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.

    The point is that it’s an objective fact that the threat to human life from the far left vs the far right has not been at all comparable in recent decades in the US. It just hasn’t. The far left has committed a lot of violence against property, but has almost entirely stayed away from interpersonal violence. This is not true of the far right which to the contrary has racked up a pretty impressive body-count over the last 10 or so years.

      Yes I agree that when you change what the discussion is about, the facts will differ.
