@skjask @AS8519069463534 @thevillagerabbi @nytimes @NickKristof @RaphiStein I will respond shortly.
@skjask @AS8519069463534 @thevillagerabbi @nytimes @NickKristof @RaphiStein I do not know the parties in the Adeena Kohn/@RaphiStein divorce case. I am not compensated by either one of them. My research is completely my own. /1
@skjask @AS8519069463534 @thevillagerabbi @nytimes @NickKristof @RaphiStein On May 4, 2026, I posted a comment supporting Adeena Kohn on Facebook. I had heard about the case through the campaign of “FlatbushGirl” aka Adina Sash on her behalf. I proceeded to post in her favor assuming she was an Agunah. /2
@skjask @AS8519069463534 @thevillagerabbi @nytimes @NickKristof @RaphiStein Shortly after I started posting about Adeena Kohn’s “situation,” a woman named Aviva Hack started commenting on my posts with what looked like smut photos. I assumed she was a frum anti-feminist and asked her to stop. /3
@skjask @AS8519069463534 @thevillagerabbi @nytimes @NickKristof @RaphiStein Then I looked more closely at the pictures. Aviva was showing me that “FlatbushGirl” aka Adina Sash had initiated a smut campaign to generate public awareness. The idea was just like her “sex strike.” Jewish holiness depends on adherence to feminism. /4
@skjask @AS8519069463534 @thevillagerabbi @nytimes @NickKristof @RaphiStein I was very upset at Sash’s tactics and commented on one of her Instagram posts.
By then I was more aware of the complexities here, including international removal of children from father.
Sash threatened me twice.

@skjask @AS8519069463534 @thevillagerabbi @nytimes @NickKristof @RaphiStein Hack said she knew Kohn and commented that bigamy was an issue in Monsey.
I took this to mean that Kohn was pushing for a Gett so that she could get remarried even if it meant bigamy.
The Gett campaign could be viewed as extortion by mob.

@skjask @AS8519069463534 @thevillagerabbi @nytimes @NickKristof @RaphiStein I have read some of the case documents and it appears Adeena Kohn was mentally very fragile during the period of time before and during she initiated the divorce.
/7
@skjask @AS8519069463534 @thevillagerabbi @nytimes @NickKristof @RaphiStein Kohn said she needed treatment in the USA for her condition so Stein agreed. This somehow became permanent relocation without his consent.
Kohn cut him off — filed for civil divorce and her mother would not let him see the children.
The case is actively being litigated.
/8
@skjask @AS8519069463534 @thevillagerabbi @nytimes @NickKristof @RaphiStein The court papers note that Stein was facing a very expensive divorce lawyer.
According to Eli Evans that lawyer was paid for by Kohn’s second cousin, who has been indicted for child crimes.
/9
@skjask @AS8519069463534 @thevillagerabbi @nytimes @NickKristof @RaphiStein More and more, I started to see things from @RaphiStein’s side. No comment though - he is gagged by the court. Aviva Hack kicked off Facebook. Eli Evans harassed. I was threatened. All there is, is a raging feminist mob.
/10
@skjask @AS8519069463534 @thevillagerabbi @nytimes @NickKristof @RaphiStein Adina Sash for her part used this case to promote her brand. I understand that Stein appeared on a podcast for divorced men. So he said he was divorced. The divorce is in progress. People went insane. Sash saw opportunity.
/11
@skjask @AS8519069463534 @thevillagerabbi @nytimes @NickKristof @RaphiStein Many have their hearts in the right place and urge Stein to give the Gett. But they ignore that the Beis Din holds the Gett until the civil case is finished. Kohn ran to civil court first.
Stein offered her a Gett, As I understand she did not respond.
/12
@skjask @AS8519069463534 @thevillagerabbi @nytimes @NickKristof @RaphiStein People are saying that the Beis Din which nullified the BDA Seruv against Stein is fake, but then why this?
/13
@skjask @AS8519069463534 @thevillagerabbi @nytimes @NickKristof @RaphiStein There is much more that can be said. At the end of the day I believe that Adeena, Raphi, and their children should not be in the center of this firestorm.
I suspect that Adina Sash used Adeena Kohn for clout.
/14
@skjask @AS8519069463534 @thevillagerabbi @nytimes @NickKristof @RaphiStein And I would just ask people to consider — what if Adeena did receive the gett before the custody and money issues were decided, remarried, and her new “husband” called CPS on Raphi to try and keep him out of their lives for good?
May HaShem have mercy on us all. (End)
