Samantha Woll, 40, was the president of the Isaac Agree Downtown Synagogue.

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.

    And the way your framing this intentionally diminishes the clear rise in Anti Semitic violence we’re seeing across America and the world.

    Yeah my dude, violence against minority populations has risen across the board in the last few years. That’s kinda a known issue when people start electing white supremacists.

    What we were speaking of specifically is people committing violence against Jewish people for their perceived association with the actions of the Israeli state.

    We have clear recent examples demonstrating that your argument doesn’t hold up.

    Do we though? I mean, I’m not combing over the Internet for Islamic reprisal attacks on Jewish Americans, but I haven’t seen attacks that would justify your claim.

    You’re an Anti Semite and you’re disgusting.

    You know every time you inappropriately utilize that label it diminishes its impact and warps its definition. Just because someone doesn’t agree with your point of view, doesn’t mean they hate your entire race. It’s kinda ridiculous to attempt to frame it that way considering the historical context.
