The accused in this case is Michael Manuel Jackson Bolanos.

That announcement coming less than 15 minutes ago,

wrapping up a 53-day investigation into her murder.

No hate crime whatsoever, according to investigators.

There's been a lot of pressure on police to bring forward what they had on this case

to put the bed any situation.

It would have been a hate crime because of Ms. Wall's position as a prominent Jewish leader in our community.

I also think that her notoriety, her role in the community brought a lot of different agencies in,

and they kind of rushed it versus, you know, taking a step back and just really, really diving

deep into what really happened. Mr. Brown's client had a coat and that coat had her blood on it.

And I think that is something that we should all focus on.

I guess I can't say for sure who did it, but I can for sure tell you who didn't do it.

It's November 7, 2023 in a parking lot in Kalamazoo, Michigan.

And Jeffrey Herbsman is laying on the ground next to his car. It's nighttime, completely dark outside.

The police have just arrived, and he's telling the cops,

he thinks he might have killed his ex-girlfriend, Samantha Wall.

But he can't remember.

Do you have any weapons or anything on you?

No.

Okay, there's a knife in the car.

Okay.
