A suspect in the murder of Detroit synagogue president Samantha Woll has been taken into custody, the Detroit Police Department said Wednesday.

Authorities say the suspect was arrested in Kalamazoo.

Woll, 40, the president of Isaac Agree Downtown Synagogue in Detroit, was found stabbed to death outside her home in Lafayette Park on Saturday, Oct. 21.

Woll attended a wedding the night before and returned home from the wedding at about 12:30 a.m. Police found no signs of forced entry into Woll's residence. Investigators believe Woll was stabbed inside her home and then made her way out to her yard, where she was found.

This dude had his life ruined after being outed as a suspect without being charged. He was ultimately found to have had nothing to do with the bombing.

Was he ever arrested? I’m talking about the police holding somebody against their will without saying who it is.

Calm down, Batman.. Police can hold someone for questioning for something like 48 hrs without charging them if they have probable cause. Something like that -- not a lawyer or criminal.
