In 2016 Daniel Greer was sued in Federal Court by EM, who obtained a $15 million verdict against Rabbi Goat. I use the nickname “Goat” in keeping with the prison theme of my blog. Everyone who goes to prison gets a nickname. That’s prison culture. If you don’t have a nickname, you’re barely considered a real criminal. You’re just some unfortunate soul who wandered into federal custody by mistake, a complete dork who probably should have stayed home. The nickname I was given in Otisville Federal prison was “Larry Noodles.” I was caught with unauthorized cooked spiral pasta in my dorm, AKA contraband. I was issued a disciplinary report aka “a shot” and punished. I don’t recall the nature of my punishment, but when you commit a crime in prison whats the worst they can do to you, send you to prison? Actually, if you are a bad boy, the guards can send you to the “SHU” AKA “special housing unit” AKA “solitary confinement.” Its not literally solitary. You get put in a cell with someone else 24/7 with one hour a day for “recreation” where you are allowed to step outside the building and get some fresh air. If two guys get into a fight the guards sometimes entertain themselves by putting both guys in solitary, in the same cell, and then take bets on which inmate will snap first. My crime of possession of contraband did not result in my being sent to the SHU.

I gave Rabbi Greer the nickname “the Goat” for a number of reasons. The Goat thought he was the “Greatest Of All Time” and he had a pet goat named Yankel AKA Yankee, who played with his children. The Goat’s backyard and detached garage were transformed into a kid-friendly pedophile Michael Jackson Neverland Ranch attraction, complete with goats, chickens, ducks, a wading pool, and other animals. One detail that stuck with me was the rooster. The Goat covered the rooster every night with a bucket so it wouldn’t realize dawn had arrived and start crowing and wake up the Goat at five in the morning.

The children were always impressed when the Goat took them on a tour of his pedophile Neverland Ranch. Only someone as powerful as the Goat could get away with flouting the New Haven zoning laws. The Goat’s pet goat Yankee was an ornery goat and decided it would be fun to head butt Rabbi Goat. Rabbi Goat announced that Yankee would have to be killed, and eaten by his family, as punishment. The Goat’s five children were forced to eat Yankee. This is how Rabbi Goat coarsened, desensitized and groomed children, even his own, for molestation. During the civil trial there was testimony that Ezi was raped by his father the Goat. If Ezi was raped, then I can assume all of his children were molested at one point or another. Rabbi Goat’s daughters fled the compound in their teenage years, never to return.

Rabbi Goat’s sons Ezi and Dov stayed in the compound and protected the Goat’s child sex trafficking operation for decades. Rabbi Goat and his sons got involved in local and State politics and boasted about how the Mayor of New Haven, the Chief of Police of New Haven, local aldermen, local State representatives, a Probate Judge, and Senator Richard Blumenthal all attended the Goat’s annual fundraising dinners. The New Haven Police Department rented the Goat’s building as a substation, which was located right across the street from the Goat’s school for boys. The Goat and his son Ezi served at various times on New Haven boards and commissions, including the Police Commission. The Goat erected 8 foot fences around all of his interconnected properties, blocking the view of the courtyards behind the buildings and fences. The Goat was a criminal mastermind.

In 2019 Rabbi Goat was sentenced to 12 years in State prison after he was convicted by a jury. The States’ Attorneys’ Office did a very poor job prosecuting the Goat. I was very much involved in the prosecution helping State’s Attorney Maxine Wilensky handle the case. I tracked down witnesses and begged them to testify in court. Wilensky only had one witness, the victim, ie., EM. It would have been a he-said / she-said case, and EM did not present as a model victim. In general, people tend to have more sympathy for female victims than male victims of sexual abuse. Plus EM is not an emotional person, he is guarded and not expressive.

