlitz County Sheriff’s Office received tips from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children on Aug. 28.

He received a five-year prison term, must register as a sex offender for 15 years, and will serve 36 months of community custody upon release. The Rainier School District placed him on administrative leave after his comments celebrating Kirk’s September 2025 assassination, though the exact wording remains undisclosed.

Hero of the left Cesar Chavez exposed as a monster as girls make horrific abuse allegations

Cesar Chavez, an iconic hero of the political left, has been posthumously accused of grooming and sexually abusing girls as young as 12.

Chavez, the charismatic campaigner for farmworkers’ rights, gained international prominence with strikes and fasts for higher wages and better working conditions for migrant workers who picked grapes and performed other agricultural labor.

After founding the United Farm Workers (UFW) union in 1962 he became the face of the Latino civil rights movement and is still celebrated in murals at schools across the nation. His birthday is a holiday in states including California.

Chavez, who was Mexican-American, died in 1993 aged 66.

The following year, President Bill Clinton posthumously awarded him the Presidential Medal of Freedom, America’s highest civilian honor.

When Joe Biden entered the Oval Office in 2021 he installed a bust of Chavez next to his desk, at the same time removing one of Winston Churchill.

Now, in an exposé that will send shockwaves through the country, the New York Times revealed allegations of inappropriate sexual behavior and abuse by two women, who were girls at the time in the 1970s.

His fellow iconic labor leader Dolores Huerta, now aged 96, also claimed Chavez forced her to have sex in a grape field in 1966.

Transgender “Youth Advocate” Charged With Rape of Infant Girl In Washington

A Washington man who identifies as transgender has been arrested and charged with the rape of an infant girl. William Kelso Flournoy IV, who uses the name “Isabelle” or “Izzy,” was charged last week with first-degree rape of a child and sexual exploitation of a minor.

Tacoma police began investigating the rape after receiving a “priority 1” level CyberTip from Google through a database used for internet crimes against children.

According to the Tacoma Police Department Incident Report obtained by Reduxx, the tip had flagged a photo uploaded through Google described as depicting an “adult man, on his knees with a small infant in front of him.” The man, whose face was not visible in the photo, was penetrating the infant girl vaginally using his penis.

Detectives identified Flournoy as the male in the photo using both an IP address associated with the CyberTip, and by comparing identifying physical features noted from the child sexual abuse image. A detective confirmed that Flournoy had “two distinct moles” on his hands which had been clearly visible in the photo.

Democrat Gettysburg Mayor Who Ran Local Gay Pride Organization Steps Down After Being Arrested for Child Sex Crimes

Gettysburg Borough Mayor Chad-Alan Carr, a Democrat who ran the local Gay Pride organization, has stepped down after being arrested for child sex crimes.

Carr, 41, served as mayor until earlier this month, when he left office citing a “personal legal matter.”

The disgraced politician also stepped down as president of Gettysburg Pride, an LGBTQ advocacy group he helped promote in the historic Pennsylvania town known for its Civil War battlefield.

Pennsylvania State Police announced the arrest during a press conference on March 13, following a Childline report received on February 24.

The charges include two felony counts for photographing or filming sexual acts and knowingly depicting them on a computer, plus one misdemeanor count of corruption of minors.

According to court documents, Carr allegedly groomed a 16-year-old boy he met through high school musical productions in Gettysburg around 2011-2013.

The victim, now an adult, reported that Carr solicited explicit photos, engaged in video sex acts via Skype, and shared his own nude images while pressuring the teen for more.

Carr reportedly described the interactions as “late-night talks.”

Transgender Reddit Moderator Deletes Account After Being Exposed As Registered Child Sex Offender

Reddit users are expressing outrage after learning that a moderator involved in three of the largest trans-focused subreddits is a child sex offender, and may have received protection from another transgender moderator. Branden Michael Dunleavy, also known as Brynn or u/ranshin-da-anarchist, has deleted his Reddit account since the revelations.

