Activists are organizing alleged victims of a late Jewish singer and musician in order to sue his estate for partial compensation.
A law firm has already been identified and is working on the case.
Rabbi Yosef Blau, a spiritual counselor, at Yeshiva University responded to the initiative and said: "We should stand with the alleged victims of sexual abuse and harassment even though the alleged abuse happened 30 plus years ago and he has since died - the same as if the alleged abuse was perpetrated yesterday."
