Loudonville rabbi charged again with sex abuse

A local rabbi has again been charged with sexual abuse after police say he victimized another boy.

Rabbi Yaakov Weiss was charged last Monday with several counts of sexual abuse and endangering the welfare of a child with a 13-year-old boy.

Tuesday afternoon, Albany Police additionally charged Weiss with second-degree sexual abuse and endangering the welfare of a child for allegedly having inappropriate sexual contact with another 13-year-old.

The incident reportedly occurred in June on Whitehall Road.

Police say the additional charges stem from their initial investigation into Weiss -- the same that led to his arrest last week.

Weiss was arraigned in Albany City Criminal Court.
