Police officials in Detroit on Monday said they were close to naming a suspect in the brutal stabbing murder of Isaac Agree Synagogue President Samantha Woll, who was found outside of her home on Saturday morning, and they’re “confident” her death was not a hate crime, the Messenger reports.
Pretty fucked up that we’re marginally relieved that the horrific murder of a 40 year-old faith leader appears to have been what appears to be some personal crime of passion (no signs of forced entry, per cops), but given the similarly horrific stabbing murder of a 6 year-old Palestinian-American boy by some MAGA scumbag in Illinois last week coming amid major tensions stirred by the Israel-Hamas war, it was on our minds based on the initial reporting. Still awful, less awful than it could’ve been.
