Murderer Flees to Israel After Crime

Why was he allowed to flee back to Israel after stabbing a 13 year old American boy

over 100 times,

dismembering the body with a saw and trying to burn the remains?

In 1997, 17 year old Samuel Sheinbein committed one of the most horrific murders

in recent American history, and it happened in Maryland.

He lured a 13 year old American child into a basement and stabbed him

over 100 times.

He then dismembered his body with

a saw and tried to burn the pieces.

But before he could face any consequences, he fled to Israel.

When the United States requested his extradition, Israel, of course, refused,

citing the Law of Return,

which protects Jewish citizens from being sent back to face justice

in other countries.

The United States did not push the issue,

instead sent billions in aid that same year.

So a brutal child murderer escaped

American justice because like so many other Israelis that have come to the

United States and committed crimes against American children,

he was allowed to run home where Israel shielded him from consequences.

After all, in their eyes, it was only an American child.

And it seems the American government agrees.
