Times Herald-Record September 07, 2007 Kiryas Joel — A native of this Satmar Hasidic village, Toby Greenberg is not unfamiliar with the strict mores of her ultra-Orthodox community. But she never expected to be persecuted for choosing to dress slightly differently. Unlike most Kiryas Joel women, who wear long, dark dresses or skirts and simple blouses in public, Greenberg, 25, wears colorful shirts, wigs and denim skirts. And that, in the eyes of a clandestine group of inquisitors, constitutes immoral behavior. Greenberg and her husband, Yoel, awoke Tuesday morning to find the tires of their silver Chevy Impala slashed and white oil-based paint splashed on their new, black Mazda CX-7. Written in white paint on the Mazda were Hebrew words that Greenberg interpreted in English as "get out" and "defiled person." State police Sgt. Warner Hein said troopers are treating the incident as criminal mischief and are interviewing residents for potential leads. פאר די גאנצע ארטיקעל גייט דא http://www.recordonline.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070907/NEWS/709070320