Rabbi Greer was released from prison after only serving half of his sentence as part of an agreement with the State to settle a habeas corpus petition that challenged my role in the case. I believe the State settled because the State did not wish to have me testify at the Goat’s public habeas trial. Local news has been covering the Goat drama for years. It would have been embarrassing for the State to allow the public to hear how they almost blew the case. Plus my involvement with members of the State’s Attorneys Office may have been an embarrassment for the State. At some point after the Goat trial, while I was helping Wilensky with post trial motions filed by the Goat, I asked Wilensky to write a letter of reference to the CT Bar supporting my readmission application. She told me that the State’s Attorneys Office “wouldn’t let her.” She wouldn’t write a letter long after she retired from her almost $200K a year job with a full pension for the rest of her life. I subsequently appeared before members of the CT Bar, one of whom was New Haven State’s Attorney Kathleen Morgan, who worked in the same office as Maxine Wilensky. She voted against my readmission application mainly because she felt that this blog was “disrespectful” to the legal profession, without mentioning my rights under the First Amendment. She obviously is unaware that the First Amendment protects “provocative” speech, especially speech directed at the government. Ms. Morgan mainly prosecutes New Haven drug dealers. I doubt she ever handled a First Amendment case in her entire life.

After Wilensky retired I was contacted by a States Attorney who had taken over the Goat files, as I had helped Wilensky, along with her successors, after the Goat’s conviction with post trial motions the Goat had filed to try to get released from his pen. I told him that Wilensky said that the State wouldn’t let her write a letter of reference for me, after all the help I had provided to the State. The Goat probably would have been acquitted had I not been involved. The State’s Attorney told me that he didn’t have any information or knowledge about this. He said he couldn’t help me. He seemed shocked at some of the information I shared with him about Wilensky’s bungling of the Goat case. He also talked about some of the things I wrote in my blog about the Goat, and said he understood the humor, unlike the many members of the Bar who sat in judgment of my blog, and found such humor “inappropriate” for an attorney.

The victim EM, even asked Maxine Wilensky to write a letter for me on my behalf, but to no avail, the “State won’t let her.” I tried to get information under the Freedom of Information Act as to the reason why the State won’t let Wilensky write a letter, but ran into a brick wall. The State objected to my FOI request, apparently the FOI Act shields the inner workings of the Connecticut Department of Criminal Justice from public scrutiny. Yet if you sue a City or Town police department for civil rights violations the Federal Court will allow access to all kinds of police investigation materials. What harm would the CT Department of Criminal Justice suffer if they revealed the reason why they prevented Maxine Wilensky from writing a letter of reference for me? Disclosing such information would only serve to promote fairness and transparency in the government, especially in law enforcement. What powers does the Department of Criminal Justice still exert over a long retired States Attorney to prevent her from writing such a letter, especially considering the fact that she would have most likely lost the case had I not been involved. I can’t help but wonder whether the Goat’s powerful political connections had any role in the State’s bungling of the criminal prosecution, and the State’s subsequent attempts to curtail my free speech.

The most serious charges against the Goat were dismissed by Judge Alander due to the State’s negligence in failing to initially properly charge the Goat with sexual assault. I pointed out this problem to the State’s attorney when I was first asked to help them, yet they did nothing about it. They also failed to secure the testimony of Avi Hack, the man whom the Goat groomed for molestation since he was 16 years old, and who ran the Goat’s school for years before he decided to dump the Goat and testify for EM in the Federal civil trial. I warned the State’s attorney that Avi would try to duck the subpoena and not to go looking for him on the eve of trial. They didn’t listen to me and were unable to get Avi served with a subpoena. After the Goat was convicted of risk of injury to a minor I interviewed the jurors. The jurors did not seem to be totally convinced of the Goat’s guilt and wondered why the State’s attorney didn’t drag Avi Hack, Dov Greer and Ezi Greer to testify in court.

After the Goat’s conviction, I couldn’t shake one question: Did the State almost lose this case through a cascade of avoidable mistakes, or was there something more going on? The prosecution made a series of blunders that resulted in the Goat getting convicted on less serious charges, and almost resulted in the dismissal of the entire case. The Goat was a politically influential figure, and for a long time the criminal case appeared to go nowhere. E.M. reported the allegations to the New Haven Police Department well before the Federal civil case concluded. Yet no arrest was made until shortly after a federal jury returned a $15 million verdict in E.M.’s favor.