Information about Dunleavy’s identity first began circulating on Reddit on Saturday after user u/Living-East-8486 posted a warning on his account claiming that u/Cedarwolf, the top moderator at r/MTF, “attempted to keep a convicted child predator on the r/MTF moderator team.”

In his post, u/Living-East-8486 described a dispute that had emerged on r/MTF involving u/Cedarwolf, hinting that the two had a falling out that ultimately had prompted u/Living-East-8486 to come forward and clarify the allegations.

“The primary thing I’ve been pondering is how on earth I can actually bring this to light without making it seem like I’m just trying to get revenge. To be honest, I don’t think there is any foolproof way for me to do that. Frankly, I’m furious over this situation,” u/Living-East-8486 wrote. “This moderator’s primary reasoning for excluding me from the community was to ‘protect the children’ from my weird ass kink posts (which were always marked 18+). Then I find out that they are openly defending a child predator being on the mod team.”

u/Living-East-8486 included a number of screenshots from what appeared to be private Discord conversations in late 2025.

In one message, top r/MTF moderator u/Cedarwolf, under the handle Cedarpaw, expresses a reluctance to remove Dunleavy from the team because “the next few years are going to be very hard for trans folks,” and instead suggests Dunleavy change his username to better hide his identity.

u/Cedarwolf suggests Dunleavy can establish a fresh Reddit reputation under the “new” username by “spending a week” on other subreddits.

Foreign Hacker Cracked Into FBI’s Epstein Files In 2023, Was ‘Disgusted’ At Child Sexual Abuse

A foreign hacker broke into a server at the FBI’s New York Field Office and ‘compromised files relating to the FBI’s investigation of the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein’ in 2023, Reuters reports. 

According to the FBI, the intrusion was an “isolated” cyber incident – though not to be confused with a different cybersecurity oncident involving a sensitive internal network used to manage wiretaps and FISA warrants. 

“The FBI restricted access to the malicious actor and rectified the network. The investigation remains ongoing, so we do not have further comments to provide at this time,” the agency said in a statement. 

Reuters‘ source claimed that the intrusion ‘appeared’ to be carried out by an individual cybercriminal as opposed to a foreign government (source: trust us bro, we’re here to help). 

The New Hack

The official story: The hack occurred after a server at the Child Exploitation Forensic Lab in the FBI’s NY Field Office was inadvertently left vulnerable by Special Agent Aaron Spivack – who was attempting to figure out how to handle digital evidence within the bureau’s system. 

A timeline written by Spivack and included in the large cache of Epstein documents released earlier this year said the break-in happened ​on February 12, 2023. It was discovered the following day when Spivack turned on his computer and discovered a text file warning him that his network had been compromised, according to that document.

Further investigation turned up traces ‌of unusual activity ⁠on the server, the document said, adding that the activity “included combing through certain files pertaining to the Epstein investigation.” –Reuters

The report does not say which specific files were accessed, whether the hacker actually downloaded anything, or who the hacker was, nor could Reuters determine what overlap, if any, the affected files had with the recent DOJ Epstein file drops.

The hacker expressed ‘disgust at the presence of child abuse images on the device and left a message threatening to turn its owner over to the FBI,’ not realizing that they had accessed the actual FBI. They eventually convinced the hacker, who joined a video chat where they flashed their law enforcement credentials in front of a web camera. 

Spivak says he’s being made “a scapegoat for the intrusion,” and that conflicting FBI policies and poor guidance around informational technology were to blame.  

Interestingly, Spivak was mentioned in an Epstein files email from after the financier’s death, which was sent to multiple recipients. In, someone says:

Hi team,

Aaron Spivak from the FBI (cc’d) has a new file for the Maxwell case that he needs to send to us. Would one of you please coordinate with him to get it via USAfx, then let me know when we have it?

