Murderer Flees to Israel After Crime

Why was he allowed to flee back to Israel after stabbing a

thirteen-year-old American boy over one hundred times,

dismembering the body with a saw, and trying to burn the

remains? In 1997, seventeen-year-old

Samuel Sheinbein committed one of the most horrific murders in

recent American history, and it happened in Maryland.

He lured a thirteen-year-old American child into a basement

and stabbed him over one hundred 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.
