“Between 2018 and 2019, Silverman was accused of sexually abusing as many as 15 children. (It still isn’t clear exactly how many accusations there were.) The alleged abuse took place at a preschool operated by the Washington Hebrew Congregation (WHC), a large and influential synagogue …. For 18 months, three law enforcement agencies thoroughly investigated Silverman. They went through every electronic device he owned, scoured his past, and interviewed friends and family up and down the East Coast. Then, the U.S. Attorney for Washington, D.C. and the D.C. Metro Police Department cleared him with an unusual, strongly-worded public statement: ‘After exhausting all investigative avenues, the universal determination of the investigative team was that there was insufficient probable cause to establish that an offense occurred or to make an arrest.’ … But the statement didn’t persuade Silverman’s accusers. It only further infuriated them.” (10/27/25)
