White South African Murders page: Murders of Whites from 1996 to 2016
On this page, are collections of the names and details of Whites who were murdered during the period 1996 to 2016. The true number of Whites killed in South Africa since 1994, is stupendous, and nobody has got even a fraction of all the names. But this is the most comprehensive collection that the Boere State Party has currently. My own attorney told me that he thinks 100,000 Whites have been murdered during Black rule.

US police have called for calm after the president of a US synagogue was found dead with multiple stab wounds.

Police say the motive behind Samantha Woll’s murder “is unknown” and enlisted the help of the FBI in the probe.

Woll, 40, was highly regarded in her community and her murder has left many shocked, seeking answers.

Detroit – The president of a US synagogue was found dead, with stab wounds, outside her home on Saturday, as police cautioned against speculation over the motive for the murder.

Police requested FBI assistance in investigating the slaying of Samantha Woll, 40, who presided over the Isaac Agree Downtown Synagogue, which serves metropolitan Detroit.

Police Chief James White urged "that everyone remain patient" while the investigation is under way, despite "many unanswered questions".

"It is important that no conclusions be drawn until all of the available facts are reviewed," White said in a statement. "An update… will be forthcoming tomorrow."

The murder came amid escalating tensions in Jewish and Muslim communities across the United States over the Israel-Hamas conflict that has taken thousands of lives this month.

Emergency personnel found Woll dead "with multiple stab wounds to her body", police said. A trail of blood led officers to Woll’s nearby home, "which is where the crime is believed to have occurred".

The motive in the killing "is unknown", a police statement added.

The Detroit office of the FBI told AFP in an email that it "will assist the Detroit Police Department as requested".

‘Shocked, saddened, horrified’

"We are shocked and saddened to learn of the unexpected death of Samantha Woll, our Board President," the synagogue posted on its Facebook page. "At this point we do not have more information."

Woll, who led the synagogue since 2022, was also active in Democratic Party affairs, working for US congresswoman Elissa Slotkin and on the campaign of Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel, the Detroit Free Press said.

"I am shocked, saddened and horrified to learn of Sam’s brutal murder. Sam was as kind a person as I’ve ever known," Nessel posted on X, formerly Twitter.

Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan said he was "devastated" to learn of Woll’s death.

Duggan posted on X:

Just weeks ago, I shared a day of joy with Sam at the dedication of the newly renovated Downtown Synagogue.
"It was a project she successfully led with great pride and enthusiasm."

Slotkin, who served as a CIA officer before entering Congress, said Woll sought to build "understanding across faiths, bringing light in the face of darkness".

The Free Press said Woll had been active in a grassroots organisation aimed at building ties between young Muslims and Jews.

A Muslim member of the US House representing the Detroit area, Rashida Tlaib, described Woll as "my friend" and said she was "shocked" at the murder.

"I have no words," Tlaib posted on Facebook.