Thanks so much,

EFTA00154980

The FBI breach was first reported by CNN and Reuters on February 17, however the Epstein connection was made by the French magazine Marianne.

The Story Surrounding Seth Moulton’s Illegal Immigrant State of the Union Guest May Have Gotten Worse

Democratic Rep. Seth Moulton possibly committed a crime when he brought an illegal immigrant to President Trump’s State of the Union address on February 24, and then hid the illegal immigrant — Marcelo Gomes daSilva — in his office when daSilva’s presence was made known. ICE arrested daSilva last May.

But the plot now thickens. 

The Milford Police shared information that daSilva was reportedly mentioned in police reports involving “sexual assault and juveniles.”

Here’s more:

Congressman Seth Moulton’s illegal immigrant guest during the State of the Union address is referenced in police reports involving sexual assault and juveniles, police say.

The Herald submitted a public records request to the Secretary of State’s Office and the Milford Police Department regarding two reports, one from June and the other from September of 2021, where Marcelo Gomes da Silva was apparently named as the person of interest.

The Herald sought the police report numbered 21-23101 dated 9/15/2021 featuring Marcelo Gomes da Silva and 21-16254 dated 6/30/21 also featuring the 19-year-old.

Milford Deputy Chief John Sanchioni denied both of those requests, indicating that the police report from June 2021 “involves a sexual assault and juveniles,” and that the report from September 2021 “involves juveniles.” He did not elaborate.

Ex-husband of sex scandal mayor Misty Roberts fought to keep kids away from her former lover who later turned up dead 

Disgraced Louisiana mayor Misty Roberts’ former lover was found dead just weeks after her ex-husband accused him of being abusive, it was revealed Thursday.

Roberts, 43, who was found guilty on Tuesday of having sex with her son’s underaged friend, started dating William Andrew Cronce in the wake of her divorce from Duncan Clanton, the father of her children.

Cronce, a local pipe liner, was then found dead on February 23, 2024.

An online obituary described the 38 year old as a loving and hardworking father, who coached baseball in the DeRidder community where Roberts served as mayor.

‘He was unstoppable on a machine or with a ball in his glove,’ the obituary said. ‘He was truly the man in the arena – falling, standing up and trying again.’

It went on to say that ‘behind an extremely hard exterior was the most gentle man.’

‘He loved and lived with so much emotion and passion,’ the obituary concludes.   

It is unclear how Cronce died, but his death came just about one month after Clanton accused him of being abusive in a civil restraining order to keep him away from his and Roberts’ two adolescent children, according to the New York Post.

Clanton argued that his ex-wife’s new lover had alcoholic, suicidal and ‘stalky’ tendencies in the January 24, 2024 letter asking a Beauregard Parish court judge to grant the protection order on behalf of his daughter, then 10 years old, and son, 13.

‘I am fearful for my children’s safety because William Andrew Cronce does have access to weapons/handguns, he is bold enough to publicly voice/threaten suicide and has shown stalking behavior with the mother of my children,’ he wrote.

The worried father then went on to claim that during an argument with Roberts, Cronce ‘exited the house loudly, shouting in front of [the children] that their mother needs to learn to shut her “c*** sucker” if she knows what’s good for her.’

Cronce had even allegedly threatened suicide in a Facebook post following a breakup with Roberts, and was later found by police ‘incapacitated and unconscious with a gun on his person,’ the ex-husband said.

‘If he is brave enough to take his own life, what is stopping him from shooting Misty, our kids and himself?’ Clanton asked, rhetorically.

He also said that despite Cronce allegedly ‘stalking’ his ex-wife by taking photos of her home and vehicle and sending them to her while they were broken up, she took him back.

Clanton then ultimately filed the request for a protection order after he said Roberts ignored his repeated pleas to keep Cronce away from their children – and even disregarded their own daughter’s wishes not to see him.

Cronce ‘has a history of instability and alcoholism that is abusive in relationships,’ the father-of-two wrote in the court document.
