They’re committing the anti-semitisms that Americans won’t commit:
Sean Samitt, 26, is accused of making up a story about being attacked and stabbed outside a West Bloomfield synagogue, the Detroit Free Press reports. Samitt claimed the attacker was ranting anti-Semitic rhetoric when he stabbed and punched him in the parking lot of Temple Kol Ami on Dec. 15, police said.
The assault never happened, police said after an investigation that included detectives, K9 units and a search for the suspect that turned up no evidence of an attack outside the synagogue where Samitt worked, the report said. Police did find blood bloody tissues in Samitt’s office, the men’s bathroom and on a knife in the kitchen. Samitt eventually admitted to intentionally stabbing himself, police said.
I suspect that’s a clue to the deep, dark secret of the Rabbi Small series by Harry Kemelman. Barnard’s Crossing was playing host to a serial killer all along.
