Detroit Synagogue President Samantha Woll Stabbed to Death
Breitbart ^ | 21 Oct 2023 | JOEL B. POLLAK

Samantha Woll, 40, board president of the Isaac Agree Downtown Synagogue in Detroit, Michigan, was murdered Saturday, and was found stabbed to death outside her home.

The Detroit Free Press reported:

A politically connected Detroit synagogue president was found stabbed dead this morning outside her home in the city’s Lafayette Park neighborhood, east of downtown.

Samantha Woll, 40, led the Isaac Agree Downtown Detroit Synagogue and previously worked for Congresswoman Elissa Slotkin and on the re-election campaign of Attorney General Dana Nessel, both Democrats.

“I am shocked, saddened and horrified to learn of Sam’s brutal murder,” Nessel said in a statement. “Sam was as kind a person as I’ve ever known. She was driven by her sincere love of her community, state and country. Sam truly used her faith and activism to create a better place for everyone.”

President Biden spoke out against antisemitism and Islamophobia in an Oval Office address last week:

You know, and here at home, we have to be honest with ourselves. In recent years, too much hate has been given too much oxygen, fueling racism, a rise in antisemitism and Islamicphobia [Islamophobia] right here in America.

It’s also intensified in the wake of recent events that led to the horrific threats and attacks that both shock us and break our hearts.

No motive has yet been identified, but Jewish institutions have been under threat ever since the Palestinian terror group Hamas carried out a massive attack in Israel on October 7, murdering over 1,400 people.

I wonder who did the deed. Stabbing a person is a very intimate affair.

I’m sure the Biden Administration will blame MAGA hat wearing White supremacists for her death.

Just a coincidence.

Did she speak out about the Jan. 6th Political Prisoners? I doubt it. So sorry babe, no sympathy from this FReeper.

It’s also a very Muslim thing.

Could just be a regular Detroit stabbing or could be an anti-semitic attack.

Hamas is here in the US.

The attack of October 7 represents the largest US
terrorist death rate since 911.

I say we give the Palestinians New York City in exchange for peace.

It will be interesting if she was targeted because of her religion.

My question might be whether she was backing the Palestinians against the evul Zionists. A lot of secular Jews are.

My guess is that this will turn out to be personal, not political.

Check out the boyfriends, and / or girlfriends.
