who does he expect to find in prison, other tzaddikim? he was very grateful to those who advocated for advanced his chances to become CR; now, now, not so much. lie with dogs, come up with fleas.
the guy is a bum and deserves never to be called by the title ‘rabbi’….
let him enjoy the peace and solitude in jail and come out a decent person….

If you can’t do the time
Don’t do the crime.
