'Predator' US rabbi admits filming women...

A "predator" rabbi in the US capital could spend the rest of his life in prison after admitting Thursday he hid cameras to secretly record scores of women preparing for a Jewish ritual bath.

Bernard Freundel, 63, pleaded guilty to numerous counts of voyeurism and faces a maximum of 52 years behind bars when sentenced in May, the US justice department said.

"Bernard Freundel exploited his position of power to victimise dozens of women who entered a sacred, intimate space of religious ritual," said attorney Ronald Machen.

"He betrayed the trust of every woman whose private moments he caught on camera along with an entire community that counted on him for moral leadership. We hope that this guilty plea will allow each of his victims to move forward and heal."

Cathy Lanier, chief of police for Washington, DC, added: "This predator committed an outrageous breach of trust." Full story...