After the Goat was arrested he hired Attorney Willie Dow, AKA “Willie the Dow” who was able to drag out the case for almost two years, without much push back from the State’s Attorney. Having practiced criminal law for over 20 years, the repeated continuances became increasingly difficult to understand. What struck me most was that Greer was not required to appear personally when continuances were granted, while the courtroom was filled with other defendants who had to appear to request a continuance. I believe the only reason it went to trial was because I blogged about the endless delays. Why was the Goat getting special treatment? The Goat was tried and convicted just before the Jewish holidays in the Fall of 2019. In 2020 COVID shut down the courthouses. The Goat would have never seen a day in jail if the trial was delayed past the Jewish holidays. Its also possible that Maxine Wilensky was dragging out the case as long as possible so that she wouldn’t have to try the case in court, as she was very close to retirement at the time of the trial. My attorney friends told me that Maxine was mostly doing plea bargains at the time of the Goat trial and hadn’t tried a case in a very long time.

The Goat currently is 86 years old. The Goat has been seen around New Haven in the Edgewood area. He walks slowly, bent over, and is assisted by his wife Sarah Greer. I spotted him in the Edge of the Woods parking lot in his car with his head buried in a Talmud. Will the Goat ever admit that he was an evil man? Is he looking for forgiveness? I guess I can ask him these questions the next time I see him.

I had a lot of correspondence with the State’s Attorney who handled the Goat case. Below is a copy of our text messages with a few redactions. These are the documents that the State apparently did not want the public to see. I believe the State’s attorney’s office decided to let the Goat out of jail and settle his habeas case rather than risk having you, the public, take a peek into the inner workings of the State’s Attorneys Office, and hear me testify about these documents. The State’s attorney had objected to every appeal, motion and habeas petition that would have set the Goat free, yet when I was scheduled to testify, the State suddenly reversed course and sprung the Goat from his pen, preventing me from appearing on the witness stand. Is this “democracy” at work? Abraham Lincoln once said, “that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.”

Rabbi Goat’s wife Sarah Greer is referred to as the “Ewe.” A close relative of Sarah’s, who was sickened by her devotion to the Goat, and hasn’t spoken to her in decades, reached out to me and referred to Sarah as the “Ewe” which is a female sheep. I know that the Goat and the Ewe were strictly against intermarriage between a Jew and a Gentile but what about inter-species marriages?

The State’s attorney did not thoroughly research Dr. Fagan and was lucky Willie the Dow didn’t raise the conversion therapy issue, as it is very controversial, although the United States Supreme Court recently ruled against States that tried to make it illegal for a therapist to discuss conversion therapy with a patient, on First Amendment grounds.

Page 76: Discuss Adelle and Harold Hack, who were the Goat’s partners in crime, running the Goat’s shady non-profits for many years, until the Goat accused them of thievery, kicking them off the books, according to evidence at the civil trial. Is there no honor amongst thieves? Discussions of the closing of Tikvah high school. The failure of a Tikvah girl to properly babysit the Hack daughter. The Goat at one point during the civil trial alleged that Avi Hack had a sexual relationship with one of his sisters, the one who married Ezi Greer, the goat’s son. Avi never admitted to such a bizarre accusation. Ezi Greer and Dov Greer were stuck in the middle of their father’s drama. Ezi married a Hack, and his kids were referred to as “Gracks” and Dov was on the Goat’s payroll. Dov and Ezi were like brothers to Avi Hack. After the Goat’s crimes were exposed Avi Hack moved to Providence RI and more recently moved to Baltimore, Dov Greer moved to Long Island NY, Ezi Greer moved to Waterbury, Harold and Adelle Hack moved to Waterbury, and a couple of the Goats former congregants either died or moved to Waterbury. Rabbi Albert Feldman, a big Goat defender, wrote a letter of support to the Goat’s sentencing Judge Alander. Feldman wrote his letter of support on very old stationary from the shul where he was no longer a rabbi, implying that he was still the rabbi of the shul and the shul supported the Goat, and incorrectly described himself as the “senior” presiding Orthodox Rabbi of New Haven. Feldman passed away in 2022 at age 93. Gary Lynes, who was a regular at the Goat shul, passed away. Gary was a Korean War veteran and famous song writer and talked about collecting royalties, however small, until the day he died. Gary was smart enough not to write a letter of support for the Goat. Rabbi Yecheskiel Shlingenbaum, who ran the Jewish burial society in New Haven, was forced to move to Waterbury because the Goat evicted him from one of the Goat owned apartments. The grounds for eviction: Shlingenbaum was feeding inside information about the Goat to Larry Noodles, who posted it on the Noodles blog. You can’t make this stuff up! The former Director of the CT Innocence Project / Public defender Darcy McGraw and her husband actor Bruce Altman, also fled the compound, but not without supporting the Goat up until the very end. They were one of the last to leave the compound. McGraw was the director of the Innocence Project at the time a unanimous jury found the Goat guilty of sexual molestation in a criminal case and at the time a unanimous jury found the Goat liable in a civil molestation case. Darcy, who is not Jewish, and her husband Bruce, who is a Jew, regularly attended the Goat’s very sparse religious services, and Darcy regularly studied Jewish theology one on one with “Rebbetzin” Sarah Greer. If Darcy thought the Goat was innocent I guess she must also feel the Son of Sam, Ted Bundy and Adolf Hitler are all innocent. Darcy never thought I was innocent. She threatened to have me reported to Probation, and possibly have me locked up, for writing my blog that exposed the Goat’s child sex trafficking operation. Avi Hack recruited children from broken homes to the compound, where they were easy pickings for the Goat, as well as Avi Hack, who groomed teenage boys for molestation. I did not take Darcy’s threats lightly. She told me she was good friends with my sentencing Judge, ie., CT Chief Federal Judge Janet Hall. I ended up avoiding going back to jail, but what kind of a “public defender” pulls such a stunt to protect her pedophile rabbi friend.

