‘Person of interest' in Detroit synagogue leader Samantha Woll's murder case is in police custody
2023-12-11
[NY Post] Strange. In Non-WOT for now
A new "person of interest" was taken into custody in connection to the murder of Detroit synagogue leader Samantha Woll on Sunday, a month after a different person was taken in and questioned by investigators, but later released, according to police and reports.

"[The Detroit Police Department] can confirm that a person of interest has been taken into custody in furtherance of the investigation into the murder of Samantha Woll," the department said in a statement to The Post.

"In an effort to ensure the integrity of this ongoing investigation, no further details will be released at this time. Additional information will be released in the near future."

Woll, president of the Isaac Agree Downtown Detroit Synagogue, was found stabbed to death outside her home on October 21.

A suspect was taken into custody in November but was later released without being charged.

The latest possible suspect, an unidentified man, was not an acquaintance of Woll and appears to be a total stranger, the Detroit News reported, citing two sources familiar with the investigation.

The man detained Sunday is also not the same person who was taken into custody last month, sources confirmed to the newspaper.

Woll, 40, was killed as the US has faced a wave of antisemitism following the start of the Israel-Hamas conflict, but authorities have stressed the slaying was not driven by hate.

A Muslim/sympathiser "stricking" against "Gazan genocide", or Wakandan striking against "white racism"?
