Woman breaks into Jewish temple, desecrates sanctuary and Torah, then returns to scare children, prosecutors say
Harris County prosecutors say a woman broke in and desecrated it last Saturday, leaving behind several thousand dollars in damage.
Instead of showing up to court for her hearing Friday, they say she came back to the temple and did even more harm.
”The damage is immeasurable,” said Assistant Harris County District Attorney, Erica Winsor.
Last Saturday, Winsor says a rabbi getting ready to officiate a Bar Mitzvah at Congregation Emanu El walked into an unholy surprise.
A Torah is Jewish holy scripture handwritten with a quill and ink that could take years to scribe.
“It can’t just be repaired. It might have to be replaced,” Winsor said.
Law was arrested, but prosecutors say instead of showing up to court for her arraignment Friday, she returned to the congregation.