Page 83: State’s Attorney Wilensky discussed wedding of her “best friend” at a Greek Orthodox Church, most likely the wedding of former public defender Angelica N. Papastavros, who was appointed a Superior Court Judge in 2021 by Democrat Governor Ned Lamont. Papastavros, had powerful connections with the Republican Greek Klarides sisters, from the Valley, in the Hartford legislature. Why would a hard core Democrat appoint a hard core Republican to the Bench? Trump / Obama would never do such a thing. I went to law school with one of the Klarides sisters. She drove a new Mercedes to class and was always decked out in fancy clothing, sporting expensive jewelry such as a Piaget gold watch. Not an Audemars watch, but this was the University of Bridgeport Law School, not well-healed Yale. She used to bring her boyfriend from the Valley to sit in on law classes. He had a mullet haircut and this was in the 1990s! No self respecting Yale law student would bring their boyfriend in a mullet haircut to Yale Law School to sit in on a class. The other students gave the boyfriend a nickname, ie., Rocky, because he talked like Sylvester Stallone. The Klarides sisters could best be described as the Kardashians of Connecticut, from the Valley no less. Their father was a hard working Greek immigrant who owned the only shopping plaza in the Valley. Their Greek paisan Angelica Papastavros was never considered a legal scholar by the CT Bar. Does anyone need to be a legal scholar to be a judge these days? The United States Supreme Court makes “neutral” decisions which only coincidentally supports their politics every day, “rewinding the clock 150 years, upends its precedent, misconstrues our history, and sheds any pretense of judicial modesty.” (Sotomayor dissent in Trump v. Slaughter, one case of many, such as Roe v. Wade, where the Supreme Court “slaughtered” legal precedent.). As New York Federal Judge Jed Rakoff recently observed, the Supreme Court may at times reach conclusions “on the basis of their personal ideologies, only afterwards seeking the camouflage of ostensibly neutral rationales.” Jed S. Rakoff, The Supreme Court’s History as a Regressive Institution (2024).

Hon. Papastavros was also from the Valley. My lawyer friends were shocked when she was appointed to the Bench. She recently was involved in a bitter family court case involving custody of a family member, which she was forced to withdraw as it had little to no merit, in my opinion. She also briefly was in foreclosure just before she was nominated to the Bench. She used to meet the State’s attorney, in her signature sartorial style, for leisurely lunches while I was there helping with the Goat case. I was asked to leave when they went for lunch. The State’s attorney clocked out every day at 5 PM. It was a 9 to 5 job. She said she had to get home to feed her dogs. I was shocked. The high profile Goat trial, which was being covered by the New York Times, required a lot of work, yet the lawyers at the State’s Attorney’s Office, some of whom were making close to $200K a year, all appeared to clock out at 5 PM to feed their dogs. In my mind locking up the goat was far more important than feeding the State’s Attorneys’ dogs. When Papastavros became a judge she had to start wearing the “old mother Hubbard” AKA a black Judicial robe. Judges started to wear colorful robes and wigs back in 14th century England. Judges in America dumped the wig and adopted black robes. Why do judges still wear robes in the 21st century? What’s the point? Legislators don’t wear special clothing. Presidents don’t wear a king outfit. Judges hate robes. In the over 20 years of practicing law I don’t know how many times I heard Judges complain about having to put on a robe before they appeared on the bench. In very brief matters I have seen judges dispense with the robe and just appear in their suit. Probate judges don’t wear robes, nor do administrative law judges.

