Two years ago today, Detroit was shaken by a brutal killing.
Samantha Wohl, the president of the city's last synagogue,
was murdered, stabbed eight times outside of her home.
The headlines came and they went, but the questions didn't.
For a year, our reporters have been searching for the truth,
and what they found is more complicated and more haunting than anyone imagined.
Spiral murder in Detroit is out now.
Here's the trailer.
When Samantha Wall, the beloved president of the only remaining synagogue in downtown Detroit,
was murdered in October 2023, shockwaves ripped through a grieving city in a polarized world.
We didn't know how it happened, who did it.
We didn't know any of that.
And the thing is, no one has ever been convicted of her murder.
I can't say for sure who did it, but I can for sure tell you who didn't do it.
It doesn't add up.
It keeps this lingering doubt.
It doesn't put the period on the end of the sentence.
We're sitting here with an ellipsis.
It's pretty surreal that she is effectively the subject of a murder mystery saga.
It's just heart-wrenching, and all of the details of this are extremely bizarre.
