Man charged with murder of Jewish leader Samantha Woll

Detroit: A stranger has been charged with the killing of local Jewish leader Samantha Woll, according to prosecutors.

Michael Jackson-Bolanos, 28, appears to be a random stranger, Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy said at a press conference Wednesday announcing the charges.

Worthy said investigators believe Bolanos killed Woll during a larceny or home invasion. Bolanos allegedly lied to police about committing larcenies or attempted larcenies from motor vehicles the day of Woll's death.

Woll, 40, was stabbed to death Oct. 21 inside her home in the Lafayette Park neighborhood on Detroit's east side, police said. After the attack, Woll stumbled out of her house and collapsed on her front lawn, according to investigators.

I guess? . . .

Still leaves us without her guidance when we could use it most of all.

Damn this world can be a frustrating, inadequate place for so many horrid reasons.

It contains homes designed by famous architects such as Mies van der Rohe. This is not a random series of events, believe me. This guy went where “the rich folks are”.