Page 88: I advised the State’s attorney during the trial to physically stand between the Goat and the Ewe in the courtroom while the Ewe testified because I saw the Goat coaching her with hand signals and facial expressions. I noticed that the Goat coached Mrs. Ledbury during the civil trial. The State’s Attorney didn’t listen to me.

Page 93: Discuss Rabbi Notis bankruptcy filing

Page 98: The State’s attorney was irate that reporter Chris Peak of the New Haven Independent wrote something unflattering about her after the hearing in which Willie Dow almost had the entire case dismissed. She texted me: “FU*% the New Haven Independent.” I was able to get Chris Peak to remove the “unflattering” language in his article. I am a firm advocate of the First Amendment, yet back then I guess I trying to curry favor with the Governmental authorities by censoring Chris Peak. I apologize to Thomas Jefferson, James Madison and George Washington. After the Goat trial I was unable to curry favor with anyone in the Judiciary other than Attorney Richard Brown, but he was outnumbered by a very long list of Connecticut Bar members who were unable to tell the difference between Larry Noodles and Lawrence Dressler.

Page 100: Discuss my interview with jurors

Page 104: Discuss how jurors were impressed with Willie the Dow. The State’s attorney was not happy, she said she won two cases against Dow, she is 2-0.

Page 105: Discuss going out with the State’s Attorney for a kosher beer to celebrate the Goat’s conviction. Should I really celebrate the downfall of a fellow human being with a State’s Attorney? I am starting to feel guilt. But he was an evil man, a “rasha” who destroyed lives. Many boys, and girls who survived his school became addicted to drugs and alcohol. Others never recovered from their trauma.

Page 108: Rabbi Notis, who testified for the Goat, asked the State’s Attorney during his cross examination whether she was Jewish. The State’s attorney was wearing a gold star of David necklace during the trial. The juror noted that the State’s attorney looked surprised at the question. The State’s attorney obviously wanted the jury to think that she was Jewish. I don’t think it factored into the deliberations in any way. I often wondered whether she was assigned to the case because she was the only Jewish prosecutor in the New Haven State’s Attorney’s Office, and she was about to retire. Let the lame duck prosecutor take the hot potato goat to trial, it won’t matter whether she wins or loses, she is leaving anyway, she won’t have to deal with any fallout if she goes down in flames, she will still collect her generous State pension. What is really odd is that this same prosecutor, who would have lost the Goat case but for my involvement, refused to provide me with a letter of recommendation to the CT Bar after the trial, she claimed the “State wouldn’t let her.” No good deed goes unpunished!

Above is a picture of the “spite fence” Doris Zelinsky erected on her property in Rhode Island as a way to give the local zoning officials the middle finger after they denied her permit. Doris and Ed Zelinsky gave birth to former US Attorney Aaron Zelinsky, who was part of the Mueller team investigating Donald Trump. He resigned after Trump took office and now works for a big law firm out of Baltimore. They also gave birth to Nathanial Zelinsky, who works for a big law firm. Ed and Doris are very litigious individuals, frequently filing lawsuits appealing taxes, zoning orders, and even sued their neighbors in a dispute over a small grassy area of their deceased neighbor’s property that bordered the Zelinsky property. The Zelinskys claimed they acquired the grassy area by “adverse possession” because they practiced their golf swing on the small plot of lawn in the Sagamore Cove Beach area in Branford for some decades without the consent of their deceased neighbor. The neighbors heirs were unable to sell their house because Zelinsky put a lien on it. The heirs told me they were forced to settle and pay the Zelinskys rather than engage in long, costly litigation.

