Frum WIC worker harasses women in Boro-Park

We are posting this as per an overwhelming readership request.

There is a Frum person, with a yarmulka and beard, named David, that works in the Boro-Park WIC office on Fort Hamilton Parkway and 56th Street, who harasses the women clients while he serves them. According to many client accounts he will ask very personal questions and will whisper them, asking the women to bend in closer to hear what he is saying. Many times after getting an answer to a personal question from an unsuspecting woman he will then admonish her for what she had said to him and will tell her that he disapproves of it. Also, when serving a woman he will purposely make them wait for a very long time for no apparent reason and will keep on going back for erroneous things that he supposedly forgot, hassling them all the while.

We have been getting many messages to post this story from numerous people sporadically over the last few weeks but have held out posting it until we investigated the matter and made attempts to have it worked out. We interviewed many of his victims and got very similar reports. We also spoke to his supervisor who said that because he was a union worker there was not much more she could do than to warn him. She said that if any real action was to be taken to rectify the situation there would have to be letters sent to the main WIC office by regular citizens.
