Court: Driver suspected of killing teen may go to synagogue on Yom Kippur
A judge on Monday permitted Eli Bar Zakai — suspected of fatally running down a 13-year-old boy while drunk — to leave his home on Yom Kippur to pray at a nearby synagogue, but rejected his appeal to be released from house arrest.
Bar Zakai ran over Eylon Shalev-Amsalem in late August and was charged last month with manslaughter, causing grievous bodily harm, obstructing an investigation, tampering with evidence, drunk driving and speeding.
