According to the article it's more than 50% of the boys who get the treatment in that "community"

Rabbi Rosenberg believes around half of young males in Brooklyn's Hasidic community—the largest in the United States and one of the largest in the world—have been victims of sexual assault perpetrated by their elders. Ben Hirsch, director of Survivors for Justice, a Brooklyn organization that advocates for Orthodox sex abuse victims, thinks the real number is higher. "From anecdotal evidence, we're looking at over 50 percent. It has almost become a rite of passage."

But not only that, it's institutionalized, at the religious level, which implies a couple of things

Ultra-Orthodox Jews who speak out about these abuses are ruined and condemned to exile by their own community. Dr. Amy Neustein, a nonfundamentalist Orthodox Jewish sociologist and editor of Tempest in the Temple: Jewish Communities and Child Sex Scandals, told me the story of a series of Hasidic mothers in Brooklyn she got to know who complained that their children were being preyed on by their husbands.

In these cases, the accused men "very quickly and effectively engage the rabbis, the Orthodox politicians, and powerful Orthodox rabbis who donate handsomely to political clubs." The goal, she told me, is "to excise the mother from the child's life." Rabbinical courts cast the mothers aside, and the effects are permanent. The mother is "amputated." One woman befriended by Dr. Neustein, a music student at a college outside New York, lost contact with all six of her children, including an infant she was breastfeeding at the time of their separation.

It implies that they are doing it on purpose, and that it's not new

There's a purpose behind this practice, which I suspect is to rewire the brain of the child in a certain way, through sexual trauma

And I don't believe for a second, that this practice is strictly limited to so called "fundamentalist orthodoxes"... If authorities in Israel don't go after them it's for a reason, because of course they know

And then you have that guy in the OP, not seeing what's the moral problem here.... What are the odds?