My CT Bar readmission application is on appeal, a copy of my brief is posted below. Here are a few excerpts: “the Statewide Grievance Committee (SGC), repeatedly focused on whether the public might confuse the character “Larry Noodles” with the individual Lawrence Dressler. Journalist Paul Bass, who testified as a character witness for Mr. Dressler before the Fairfield County Standing Committee, was asked whether the public would confuse Larry Noodles with Lawrence Dressler. Mr. Bass laughed in response and asked the Committee whether they would have difficulty confusing Jon Stewart the comedian with Jon Stewart the private individual. Before the Hartford County Standing Committee Mr. Friedle pressed Mr. Dressler: “You just said it was a fictional character and here you said it was you. What is it? What’s the truth? You were Larry Noodles, weren’t you?”… The panel did not address several conflict-related issues raised by Mr. Dressler, including the relationship between State’s Attorney Maxine Wilensky and Mr. Dressler, the participation of a New Haven State’s Attorney on the Hartford Standing Committee, the issue of former SGC member Suzanne Sutton referring Mr. Dressler to Attorney Sullivan due to his “connections” with the Hartford Standing Committee, or the issue of Mr. Sullivan advising Mr. Dressler that all that mattered with the Hartford Standing Committee were personal connections…. Judge James Abrams never addressed similar conflict of interest issues raised by Mr. Dressler concerning prior contacts with members of the Fairfield County Standing Committee, such as Doug Mahoney and Cindy Robinson, and CT State’s Attorney Kevin Dunn (the husband of the Chairperson Kathleen Dunn), who discussed the details of Mr. Dressler’s case with Mr. Dressler’s attorney…When a judicial system simultaneously maintains a focus on managing public perception, freely exercising its own First Amendment rights, and denies reinstatement to an applicant whose speech was critical of the judiciary, the appearance of viewpoint-based decision-making becomes difficult to ignore…Counsel for the SGC acknowledged the contentious nature of the Standing Committee proceedings. SGC counsel Elizabeth Rowe later contacted Mr. Dressler seeking information regarding his co-defendant Jeffrey Weisman and apologized to Mr. Dressler for her treatment of Mr. Dressler during the first hearing. Mr. Dressler raised Ms. Rowe’s apology both during the subsequent Fairfield County hearing and in court filing…The record demonstrates that the disciplinary authorities repeatedly focused on the content of Mr. Dressler’s blog and faulted him for maintaining it and failing to remove archived copies of the blog from third-party websites…The disciplinary authorities repeatedly focused on the content of Mr. Dressler’s blog, particularly as it related to the politically influential Rabbi Daniel Greer and asked Mr. Dressler: “Can you explain why you didn’t give that same Constitutional guarantee to Daniel Greer when you publicly refer to him as a child rapist and a pedophile prior to any conviction in your blog of August 18, 2019?”… Mr. Dressler raised conflict-of-interest concerns involving participants in the proceedings, including relationships between certain officials and members of the Standing Committees. For example, the participation of New Haven State’s Attorney Kathleen Morgan on the Hartford County Standing Committee raises potential concerns regarding impartiality. Members of the Office of the State’s Attorney, such as Maxine Wilensky, had prior involvement with Mr. Dressler in connection with the Greer prosecution. In addition, the Judicial Branch’s public relations initiative expressly identifies “collaboration” with the Chief State’s Attorney’s Office as an institutional objective. Strategic Plan for the Judicial Branch, Public Service and Trust Commission, p. 47. The participation of State Attorneys who previously interacted with Mr. Dressler, combined with the Judicial Branch’s acknowledged institutional collaboration with those same offices, raises legitimate concerns regarding neutrality…Attorney Norm Pattis published the following statements on his blog, “my law license was suspended for six months by the same Connecticut judge who presided over the judicial train wreck involving Alex Jones… The judge is stunned by my misconduct. Me, I am stunned the state trusts her with a robe and a gavel. Folks are afraid of this judge, and not for good reason. Why would the judge do this? I think Emerson teaches why: ‘When you strike at a king, you must kill him.’ The same, apparently, applied to queens… We’re preparing to appeal the $1.5 billion default judgment against Jones, a case we believe this judge butchered with her rulings. She got her revenge.” Mr. Dressler cited these statements contending that Attorney Pattis’ remarks were at least as critical as the statements attributed to Mr. Dressler. Yet, despite the public and pointed nature of these comments, notwithstanding Mr. Dressler’s citation to them in pleadings filed in this case, there is no indication that Attorney Pattis was subjected to disciplinary proceedings…”
