Cedar Rapids, IA – A federal judge has postponed the sentencing of a former kosher slaughterhouse manager Sholom Rubashkin.
Rubashkin was to be sentenced in U.S. District Court in Cedar Rapids on Thursday. Judge Linda Reade on Monday reset sentencing for June 22 instead of May 27.
Rubashkin was convicted of 86 counts in November. He was charged following a May 2008 immigration raid at the former Agriprocessors plant in Postville.
Prosecutors have asked for a 25-year sentence. Defense attorneys wants a 6-year sentence.
Rubashkin is currently on trial in Waterloo on 83 state counts of child labor violations connected with the meatpacking plant.
All of Anash are encouraged to attend a Kinus in the merit of Sholom Mordechai Rubashkin this Tuesday night, 12 Sivan, May 25, in Oholei Torah.
Guest speaker: Rabbi Yosef Y. Jacobson.
Program will start at 7:30pm sharp and will conclude at 9:00pm with Maariv. Kinus is for men, with limited seating for women.
Please come and show your support for a fellow Lubavitcher!
I love how people are being so optomistic about how its yud tamuz and all when its so possible that the mamzeres will postpone it again and she probably will
It is erev yud beis tamuz. It was the Geula for the Frierdike Rebbe, and for all Chassidim. Really between the geula of gimmel tamuz and yud beis tamuz. It will be for him too. We should take lessons from what the chassidim did while the Frierdike rebbe was in prison and that should be our model. Maase avos siman lebonim. Any ideas?
June 22nd correspnds to Yud Tamuz. Which starts with Kapitol Nun Hay which has the famous “Padah Veshalom(He has redeemed with Shalom.) etc. May it be immediately Now Mamosh! Moshiach Now!

pushing it off is torture – it’s causing everyone involved to go crazy since he can’t be out on bail. If he was out on bail we could say “great! keep pushing it off!” but like this it’s really cruel – can’t u see he’s suffered enuf lady?!?!

IT SHOULD BE CANCELLED FOREVER! AMEN
Isn’t it UNCONSTITUTIONAL to drag out a sentencing?!
I’m pretty sure it is….
lets NOT
#4 I think you’re 100% correct
Anyone notice the Hebrew date? Very close to Chag Hageula. Hmmm…
I believe she’s pushing it off because she sees the present trial is not going good for the prosecution. It’s not like she didn’t know he would be in the middle of a trial the first time she pushed off the sentencing. The present one was already scheduled…
