New York/JTA — The U.S. Supreme
Court paved the way for a third trial
stemming from the 1991 Crown
Heights riots.
The high court decided this week
not to consider a defense request to
throw out charges against Lemrick
Nelson stemming from the riots in
Brooklyn. During those riots, a
Chasidic man, Yankel Rosenbaum,
was fatally stabbed during black vio-
lence that followed the death of Gavin
Cato, a black child hit by a car in a
Chasidic motorcade.
After an- appeals court, citing techni-
calities, in January overturned the con-
victions of Lemrick Nelson and
Charles Price for civil rights violations
in the 1991 murder of Yankel
Rosenbaum, the Anti-Defamation
League wrote the Justice Department
to continue the case. The department's
civil rights division subsequently
affirmed the office's commitment to
continue to pursue meaningful and
serious punishment" against Nelson.
Price struck a plea bargain in April
for 11 years and eight months in
prison, but Nelson's case is still pend-
ing.

Religion Report
Slams Israel

Washington/JTA — Most non-Jewish
Israeli citizens continue to be subject
to religious discrimination, according
to a State Department report.
Reiterating much of its criticism
from last year, the department said in
its annual International Religious
Freedom report that Israeli govern-
ment funding to religious institutions
still tends to favor Jewish citizens. In
Russia, the report said, anti-Semitic
leaflets, graffiti and articles continue to
appear.
