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.
