Aspen rabbi accused of market hit and run by <http://us.mc522.mail.yahoo.com/mc/[email protected]> Troy Hooper, Aspen Daily News Staff Writer Thursday, December 10, 2009 <http://www.aspendailynews.com/print/138030> Printer-friendly version Aspen police say Rabbi Menachem Mendel Mintz’s driving isn’t so kosher. The head of the Jewish Resource Center Chabad of Aspen is accused of hitting a parked car in the Clark’s Market lot and knowingly fleeing. Mintz has been cited for leaving the scene of an accident without providing information and failing to notify police of an accident, both 12-point tickets. The incident occurred the morning of Oct. 22 when a bystander saw a gold van hit an unattended vehicle in the Clark’s Market parking lot. When the driver of the van didn’t stick around or leave a note, she reported it, police said. The witness told police that after she saw the accident, Mintz “got out of his vehicle, looked at the damage, mumbled a few comments, got back into his car, and moments later left the scene of the accident.” The witness “suspected the gentleman may not report the accident, so she wrote both license plates down that were involved in the accident,” according to a police report. The owner of the damaged vehicle contacted police minutes after the bystander reported what she witnessed. The police report did not identify the make of the vehicle, or provide an estimate for how much damage was caused. Officer Ryan Turner traced the offending van to the Jewish Resource Center, the registered owner. The van had scratches and paint marks on the front, passenger-side corner bumper consistent with damage to the other vehicle. Image removed by sender. Mintz The officer said he contacted Mintz at the Jewish Resource Center’s Main Street address and that the rabbi “admitted to me that he was the driver during the time of the accident, but that he had left his contact information on the parked, unattended vehicle’s windshield. I explained to Mintz that there was a witness who said she made sure that he hadn’t left his contact information … Mintz replied that the wind must have blown the note away. … Furthermore, I asked Mintz why he didn’t report the accident, and he replied that he thought the note was sufficient enough,” Turner wrote in the police report. “Mintz explained to me that he was dropping a friend off at the market, and that his friend could verify that he had in fact left a note on the vehicle.” Contacted by the Aspen Daily News this week, Mintz said he has provided a statement from his brother who claims he was in the van when the accident occurred. His brother’s statement supports Mintz’s contention he left a note. Authorities, however, say the witness to the accident reported Mintz was alone. “Nothing happened. I scratched the car, I left a note on it and I have a witness who saw me leave a note,” Mintz said. “[The police report] only has one side of the story. The police didn’t speak to anyone. They never spoke to me.” The police report, however, says an officer did speak to Mintz. Mintz said his lawyer, Chip McCrory, told him the case would be dismissed. “If I’m fined because of it, I’ll be disappointed,” the rabbi said. Mintz is due in court for arraignment on Tuesday.

Your reference to Rabbi Mintz’s driving not being kosher borders on anti-semitism! You should be ashamed of yourself Mr. Hooper. Rabbi Mintz, for your information, is a pillar not only in the Jewish community in Aspen, but in the entire Roaring Fork Valley. He is an honest, upstanding citizen and certainly does not deserve the treatment you delivered. I know Rabbi Mintz very well. If he hit a parked car and said he left a note, then he did just that! End of story. To accuse him of ‘hit and run’ is absolutely outrageous! You and your newspaper should be ashamed of yourselves. You owe the rabbi an apology! Carolyn H. Manosevitz Basalt <http://www.savethemales.ca/240902.html> http://www.savethemales.ca/240902.html The stuff in this link is is pure bull!!! I studied Talmud for 20 years and there is nowhere in the Talmud where this stuff is stated... Before you send such anti Jewish stuff out, you should have the decency to see if it is true.

Nothing changes. I do not wish to engage in debate with people who would imprison you for holding a different opinion. henry [Move... \/] RE: Rabbi Mintz's Reply Friday, November 18, 2005 10:53 AM From: "Mindy Kittay" <[email protected] To: "'Steve Campbell'" <[email protected]> Cc: "'Rabbi Mendell Mintz'" <[email protected]> Really Steve, Rabbi Mintz is right - shame on you. I am certainly not as learned as Rabbi Mintz, I am just your average Jew who went to Hebrew school and reads and studies about my religion and Israel when I have time, and as I have told you before, I never heard, read or learned anything like what these websites are saying. They are taking things out of context and molding it into something they want to prove a point - and that point is that Jews are bad. Which is just anti-Semitism.

Your friend is no scholar in Talmud and everything you say he says is not true. Rabbi In a message dated 11/20/2005 12:17:50 A.M.
