A Detroit synagogue president was found fatally stabbed outside her home Saturday morning.

Samantha Woll, 40, led the congregation of Isaac Agree Downtown Synagogue. The synagogue confirmed Woll’s death Saturday in a statement writing, “We are shocked and saddened to learn of the unexpected death of Samantha Woll, our Board President.”

“May her memory be a blessing,” the statement continued.

Authorities said a 911 call was made to Woll’s home early Saturday, reporting an individual lying on the ground unresponsive. Police discovered multiple stab wounds on Woll’s body and found a trail of blood leading to her house, where they believe the crime occurred.

An investigation is underway. At this time, the motive for the crime remains unknown.

    They know no one outside of their cult is going to support them even if the Israeli government succeeds in committing genocide, don’t they?

    Even if in their eyes we are blatant hypocrites, it’d be better to be a hypocrite than to give people like that an inch.

      It still stands as an example of a successful ethnostate. It’s also a destination where they can claim that Jews can be expelled to and that it should be “fine”.

        And no one listens to white supremacists because we understand life is not black and white like that, and by their reputation alone, white supremacists will never ever get what they want.
