No--she is not Jewish. She married a guy who was born Jewish, but now seemed to be very active in a local Episcopal church.
Well .. his name is Jewish - but I am aware that he attends an Episcopal Church - however, that doesn't stop him from continuing to be Jewish.
However, if she's not Jewish - maybe that's why they killed the husband - and the mother was just collateral damage.
I know that's harsh - but killers do not think logically - if they did - I don't think they'd be killers.
I hope people in Chicago keep us informed about what's going on with this case. Very disturbing event.
