It involves a convicted sex offender; a Hasidic multimillionaire oil and diamond dealer; a drug addict; a New York assemblyman; a supporting cast of ultra-Orthodox rabbis, private investigators, victims' advocates, bloggers and lawyers - including Alan Dershowitz - and a cache of secretly taped conversations.
