Samantha Woll, a prominent Jewish community leader and social justice activist in Detroit, was found dead outside her home on October 21. Woll, who was also a synagogue president and Democratic Party adviser, was reportedly returning home from a wedding when she was fatally stabbed in the Lafayette Park neighborhood. Her death sparked an outpouring of emotion among Jewish and Democratic leaders.

In the wake of the incident, Detroit police arrested a suspect in connection with the murder. The suspect, whose identity has not been released, was taken into custody in Kalamazoo, about 140 miles west of Detroit. However, the suspect was later released without charges, according to his attorney. The release was in accordance with Michigan state law, which requires criminal suspects to be charged within 72 hours of their arrest.

The Detroit police and the Wayne County Prosecutor's Office have not confirmed the release of the suspect. The details of the investigation remain confidential, and the police chief has stated that the killing was not a hate crime. As of now, the Detroit Free Press reported that the prosecutor's office said it had not received a warrant request in the killing of Woll.

The arrest was the first major development in the murder investigation. However, the release of the suspect without charges has added a new layer of complexity to the case. The investigation is ongoing, and further updates are awaited.
