Woll was the president of the Isaac Agree Downtown Synagogue in Detroit, Michigan, and was found stabbed to death outside of her home early on Saturday.
She is the cousin of Lisa Jewel, who is currently in the running for North Carolina’s District 98 seat. Woll had been president of the downtown Detroit synagogue since last year.
At this time, investigators have not identified a suspect or connected Woll’s death to the tensions spilling over from the Israel-Hamas war.
